Standing Tall

Salamander Eating samples of steak Standing tall While the owl on the branches chewing grapes coffee mongrel shopping pit bull dancing straight Standing tall Always wondered whose on first base television my religion has nothing to do with your hate must be plastic because you're so dramatic I can't relate Standing tall something bothering you your chewing on your shoe if you were an animal I would be you Standing tall even handed thrown baseballs writing novels, spitting anvils at the walls who an I to alter Standing tall Salamander writing novels, spitting marbles in the hall no encouragement just resentment after all standing tall still coffee mongrels, shopping pit-bulls dancing straight, still can't relate all you wanna be is great Mutual of Omaha, Woodman Tower, 30 Rockerfellow, Eiffel Tower mirrors on the floors and walls...still Standing Tall 03/05/15 written by James Edward Lee Sr.
