Sixty minutes to make peace, 
not much time in the scheme of things.  
To ask forgiveness for all I've done,

He was a snorkling guy
South of Florida state.
Now he's diving all the time
water’s where he stays.
Yesterday he was boasting.

Not just when you’re good but also when you’re bad.

Here I sit inside my box to the assembly line of the Boring Masses
Here I sit inside my box dreaming…

Dreams of color and music
Dreams of wine and dance
Dreams of song and...

Eco Thunder

Got me horse on the footpath ,
Old Thunder ain’t  lightening quick,
Keeps me lawn a mowing  down,
And leaves me them manura bricks.

Has his nosebag chaff n oats,

Molded from the beginning
Etchings are added like memories

one single flag to which they all adhere –
“someone might steal my loot”.  This primal fear
prompts pistols under pillows, sleepless nights
and riot cops.  Who needs a Stagyrite?

apologize for being an aweful son and brother,

Then I cradle my wife, 
discussing the memories of our wonderful life.

While not everything turned out roses,

the proud owner of all your free time.
once a state of the art instrument of multiple uses.
a tool of mass communication .
the envy of my peers.
said to have been ahead of my time.
