Of landowners, stockbrokers,
Hereditary Peers, and ruddy faced
Squires:
A vast multitude of many varied
Tribes.
Amassing in the great cities, where,
Inhabiting shadowy chambers,
Behind nodding sighs and hushed
Whispers,
The Masonic...

horses
and I guess I most surely
always will
No legend without em'

The unsung heroes of
any heroic battle
Pony, colt, filly or mare

dare
Ride them to a trot, ride...

And a bird nested in his tall top hat.
Nathaniel resembled a scarecrow his clothes were...

A Shameful Few
Chip away at the surroundings,
To get to the spoils inside.
Mindless of devastation,
Or the pain as a nation cries.
Off in a new direction,
The agenda must be upheld.
Global unification?
A very grim fairy tale!
Greed on their back as...

Analysis (Election 2010)
Against the castles walls tonight
The broken assemblage of squires and knights
Dance around the damsel in delight
Her distress dispersing dreamers into fights
This America deserves a better show
While the bugles rage, against the muffled heart
The cold...

Diaspora Link
That Diaspora represent a piece of my identity,
Strewed my views on the squires of taciturnity,
Inconspicuous lines and depictions,
And then there's the pencil wizard,
Follow my body's rhythms, that I used to bury,
A meandering deer in the...

On the battleground where evil fell
That spread throughout both hill and dale
Are the whispered tales of swords and slings
And the legend of a thousand kings
White knights and squires on armored horse
Who bravely chose to stay...

You made me smarter than Sherlock himself,

Paupers Grave
Verily I say unto thee,
The subjects of kings are not free.
They answer to all the king’s court.

With a tax on every dime,
Then thy freedom and liberty

Cockroaches
Oh the goddam cockroaches!
Like living aliens from 50’s movies:
