I want to be God
Just as I was meant
I wanna be loved
In and out of the tent
I want to be praised
All throughout the world
Want to be adored
By the loveliest girl
And just as the world
Will come to its end,
I want it to be said,
“He was better than men.”
I want to be God
The kind in the book
You’ve perused His name
You’ve heard how it took
I want to go back
To 1247
‘Cause in my estimation,
That was close to Heaven
But Heaven exists
On the top of a pearl
Let’s abandon this thing —
Let’s give it a whirl —
I want to be God
The instiller of fear
Oh won’t that be sweet
To be held so dear
So deep in the pavement
Beneath human feet
The killer of traffic
The idol of meek
I’ll creep and I’ll crawl
Like a certain snake
There’ll be no limit
To the abuse I can take
So God is a question
And God is a snack
God sits on a throne
In a Missouri shack
God does his business
And wipes with his hands
The squalor of reason
Is what God understands
You’ll see the difference
All throughout the land:
The inglorious servant
Will one day gain command
France is the stage for the drama to come
Victory for others and defeat for some
Chasing the dream to be number one
As up and down the field they run
The "Matildas" got a much needed win
After defeating Brazil three to two
They will play today, an when the match begins
They are hoping the 'Reggae Girlz' dont give them the blues
Brazil will battle Italy in a do or die
A loss may bring them to tears
As samba rhythms rise to the sky
Victory could be theirs if they dare
The World Cup trophy is the most prized of all
In a game most call football
This month, the women will give it a whirl
To see who will be crowned queens of the world!

Neither pauper or a king
I've got nothing I could give
but for you I would live
Will you take me as I am?
(cause) I'd love to be your man
I've got nothing in this world
Got no diamonds got no pearls
Love for you to be my girl
Take my hand give it a whirl!
Chorus
I'm neither a pauper or a king
but, I've got a wedding ring
be my wife, make my heart sing
with you I've got everything (I need)
In love forever we would be
happy for eternity
What a blessing it would be
If you'd just say YES to me
Together, we can fly so high
through the endless starry sky
and just like a butterfly
our life will flutter by
Chorus
I'm neither a pauper or a king
but, I've got a wedding ring
be my wife, make my heart sing
with you I've got everything (I need)
And if you say YES to me
I'll make you so happy!
(cause) you are my destiny
Please, come set my soul free
Chorus
I'm neither a pauper or a king
but, I've got a wedding ring
be my wife, make my heart sing
with you I've got everything (I need)
Repeat chorus
Fade to zero

(my friends i wrote the piece below in one long exhale. i did not change a word but
rather let it sit as it fell. could the writing be improved. yes it could but why try to
create a masterpiece when finger painting is so much fun. you have greeted me with
wide open arms. you have been a great support at a stressful time in my life. so here
it is from my heart to yours.)
they are those who ride us on their backs
send us on journeys to places they built
one chess piece at a time
they put into words
what we knew
but could not say
why am I telling you this
there are wonderful poets here
choose a dish
visit their buffets
taste more than one feel
give it a whirl
experience worlds you'll never find on a mac
visit their vivid dreams
drive one of their soap bubbles
ski on the end of a needle and thread
discover the barely open doors
the naked flesh between the creases
displays lined in scrap paper
that one can absorb eyes closed
crawl under and over the sea
tunnel the milky way to a brand new galaxy
witness a sky that like curtains part
peak at what is on the other side
life is short play nude
spend a bitty bit of time
with bitty bits of folksy folks
on a striped colored blur
they are special the poets who live here
so do yourself a flavor
put on your roller blades
and go for the tricycle ride of your life
here is the best part and get this
(i hope your holding your breath
and turning red white and blue)
some of their poems rhyme
some of them even use styles
here comes the huge reveal
( unlike me who is not really a poet
and doesn't actually know it)
they use good grammar
extensive vocabularies
and here's the kicker
capital letters
and proper punctuation
go figure
which they also use
well that figures
there are great poets here
you do yourself a disfavor
if you're only here to write
and not here to read
I'll always be there
I know you felt so persecuted
so abandoned and deserted
but, many troubles were averted
I'll always be there
I know, life's been hard on you
but, you have had some blessings too
somehow true love has escaped you
but, I'll always be there
Bridge
Your days have been filled with trouble
you've not yet learned how to live
Why not learn from my experience
Chorus
Are you ready? 'Cause I'm ready!
to give.....love
When you're ready, I'll be ready!
to share...love
Here in this wild and crazy world
you're my one and only girl
so, take my hand let's give it a whirl
I'll always be there
Life with me is not like a dream
'cause this life's much harder, than it seems
but we can win, 'cause we're on the same team
I'll always be there
Chorus
Are you ready? 'Cause I'm ready!
to give.....love
When you're ready, I'll be ready!
to share...love
Our life's been great all through these years
We've both conquered all of our fears
and, I'll keep drying all your tears
yes, I'll always be there!
Chorus repeat and fade

