Best Alongs Poems

The sun sinks slow when dreaded dark overflows
giving mere mortals moments to reflect
all that passes in the day these moments take away
 and each influence intrinsically inspect

we have known of old the conflict we are told
is the battle between bad and good
what is right, what...

Pete's dive bar piano man 
Play the guests all requests
Popular sing alongs
Pleasing with tin pan songs
Prime tunes everyone knows 
Period piece musical 
Porter's "Anything Goes"...

On January the 11th
We embarked on this beautiful journey
I trusted you with my heart
I knew you wouldn't hurt me
I glance at my left hand on my ring finger 
And the ring sings
Beautiful things
Your love and devotion
Gives me wings 
Gives me something I never had
My kids...

Daylight dies
Blackout the sky
Does anyone care
Is anyone there 
Enjoy this life 
Pop open a Sprite 
Roll over to the right and kiss my wife 
She's fast asleep
Daylight is trynna come 
It's trynna creep 
When she wakes up she feel the wetness of the kiss 
On...

Two weeks of summer camping we spent 
Helping mom and dad pitch the tent 
Sweet memories of campfires and s'mores 
Enjoying time in the great outdoors 

Walking the trails on nature hikes 
Around the campground riding our bikes 
Sing alongs around the campfire 
Hot cocoa...

after all those sleepless nights
i figured it out.
I'm not sick without you
I don't even miss you.
a piece of our sex is stuck in my sinuses;
like a virus is.

i can't remember how it felt to be inside you,
but i can taste it when i spit.
Your sweat...

It was a week before Christmas
He knew many kids were about to receive presents
Didn’t care too much for Sing-Alongs 
Rather obsessed about Mr. Benjamin,
And his flock of Dead Presidents,
Living among the outcasts
Most couldn’t grasp how his daily went,
He was only 15 years old,
Already prepping for...

Brezsny in quotes:

"Bestow a blessing on a person you've considered to be beneath you
or alien to you."

Donald, may your future communications involve both deeper listening
and comprehensively ecological learning
about our cooperative potential as individually evolving parents,
and as group, or even international, health administrators,
facilitators of and for...

I've got to warn you of my songs,
Although they're fun and rhyme,
They aren't all sing-alongs,
Nor happy all the time.
So reader enter, if you dare,
My convoluted mind.
For like Pandora's box,
It's thoughts, you can't unfind....

what happened to me
why is my head in my hands
for hours on the floor
im not crying
tears of boredom
the song rolls
the song rolls
couldnt see this happening to me
but here we go again
whats happening to me
my head on the floor
all day again
my hands on my head
caving in...

Sing-alongs and love songs, hymns for those taboos
Cheatin’ songs and drinking songs, now I just sing the blues....

The brave man or woman, like sunshine, speaks his/her truth.
The get-a-alongs, say nothing new, afraid to rock the boat.

It takes all kinds to make the world work.
I’d like much more courage, than seeing others going through life 
with a insensitive smirk.

I cannot plant the love...

(*The Gift)
This here is a side trip, nothing more,
To our country home far and away.
Grandparents own one by the seashore,
This a gift, gramps in-law and mentor,
They raised teen/gramps, not a runaway.

Gramps helped older sis and him, farming.
I think gramps was fourteen at those times.
Great aunt...

The local girls are Asian, South Korean, Japanese,
Chinese, Vietnamese.
A few runaway Muslim chicks.
War is a man-shaped demon.

War is booze and guns, fistfights,
Humvees and frying, flying limbs.
What's a young man to do?
He does it, then lives to die later.

Madam Butterfly has a missile launcher.
Flower-drum songs and...
