I am a stranger in an alien land,
Always searching  for eternal youth,
Controlled by an aristocracy with

The food banks are booming
Hardly a state of joy and glory
As the world prepares to celebrate
That  age old Nativity Story.

A season of conspicuous...

I've often thought about the glue
  that binds fifty states together
What exactly is it substance
  How does it adhere and accrue

I am a wood carver by instinct and intuition;
I am not a wood carver by trade or profession.

Away from all humans, they seek to hide,
Live off 'aina with...
