The Dallas CowboysTHE DALLAS COWBOYS
Can you not hear the rumblings of that distant herd coming,
The loud thundering of destiny’s champions crossing, the NFL
Field of dreams, beware the rampaging lightening team known
As the Dallas Cowboys, for they are the hail storms victorous
Breed, the eye of the hurricane riders,...

Dallas - November 1993Flyin south to Dallas
in a cold November rain
with this continental climate
weather there may be the same.
There’s money from two countries
janglin in my purse
and stories from two families
caught up in this verse.
The airplane’s almost empty
and I’m stretched across two seats
tryin to connect things
that are always out...

Tragedy Occurred In Dallas, Texas - Usa 2016Tragedy Occurred in Dallas, Texas (USA) 2016
A sniper
A peace fight
Police officers lost their lives.
From the highest tower,
Shots are fired.
Over what is stated to be the white man crimes.
Of oppression and a racist society
A peace fight transpired.
Five officers died.
We mourn and we cry,
Shouting the...

What We Should Learn From DallasWhat We Should Learn From Dallas
By Franklin Price
7/8/2016
What we should learn from Dallas
And the tragedy we pan,
Policemen killed cold bloodedly
By a sicken minded man.
Took advantage of a protest,
Of killing elsewhere by police;
Despised black on white authority,
If cops are dead it has...

The Cocaine Wolves of the DallasThe cocaine wolves of Dallas. Sink your teeth into the night until they are numb, the beasts are lurking about looking for a cigarette to bum.
The cocaine wolves of Dallas, and everybody carries a knife. Slickback your hair and tighten your laces of the...

Zydeco After DallasWashboard and spoons
Guitar and drums
Accordion
Getting together
With the band
A moment not about skin
But about soul
A party not about race
But about rhythm
Take a stand
(or perhaps a dance)
Against hate
Yell a little
Prance a little
Live, love a lot
Making music
While joining hands...

Dallas LightsShe looked up at the blue green Dallas lights,
Sparkling in the warm night air,
Blowing across her face.
What perfect lives they must lead in those lights,
While she sells her soul,
For one more tiny rock....

This is evil;
This is the lion roaring through the streets,
Across the planet in all its towns;
And there is no answer, save one.
Prayer by all to the God above,
That in His gentle love, he will erase;
The thoughts of killing from the human race;
That the Lion and...

Fun For a Price DallasOld City Park I went last night,
Admission price, it's outta sight,
Night it was the weather was cold,
Many were there young and the old,
Hotel, office, homes to go through,
Better walk fast else you turn blue,
With Walt, Diane, Baby, and me,
The hotel first on things to see,
It...

Dallas, Texas 1963She scrambled
from where she sat
in the back seat
climbing onto the
trunk of that
long luxurious Lincoln
not to escape an
assassin's assault
as many assumed
but to collect the shards of
skull and bits of brain
that had been blown
back onto it as a bullet
blasted a hole in his head
his body lolling over...

Alice from Dallas
There was a shyster from Dallas
whose lies were full of malice.
He groped the wrong girl
whose anger unfurled.
So now, they call him Alice....
