"I smell A.I. as it coldly brushes against me, stiff and analytical in it's digital analysis of my heartbeat, falling short in quantifying that which is experienced within my soul,,,,, this while though presenting the perfect picture of representation, lack's the true seasonings and flavor of life."
Darrell
A.I. attempts to understand the human experience,,,,, breaking it down into digital bits.... "ones and zeros" as we engineers call it. The outward picture comes quite close to an accurate representation of the heartbeat of humanity yet lacks any flavor ,,, any smell,,, any true understanding of my heart and soul .....
I live! I taste! I smell the flavors of life and I pity the paltry machines and their operators who will never know my joys, my heartache, my laughter, my pain, my victory, my loss, my love or my sorrow...
For the gods themselves stand in envy of my mortality !
I sit here at my piano
hands don’t know where to start
It seems I can’t escape
the pains of this broken heart
I try so hard to remember
why everything went so wrong
I can’t seem to find the music
My soul can’t find a song. (Stop and hold)
I use to be so happy
as my fingers danced upon these keys
Then one day she came into my life
and snuffed out those memories (building anger)
Yeah she came along and broke my heart
And she threw it on the floor
The best day of my life
Was the day she walked out the door (play!)
My life is so much better now
I’m beginning to live again
I’m so much better without her
And this joy that lives within (Enjoy!)
my friends are coming around again
I’m so happy to be free
Cause I’m here to tell you my friends
The music still lives in me
So now if you’ll excuse me
I ask you to raise your glass
Let’s celebrate this time together
As I kick this piano’s ass. (Shred)

Written for my friend Jeremiah.
May he find the joy once more.

Christmas is here
The family is gathering at Darrell & Lola's
Bowling alley this year
For a few good laughs
And lots of good beer
Potluck don't have to cook
Our host this year
First time for everything
It will be like a big premiere
Open taps
Little ones doing laps
Lights flashing
Teenagers dashing
Pins smashing
Music blasting
White elephant laughing
One big Christmas celebration
With family dedication
Grandma's feeling the holiday sensation
All of us living the positive vibrations
Wish we all could have been there this year
Open door the bowling alley being a grand host
And so much more
Something for the whole family
So well done
I believe I can speak for everyone
This holiday event was so much fun
It's hard to believe Christmas at grandma's
Being outdone
I believe that we all have won
Christmas with the family this year
Was so much more than good cheer
We should make it a holiday tradition
Darrell & Lola have truly spun
This memorable day for everyone
A few of us feel like we are going to peel
Nothing like sharing a good holiday meal
How getting together with family
Really makes your soul feel
Together with loved ones priceless
And the memories are so real
A family that plays together
Stays together
See you all next Christmas
Put it on your calendar
To be here next year
For more family fun
And holiday good cheer
MERRY CHRISMAS
&
HAPPY NEW YEAR
I’m alone and scared lying in my bed
with a cold wet sweat running down my head
In heart-pounding fear I will soon be fed
To a big hairy creature of my dread
A green ugly monster with long sharp claws
Yellow, spotted teeth and powerful jaws
a long, pointed tail and twelve massive paws
Who takes away children that break Mom’s laws
Then Mom comes in with a tuck and a kiss
Switches on the night lamp and fears dismiss
I peek 'neath the bed and find to my bliss
No monster lurks around, nothing's amiss
Now I can go to sleep, all fears allayed
Towards dreamland, I soar, no more dismayed
But I know this giant will not be swayed
And come back if I ever disobeyed.

Darrell Rose and Joanna Daniel
Streams of passion with their ebbs and flows as waters dancing to rivers twisting call, so my obsessions rise and in time they sleep growing and fading bringing change to my life.
Directions and pressures guide me through this world and though I attempt to control them it is they that often do me as I stand a creature refined..... yet… maybe not......
Driven by the needs and passions of nature, existing on this earth spinning without purpose gone in a flicker leaving no more than a vapor of thought.
What was thought important and tied to a universe of beliefs found pointless and inconsequential in the rush of the galaxies.
Thus I choose…… to let passion reign.
Darrell
I stand in quiet anticipation of the sleeping lion within me, questioning the moment He shall rise again
Though fang and claw have grown dull in slumber I am peacefully assured my spirit remains firm though lying in this state of silent remiss.
Having celebrated many a feast at victory’s table, I’ve no fear of awaking a new creature changed of spirit to weaker or less, for I am a lion. I live within the passions of a lion, possessing the heart of a lion the spirit of a lion, the thirst and hunger of a lion. .......though with this slumber I achieve nothing, assurance remains at the moment of my awakening all creatures of the jungle shall take note and quiver in fear.
Darrell
"While dining at the table of an unimaginable feast
We are asked to consider which one thing we prefer the least
Incomprehensible to me such a query should be presented
For with unquestionable gratitude nothing should be resented
Yet with query though persisted over time we shout out “ the fly”
And in that instant life is seen through quite a different eye
To have so much through gracious gift only to have detracted
By that of such small consequence we all have over reacted
In parallel is life not found to be a feast most spectacular
Yet is not same small fly of our eye the greatest of detractor
To have so much yet to take time in search of what is wrong
Oh !!! What great folly we are guilty of. "
Darrell
Fervent and clear this plea to myself that I answer the call of my soul from long ago, for the time has come I heed this whisper heard floating on yesterday’s winds.
Scattered across this heart of mine lie memories of my past where were set forth in days of my youth demands and dreams to live the life of success, knowing no yield to the seduction of time with her tales of age and claims of right to rest from journeys past. Press on I must so press on I shall in full knowledge those found sitting on the sidelines of life become but witnesses to the success of others who have run the race to it’s end.
Darrell
I’m alone and scared lying in my bed

A green ugly monster with long sharp claws
Yellow spotted teeth and powerful jaws

Who takes away children that break Mom’s laws
Then Mom comes in with a tuck and a kiss
Switches on the night lamp and fears dismiss

No monster lurks around, nothing's amiss
Now I can go to sleep, all fears allayed
Towards dreamland, I soar, no more dismayed
But I know this giant will not be swayed
And come back if I ever disobeyed.