My mind is twisted, not your average mind
Off centre is a good way to describe it
Not saying it's a bad thing or totally unwelcome
Kinda like this weird kinda twist
Normal and mundane just has never appealed
Always had a strange outlook for sure
Look at things from a different perspective
A little weird but sure not a bore
Everyone should try it, just give it a whirl
Why am I promoting this thing
Until you experience it you'll never know joy
It will cause your dear heart to sing
I'm really not special, just discovered a truth
To feel happiness all else above
Since grade school, teen years, now old and grey
The secret's no secret, it's love
My mind is twisted, not your average mind
Off centre is a good way to describe it
Not saying it's a bad thing or totally unwelcome
Kinda like this weird kinda twist

I’m driving down this country road, it’s all in bloom
Top down I’m listenin’ to our favorite tune
Missin’ you next to me with your perfume
Wishin’ you were here with me
Thinkin’ ‘bout last night and what you said
Can still feel your touch as I look ahead
It feels so good that it fills my head
I’m wishin’ you were here with me
Here with me..
I know with you I just win
It’s easy to see..
If I don't know now then when
I find myself smiling just thinking of you
The world through your love is such a great view
This feelin’s so real I don't want to come to
I’m wishin’ you were here with me
I’m wishin’, you were here
Here with me..
I know with you I just win
It’s easy to see..
If I don't know now then when
We’ll have our time just you and me girl
I wouldn’t trade you for the whole world
I think we ought to just give it a whirl
I’m wishin’ you were here with me
Yeah, I’m sure this is the time for you and me girl..
I’m wishin’ you were here with me..
Here with me..
I know with you I just win
It’s easy to see..
If I don't know now then when
I’m wishin’ you were here
Oh wishin’, wishin’, wishin’ you were here..
(I am wishin’)
I am wishin’
(You’re here with me)
You’re here with me
(Wishin’ you were with me)
Wishin’ you were here with me
Here with me..
(Here with me)
I’m wishin’ you here with me..
I’m wishin’ you here with me..
I’m wishin’ you here with me..
Tribute to Tom:
HE’S NOT LOOKING SO GOOD FROM WAY UP HERE
I’d rather climb an oak with a squirrel —
Be one nut shy of death, a deferral
of climbing a ladder,
I think I would rather
NOT, but the husband says “Give it a whirl.”
GOLFING WITH GATERS
Golfing with gaters in Florida, Bob,
with them “partners,” is a serious job.
Look at them big teeth :o
Sell you mourning wreath?
You look deathly green, bank”rolled” by the mob.
HIS NOSE GROWS OUTSIDE THE BIT
In denial, his Pinocchio grows.
Has all the signs of sick, he’s in the throes.
He won’t admit it.
Won’t chomp, take the bit.
Fred’s horse, he coughs, snotty mask b’low his nose.
TIME TRAVEL RESISTS
Approval of pharisaical list.
A rambunctious year, time travel resists.
Secession for lovers
drawn under the covers —
Precious and few, hugs and kisses exist.
CURTAINS
Lathered with soap in dope eyes, he’s not seen
as death opens the curtain, her last scene.
He courts a sharp knife.
WAIT! That’s not his wife.
Behind him — his spouse; she wants to come clean.

I’ve simply labeled them rhymes.
Christian Café a new dating site, met a girl
It probably won’t work, should I give it a whirl
Should I take a chance, is she thinking the same
She probably is actually just playing a game
She wants to meet, with a friend she will be
She’ll be dressed in sweater I will surly see
Doesn’t trust to be alone, neither do I
Should I look to find her, should I leave or try
Why should I meet her, it always turns bad
Also know it will probably turn out sad
Am I building this up bigger than life
Guess I just hope maybe I’ll find a wife
I gave it the try and took the big chance
Hugged each other and did a new dance
I married this girl and I’m happy you see
She is more than I thought she’d ever be
Now we’re married with our first anniversary
All started because Jesus died on that tree
For we believe in our Savior evenly yoked
We laugh and we love and enjoy a good joke
