Carrying with me a
halfhearted smile for the
braver men than I.
The men holding tightly
to past perceptions,
live or die.
Suppose I whispered to 'em
what I've heard through
the metaphorical grapevines.
Suppose I lent a hand.
Would they take it as an...

I’m stuck.
My mouth tries to speak my thoughts.
My creative process is buried in the muck. 
My tongue is in tangled up knots.
I long so terribly to tell you how I feel.
Although, every time I try,...

Socially retarded and somewhat aloof I never knew what a true friendship was.
Not knowing how to play well with others growing into a young man.
I was 18 years old, washing dishes in that Chinese Restaurant,...

I look backwards I look forward
I look all around
I look left and right
chaos is all to be found

someone at this second is murdered 
someone at this second is raped
just watching the news 
makes me want...

Humans have long trespassed
and destroyed animal territories
Humans have poached
And selfishly encroached
upon animal habitats
cutting down trees to build
human habitations.
Now the tables have turned
Humans are quarantined  in house arrest
while some lie sick in bedrest
So animals not usually...

I fell, 
I wouldnt tell.
Clouded by old fear,
No words of comfort I could hear.

Karma returned,
then the tables were turned.
I felt what they did,
and I see how far I've slid.

Remembering my strength,
I was willing to go...

Ready for round one...subject, verb, noun...done.
First, you tried to run, so now let's have some fun!

Now, get a dose of reality. It's...

Today’s a day to keep in mind when looking back but not behind
Some doors I’ve closed but not yet locked as I can’t forget what I once thought rocked
There are still some loved ones I...

What if the tables had been turned...
And it was her, looking at me
Seeing what the eyes can't believe
And what the heart can't embrace

I'm looking into sorrow's face
The sadness wraps itself around her 
Like a blanket...

It started so savage...at such a very young age
No armor of anger to protect me from pain
Photographic...taking naked pictures of my nightmare paranoia
Can you see through souls just like a dark destroyer?
One thousand creeps in...

Verse
When I saw who was calling
I didn't answer the phone
There was a pit in my stomach
Like I'd swallowed a stone
Collect call from jail
Do I want to accept?
If the tables were turned
Would I be feeling bereft?
Except...

A Kid roamed free on the streets last week,
Doing mean and illegal acts,
He apparently robbed a corner store,
But nobody knows the facts.
He never bothered to go to school,
For the past – what – seven years?
Instead...

Everything that you are happens for a reason.
With each passing thought is a change of season.
 In spring it feels like anything can grow.
The reason becomes just part of the show.

All that I am is...

You may be sitting high and mighty now my friend 
but you will not always be 
for your unearned happiness will one day end 
should you live long enough, you'll definitely see. 
Your only interests...

Heathen warriors dressed in the plaid
Victims of time and an evil brigade
Pursue their beliefs far into the South
Gaelic words from a Jacobite mouth

Like bairns against many a gun
The highlanders decided to run
Not for home and...

Freedom.

Oh you can run now, I'm setting you free
So for once in your life, accept gratefully
Ignore every time I proclaimed in the past
My arms open wide will, again, be the last
I said that before I...

'Tis another moonlit night.
My prey is within my sight.
His thinking, that was his mistake
That I, alone was his to just take.

Oh but the tables are turned
As it is his flesh that is burned.
He watched me...
