At nights we’d sit out on the balcony drinkin Breathin That thick mug air Of a New Orleans summer evening. Livin as easy As they’d let us In the bowels of the Irish Channel Where magnolias bloom all year long Amidst the cracked walks And hungry dogs Not quite getting enough From the day’s trash. Crumpled ashcans turned asunder Over the curbing and into the street Like it’s some...

Keeping up with the Jones I still try It's dog eat dog neath a vicious sky All the finer things that you demand This rat race has gotten out of hand I toil and strain just to bridge the gap The weight of life heavy on my lap A token reward to earn my pay The burden tests my will every day Try...
