Best Boz Poems

Fifty years, boy and man, I’ve been a Sooners fan;
And watched thousands of recruits try to make my Sooners Team.
Often, I’ve enviously wondered what it must be like
To be a touted Sooners recruit, living out his dream.

He’d had a great career through high school;
Made good...

delight in the week
end-even with no plans much
comp dinner is fun 

with friends not seen in
a bit meet in the middle
for some great tex mex

will have my usual
then cucumber martini
which defines delight

maybe get to see

catch Boz on the phone

We’re bait.
Bait for the beasts
Waiting to feast on the meat
To say the least
The world is stripped when they meet

So bathe
In social incest, along with decadence
And decay

Pray to your gods
Whichever they may be
Many are among us
We’re too blind to see
They look down from above
Or up from...

Trials of man since the days of old
On common ground treachery would unfold
Lives are sold
Lives are lost
For the price of gold
Or whatever the cost
But the cost is more than you can bear, for one
Because your soul will belong to the Rising Son

…I am everywhere...
In the...

Resilient, defiant, humble, perceptive
Son of Antone and Selia
Lover of philosophy, romance, and justice
Who feels pain, wrath, and euphoria
Who fears, aside from God, having no fear
Who would like to see heaven, hell, and everything in between

When someone gives me a penny for my thoughts
They end up putting their two cents in
Because by then they are actually caught
Deep in the intense, immense conversation
How would you handle my situation?
Better be firm when you stand tall
Or you will surely fall
(Too weak to defeat...

So there I go…
Searching for a new life
And yet, another soul

God only knows
What I’ve been through
And what will unfold
-- It’s a sad story to be told
The bitter-sweet memories of old
When words are worthless
And actions seem powerless
Who am I to try to “second-guess”?

Picking up where I...

The warmth of his morning sun as looking back ? Boz Scaggs, reeling in these times
Haven't faced this wind in quite awhile now; running about tiny circles going nowhere
Learned to shut windows their seperations long ago...

Over-power the masses single-handedly
One against many, against any calamity
Exhaust a man's will
To bend at his own
So what if it kills (him)
--The man has no soul--
Grew stronger by the day
Fueled by love and hate
A ruler and a slave
Together in hell
In a shell as hollow as his...

born February 7, 1812,
whose living descendents
I would be thrilled to befriend,
hence if anonymous reader
by some genetic fluke 
linkedin to said 
prolific storied author 
please kindly reciprocate.

greetings mutual friend,
hard times dash 
great expectations in this bleak house,
whereby battle of life ensues 
when Sunday chimes

The summer scene
So blissful and serene

A bright sun shines
Over baby-blue skies
Upon a mountainous view
Bringing pleasure to my eyes

It’s great to be alive!
Breathe in the air
Feel a surge inside
As it flows through

Something beyond compare
There is no way to describe
There is no way I can share
What I...

Opening of the gates
The non-existent waits
To judge your mortal fate
Among the human race

What’s the matter now?
Can you even tell?
When you dwell in evil
The devil sends a messenger from hell
--From hell…

Live your life the way you want
It’s time to show just what you’ve got
Fire burning hate...

The mystical journey begins
Not from out here, but within
Try hard to avoid seven sins
And obey Ten Commandments

Easier said than done
There’s nowhere left to run
Know what needs to be done
Set the example 1st born son
Let’s see if you’re the chosen one

But they chose none
Lived your life...

Searched all my life
Through every pain-staking strife
Finding “her” seen only in dreams.
Since I was a small child
I would go the extra mile
Praying one day she would find me.

As time went by
I realized life drug me dry
Totally drained of hopes and dreams.
What if it is “her”...

tears...
filled with the years of a love lost
..and of the cost
they have shed as i have bled
-- left scarred with wounds that never heal --
the kind of stuff that stays in your head
..just can't forget but can never reveal
-- man with an iron will --
determination...
