...Why all the fuss?
Having trouble with calculus?

Why Are We Here

...We create androids, like God creates men.
To live forever, to live without sin.

The games of young boys, teach them how to be.

Camelot

...Some claimed that Camelot was noble,
a place built upon the stony ground
of good-intentions,

...I'm an old fashioned fellow
In a new-fangled world,
A square peg in a very round hole.
Gone's the world I grew up in,
This one's in a tailspin
And spiraling out of control.

The Bygones

...Eroding names on long-faced headstones,
a small graveyard marooned on a patch of past;
long rooted and confined while beside it
2022 blares unseeing past the forgotten lot.

...A stubborn old man from Palm Springs
has no patience with new-fangled things
He hates cars—he’ll just walk
and a sundial’s his clock
He won’t fly until God gives him wings

and warm sultry summer nights

Dad

...Dad could roll a cigarette
with just two fingers
and the tip of his tongue.
I saw him do this once
in a wind storm.

Carpe Diem

...The mountains look down their nose at us all.
With disdain they find the facts of mans fall.

They remember those who climbed their north face.
Made it to the top then to outer space.

sometimes hands will wipe my face
every second counts my days
My forlorn voice

So we hung our clothes out on the line to dry
with those old wooden clothes pins, you know
