I practiced a little every day
Learning chords is quite a fight

Golden Calf
A Golden Calf came through our old town for people to worship whether deft or daft.

Democrats like Damocles Sword's imminent jeopardized positions of power hail her rise,
Decades of teamsters support, NO, Harris-Demos few endorsed her in the public's eyes,

A Familiar World Moved An Inch Off-Center
The world shifted and here I stand
A tired and lethargic man
Who demos death to avoid life
It hurts to think, just close my eyes
A crippled cell ruined the richest man
And the poorest isn't safe now
A gaping...

His mind was filled with rhyme.
He kept his demos by the bed,

Spiritual Listings
Spiritual Listings

Deep in the constitution, lawlessness
Inside the adulthood, puberty
Deep in motherhood, breastlessness
In the paternity, womankind
In the smiles, sorrowfulness
Inside the forces, idleness
On the holiness, sacrilege
For...

Farming As a Terrorist Act
Going on down to the demos today

Laughter Herein

Aim for quick wit to spring wild jest;
Urge can fashion as pun demos;
Grip humour's fit in silly fest;

Throw a joke there with metaphor;
Embrace fond...
