there finer limber choice
beg of me,
dig deeper near
man of full force
loud and clear...,
chase back your dream
another fat lady scream
choicer to fire
blown up in hidden dersire
an empire

A Cuban Odyssey
The welcome party’s out in style,
It wags its tail, it beams a smile;
The cabs lined up are set to go,
Resplendent as in a 1950’s pageant show.
The air is warm, the palm trees sway,
For Old Havana airport, it’s just another day.
The road to town is just a blur,
Of sights and sounds and images that stir,
Of little

Fidel Castro Reincarnated
FIDEL Castro! the Diablo of Life succumbs to Death
Castro! the devil’s advocate
orchestrated hooligans.
Kept a destructive quest.
Turned a civil nation chaotic.
Death, destruction, and demoralizing tactics
Fell tears through the land.
Millions of cries hit the skies over Cuba.
This a cry that would never stop.
Endless shouts for mercy keeps climbing to God .
The terrifying Diablo lassoed

Fidel Castro the Diablo's Death Christmas Again
Castro! the Diablo of Life succumbs to Death
Castro! the devil’s advocate
orchestrated hooligans,
and kept a destructive quest.
Turned a civil nation chaotic.
Death, destruction, and demoralizing tactics
fell tears through the land.
Millions of cries hit the skies over Cuba.
This a cry that would never stop
as even the dead keep crying
with endless shouts for mercy climbing to God

assassinate you, yet the world counted on you!
you were the evil they made us believed you were, yet Cuba had the best
Medical facility in Latin America, you saved Maradona, when

Fidel Castro
So you do know Fidel Castro? I think I do
that was the name of the mess boy, the one who
had to do the dirty dishes and clean floors
“Fy” as he was called was older than me and had
a much better education, and I, as his boss felt his
contempt being told

Castro
Once a person goes to Castro likes Sports
Otherwise he is poorly served
When service is bad
One goes to other BBQ
when in other BBQ
One reminds Castro
When Castro is reminded
1 -Wanda Jackson sings
2 -Moore gains new convictions
3 -The Kiss go on the road again and I travel to Europe
Life becomes hectic
Back in Newark
Dave Muscatine give me a look/I reply back
Dave dance

Fidel Castro Is Older
So it was your day and yours alone.
Decades have gone by and you look just younger!
Fidel Castro my childhood leaning and adult fantasies.
I was elated to hear you're older because they say when,
you are older time goes twice as fast!
Yet you you seem over the hill with sweet music and melody!
My brother, my brow roared
