It's sister dramatic verse is: The Entertainment Rating System.**

Because we have debased the word 'mother,'
by adding onto to it the F***Bomb!

Yes, to the dance and party at Hotel California.
You love the flirting game with pretty maids all in a row.
No more wasted time on the heartbreak endured in Georgia.
No sad desperado feel blocks your new,...

How could I begin to find love again
Desperado walking a tightrope

“The first time ever I saw your face”
Cold heart melted,...

I am New York 

Went for a drive 
Just a regular day
Though I saw love 
Going down a highway

Enjamblious






Megalomaniac
When manic
Melancholia
Polar vortex

Mellifluous verse
As depression reversed

REBORN OF FIRE.

An oversimplification
In elaborate diatribe.

The musings of a liar

Enjambment
Deponent in ire
Indignant...

circling around...

No wonder death walks your streets.

Helpless women in smelly subways! 
are beaten or their...

if I left my heart in San Francisco
but I'm in Luckenbach, Texas
if Chicago is my kind of town
but I need to please come to Boston
if by the time I get to Phoenix
I'm on a corner...

I've always heard
about the New York minute
But nobody ever told me
about the New York hour
I'm speaking on the time of the day
when it seems like half the city
is out walking their dog

Everybody is aware,
everyone understands...
