I’m here, so have no fear
Hope will help happiness appear
I will hold you oh so dear
I won’t shed another sorrowful tear
Can you heal me from this pain within?
My faith is paper thin and I can’t win
This battle within me…you see?
We need to be free from misery
Forgiveness is the key to eternal bliss
The misery mess is a ghostly hopelessness
Trying and dying and crying
Lying and flying and goodbying
Fear not
Doubt not
I forgot
You were distraught
I am emotionally rot
I sought for freedom
I fought for the Kingdom
I’m not naught anymore
I adored you to the core, but what for?
Can you heal me from this pain within?
My faith is paper thin and I can’t win
This battle within me…you see?
We need to be free from misery
Forgiveness is the key to eternal bliss
The misery mess is a ghostly hopelessness
Trying and dying and crying
Lying and flying and goodbying
Fear not
Doubt not
I forgot
You were distraught
I am emotionally rot
Change is a challenging chore
I soar with wings so sore…
A wing or two full of cheerfulness all the more
A melody I won’t ignore
It’s a special hope in store
The Printers clipped her Dash—
And caged her Breath in Chains—
Yet Time—
its Lantern flickering—
Restores what none can name—
They pressed her Thunder flat—
But Silence wove the Wild—
One Century—betrayed—
Another—keeps the Fire—
The Raggedness they could not mend
Fulfills her single Desire—
She would not sell her Storms—
Yet—
Time perceives—
Dashes leap the narrow Page—
Where Songs could never bow—
Letters she sent—
To Sue—so near—
Held beyond the Press—
In twine between the Lines—
Her Voice—untitled still—
Dwells in Quiet Rooms—
Waiting for the Lantern
To scatter Hollows—
Ink may fade—
Fingers cut—and bend—
But jagged Breath survives
Where Silence will not end—
Storms were never meant for Shelves—
But for the Open Sky—
VERSE 1
If love can fly like a dove,
It will find peace in your heart.
There flows the fountain of love,
So never let it depart.
CHORUS
True love surely spreads wide wings,
Hate makes it fly far away.
My queen, take me as your king,
Hear my plea, I gently pray.
VERSE 2
A garden for my rose plant,
It blossoms with joy and peace.
Its sweetness none can recant,
For it tastes pure, sweet bliss.
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE
We’re one soul though two mortals,
The mirror showing me joy.
Your heart and mind are portals
To love that will never cloy.
VERSE 3
Whatever song my heart sings,
It’s for your love to hold me.
Save me from the pain life brings,
Set my heart forever free.
REPEAT CHORUS TILL FADE
Alberto Nisman didn't know the danger he would enter
when he looked into the bombing of a Jewish center
He said president Christina was hiding the truth
he had the goods, would soon show the proof.
He was supposed to appear in Congress, but hours before
Somehow hitmen got by his door
He knew too much, so bad guys moved fast
If you let on what you know, next moment might be last.
Veronica Guerin reported on the Dublin crime scene
They had to kill her before the big clean.
She stopped at a traffic light, two bikers drew nigh
She knew she'd be shot, she knew she would die
She asked them not to shoot her in the face
So they shot her in some other place.
Jack knew secrets, but the mob didn't want death yet
So they punished him whenever he seemed a threat
He walked among you, but you could not see
The overarching underworld reality.
So beware the secrets that you've found,
Even heroes may not leave the battleground.
For truth’s a boomerang—when it comes back around,
Your message may die with you, six feet underground.
feet tracing ruts
softened by the weight of others
the path was worn
polished
not by insight
but by generations
unquestioning the same direction
a weed split the sidewalk
where my foot hesitated
they handed us maps
already marked, folded
creased at the routes
they wanted us to traverse
walls hung with heirlooms
no one claimed
shadows
longer than the rooms
classrooms’ chalkboards of certainty
offices pressed flat with protocol
we learned the art
of veiling the eye behind the eye
we drank from vessels
lips like waiting mouths
etched with forgotten crests
believing the shape of the cup
taught us thirst
air rehearsed its return
like a tethered animal pacing
the same invisible circle
inscribed with grace
shaped like a cage
narrowing the limit
of knowledge
of wisdom
altars made from repetition
shaped our days
to fit the mold
filed down the splinters of doubt
until only smooth compliance remained
tell me—
what is awakening
if not the moment
your hand reaches
for a handle
no one told you was there
and the quiet moment after waking
my heart
uncertain
unshod
hesitates…

[Verse 1]
You came by when the world got too loud,
Eyes like rain, voice full of doubt.
I didn’t ask — I just stayed,
Held your silence like it had something to say.
But I was always the place you’d land,
Not the one you’d ever understand.
[Chorus]
And love… real love doesn’t hide,
Doesn’t knock just when it’s cold outside.
I didn’t know what I was missing,
Till you came looking.
[Verse 2]
You wandered off when the clouds cleared,
Chasing light, chasing anything near.
I stayed… thinking that meant something,
But I was only your quiet ending.
And love… it’s not a place to fall,
Not a rescue line you only call.
I didn’t see what I was missing,
Till you came looking.
[Bridge]
When you came, I was already gone,
I found someone who came just to come along.
No fixing, no saving, no disguise,
Just standing with me, eyes to eyes.
[Final Chorus]
And love… real love doesn’t hide,
Doesn’t knock just when the night collides.
I finally saw what I was missing,
And I was gone… when you came looking.
Kyle Langford runs for governor in CA
He thinks Auschwitz would save the day
and solve the problems that I guess he blames Jews for
But Slavic voters may show him the door.
