Cubby's
At Cubby's, the neon hums/
A beacon in the night/
A place for solace/
But now a source of plight/
I stood there, a truth on my lips, unplanned/
Asked the clerk to be kind, to lend a gentler hand/
But shadows lingered/
Where light should've been/
Through masks of smiles, deceit crept in/
Their whispers turned to chains/
Forged in lies/
A verdict handed down/
Under

Falsely Accused
In 1996 they came, shadows in the night/
Declared the case is bigger than me/
Told me not to fight/
Threats and whispers, like a storm they flew/
But my heart of gold knows, I stayed true/
A light too pure to dim/
A soul they sought to taint/
With accusations dark/
They painted me with paint/
A heart of gold, forged in flames

Unjustified Hate
I am an innocent soul, by fate betrayed/
From God's embrace, my spirit swayed/
Every Church, a door now sealed/
In shadows dark, my fate revealed/
Through the Qliphoth's maze, I stumble on/
Occult's dark arts, a journey drawn/
Seeking truth where light is scarce/
In void and silent war/
From the hospitals cold embrace, I rose/
Survivor of many suicide attempts, life's

I stand accused of being a mouse
i hide behind my shell
and don't say boo
until i loosen up and can be me
a simple glass of cabernet
helps chisel off the edges
rounds those prickly corners
they that keep me guarded

You Falsely Accused A Metal Head
I have been falsely accused many times/
I was at a concert and came home/
I get off the bus and the police were looking for me/
I jumped out the second story window/
And ran because I'm innocent/
She falsely accused a metal head/
I lost my mind, the stress and shock began to develop/
I developed Fatal Familial Insomnia, lost

Why?
Why did you do this to me/
I did not do that/
Is it because I'm not Christian, just why/
Simply... Clear my name/
I did not do that/
Why did you do this to me/
I never done nothing to you/
You robbed me of a life/
May you go to Hell/
For what you did to me/
I'm haunted and scarred for life/

the accused
the accused chose a circuitous explanation
it seemed to wander over under, around and through
then he added other explanations to explain the first one
we tried to follow his rationale but it was like running a maze
He never answered any of the questions directly
appeared evasive, and unsure about his whereabouts and such
the jury seemed tired of his

Of Spider Abuse, I'D Not Be Accused
It was never my intent to collect the creepy crawlers
but I couldn't make myself swat them with a broom.
I thought they might be useful one day, on brawlers
who make trouble, like aphids on roses in bloom.
So, the meshed bag became the receptacle I used
to keep them alive. One by one, I joined them together
but fed

Almost Accused of Murder
It is not the kind of conversation that is exigent to the circumstances.
When questioned, we could have feigned its importance, but why?
It was a superfluous conversation, and no one should have asked.
But the police detectives did, because there was a murder to solve
Mrs. Peets, the main detective used multifarious methods to get us to talk.
Attempted

Falsely Accused
Your trial comes not from God
please be not confused James 1:13
Because at present Gods will incomplete
don't be by Satan subdued
God will in his own timeline act
in a way beneficial to all
We have the opportunity to show God
our love unselfishly answering his call
Not bought with reward as was said of Job

I'Ve Been Accused
I've been accused of
Seeing you in warmth, and
Splendor of each new moment
Letting me feel what I feel,
As though I should
Feel this unspeakable portion
Like fresh fallen dew.
It melts my emotion then
Arouses it again and again -
This suspension in raw air,
I hold and carry us
Undisturbed
In quiet confines of my being.

She hits him and he falls to sleep

No Longer Accused Nor Cursed Just Rebirth In Christ Jesus-
As I emerge into view;
Into this room;
Out of the womb;
From the fallopian tube;
Proceedings walking down;
Golden stairs from heaven;
A kiss a breath of God through my mother's nostrils;
I am emerged;
I am birth;
Cursed;
a solemn utterance intend invoke by Father Adam;
Convicted a sinner from birth through his blood line;
Now freed by remissions of sin;
Confessing through the blood of

Unfairly Accused
She went swimming in the China Sea
Where monsters of various types could be
One bit her leg
She blamed me, Peg
Incredibly miffed, I drank her tea

Been Accused of Being a Flirt
Been accused of being a flirt, that's not my style
When I compliment a waitress along with a smile
No harm, no foul
I'm not on the prowl
Just trying to brighten this fillies day for a while