74,000 Polish Christians died at Auschwitz camp
But Let's look closer under the lamp
Nazis targeted any possible Polish elite
If you attended secondary school, you could die at their feet.
Secret killings of intellectuals, and mass graves
If the kids looked Aryan, they were kidnapped by those knaves
And there was "Generalplan Ost", a plan to settle Germans on Slavic lands
The Slavs would be removed, as such a plan demands.
3 million ethnic Poles died due to Hitler's schemes
Is it really smart for Kyle to indulge in Nazi dreams?
There are much better Republicans running, I give them my vote
Bad ideas keep cropping up, let's keep freedom afloat.
Left and right both have members who don't think Jews are great
The left more of a danger now, they'll do in the Jewish state
But let's not get caught up in cartoon history
The endless appeal of Adolf is a human nature mystery.
Like sand held in my hand,
I know I squeezed too tight,
Grain by grain you will drift away,
And with wind take flight.
I'll keep my hands wide open,
I'm stepping to the side,
So when you look about you,
Your space is open wide.
Let’s get this show on the road,
The car's still empty and we can't seem to load
Susie's applying makeup, Jake’s playing video games,
Mary’s scrolling her socials, where friends call her names.
I want to get to the airport, I want to be
clambering into an Impressionist painting of the sea
Ride the chestnut ponies, get back to something real,
My kids are in a rabbit hole, they forgot how life can feel.
(Chorus)
We're on an oven burner, like a doomed toad—
So let’s get out of here, get this show on the road,
We'll ride wild ponies, neighing by the sea.
We'll go back to living, we'll go back to free.
It helps sometimes to leave a comfort zone,
Children connected to the whole world, but to me they seem alone.
The old ways had their wisdom, and a simpler moral code,
Let’s flip this circus upside down; get this show back on the road.
Khaled was a bodybuilding champ in Iran
A photo shows a smiling and very strong man
Then in Evin Prison, at the mercy of nasty folk
His spine fractured, kidneys failed, heart was harmed, leg was broke.
Evin is a bad place, 113 degrees and no A.C.
I'm sure you can think of better places to be
One woman tells us solitary had no toilet or bed
4 months there then 400 days before she learned if she'd be dead.
Israel destroyed the Evin Prison gate
Then Trump called for cease fire, peace could not wait
I guess he didn't want to be dragged into a "forever war"
But for Evin's prisoners, Iran will close that door.
From the "dungeons of oppression" Khaled sent out a cry
He said "freedom of speech and human rights here are a big lie
But most Westerners know that. It's just "what can we do?"
Until they come for us for their big plans include us too.
Inspired by the Beatles song from Abbey Road, written by John Lennon, and featuring three-part vocal harmony with Paul McCartney and George Harrison.
Aah
Because the sun is bright
it makes me shine
because the sun is bright
Aah
Because a tree is tall
it makes me grow
Because a tree is tall
Aah
I say thanks, I say wow
I am here, I am now
Because a bird is free
it makes me fly
because a bird is free
Aah
after “I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud” (also sometimes called “Daffodils”) by William Wordsworth
I wandered weightless as a feather,
a muted plume from mourning dove.
A tuft afloat in breezy weather
connected now to skies above;
as long as winds will carry me
from over fields and out to sea.
My glad esprit more free than birds,
detached from mortal needs I fly,
where spirits long to share their words
among the songs in clouds, I sigh...
for Earth was never this composed,
this high I travel unopposed.
Oh, cumulus! A meadow white,
I feel at home atop its waves
illuminant, in purest light.
Mid savored heights my mem’ry saves
inertia of the clover green
and shiver of the water’s sheen.
Such riches now I do enjoy
in solitude away from fray.
I'm free from living once so coy;
in spirits’ realm I long to stay,
for then, myself I will fulfill
with gild as gold as daffodil.
Each year Memorial Day causes much lament,
and today will be viewed as another life recap.
A day we honor heroes whose lives were spent,
who, for freedom, willingly stood in the gap.
Too many families are attached to someone,
who served country and didn’t return intact.
Body bags, their ticket home to a loved one,
today, they remember that door knock’s impact.
To feel worthless and lost
can be the worst defeat;
don't wear that look of pretentiousness
it takes away every joy and sweetness!
No, there's no deep affection of woman ,
that once those lips whispered sweetly,
and that magical glow could never be broken:
I put my trust and faith in you so sincerely!
My existence is hunted by demons,
no hell is more frightful than mine;
my sleep is nights of unrestfulness:
don't lay next to me without desire!
No, there's no deep affection of woman,
nor that love that made me fall suddenly;
even my despair breaks me down slowly:
I barely smile, and I often cry out in pain!
Isn't it strange for us to make believe all is fine?
Isn't it hypocritical to hold onto a lie and go on?
Don't fake ecstasy when there's no deep affection
of woman that offers a happiness little divine!
There's no deep affection of woman
in whatever you may give or say,
ah, this spell must be broken:
I'll be free to love anybody!
May you remember the sail ship
white wake behind, seabirds about
When the bedrock begins to slip
When life's purpose is in doubt
May you remember every friend
When enemies surround
When only on few can you depend
And harshness is the only sound.
**(Chorus)**
May the mountains come in waves
That lift you up from under.
like desert rain that saves.
Like a cavalry's thunder.
When there's no arrow in your quiver
And when they say you did betray
Think of rafting that foaming river
To wash the bitterness away.
When they hem in your universe
Hold fast to what is true
When life goes from bad to worse
May the forest be with you.
