Rev: 14;9
What if the mark of the beast was believing a lie
Not 666 that can be seen by the eye
When God makes it obvious and we see each a lie
The tools of the Devil to just get by
It’s well known who’s the father of lies
Yet not fearing God they give it wings to fly
Not fearing God

March Madness - Rev
As madness takes hold,
the valiant will stand.
They've only one goal,
must win to advance.
Go bold or go home.
Take matters in hand.
Seal the deal closed.
Become National Champ's.
Treasured strands of rope.
Welcome To the Big Dance.
It was a back-door deal.
ran through the lane.
Dish pass to low post
A Bunny Wins the game.

Winter Wonder Land - Rev
It's wintertime again.
In little Michigan.
The eighty-foot pines
are swayed by the wind.
A clipper brings cold.
And drives more snow.
Here in little Michigan.
Our Winter Wonder Land.

Rev Pea
It's all about the features and benefits
Make a product which will benefit
The users satisfaction oh yes
An aeroplane that delivers
All promised things and more
This one they got right
Even if it's costly beyond compare
For a century it'll reap profits
Make them rich beyond realms
Not to mention the next one
More capable more costly
More profits more sold

Rev Mlk Resync
"power without love is
reckless
and abusive,
and love without power is
sentimental
and anemic.
Power at its best is
love implementing the demands
of justice,
and justice at its best is
power
correcting everything that stands
against love."
Win/Lose power
without win/win love is
lose/lose reckless
and abusive,
And win/win love
without win/win power is

A B C Poem To Rev My Engines
Alabaster annoyance
Blatantly breathes bulbous brightness
Cadaverous comedy caring
Daintily during delicate delivery
Exciting elderly enigma.
Furious fiery feeler
Gregariously greets
High-handed hustler
Ignoring imaginative immediates
Jauntily jeering judiciously.
Kangaroo kisses kibitzes
Leaving luxurious loners
Merrily masticating mincemeat.
Never-do-wells needing knowledge
Ostentatiously officiate on orange orangutans.
Precariously polite Pomeranians
Quietly quiz querulous quoters
Reposing rapidly ruining
Still sassy strenuous strikers
Turning toward Tuesday tournaments.
Understandably unprecedented underlings
Vindicate vicious vagrants
While wishing waxy widows would
‘xpect

We'Re Human That's the Rub - Rev 1
It's fun to dream of 'better,' but just how? The way's not clear,
For 'better' might cost something that impacts our evening beer!
Now Donald (and the gullible) all tell us they're in charge,
Although I wonder if that's true? The future's looming large!
Some things Don says are "small" (just a mote to beholder)
I'm certain's a log

Reaching For the Stars On a Budget Rev 2
There's not much time before my end,
Still, this boy dreams of stars,
One human life's not much to spend:
Though Science shows me Mars
And robots mask my frailties,
My limbs feel my disease.
Though beggars wait for food to drop,
A feast's been spread that's free,
Though some have toiled to plant this crop,
It rarely has been me,
Humility's the gift that's

Reveille Rev-Uh-Lee
A signal to arise.
I saw it in your eyes.
Reveille.
In good company
Aroused in your bed
Reveling with you
Reveille.
A celebration of the bugle
Your eyes of blue
So close to sunrise
Alive with boisterous excitement
Reveille
Awakened in no time
Every day a new one
Yielding to your arms
Your trinkets with magical powers
Keep us not asunder
Reveille
Tis cold this time of year
Whispering sweet nothings in your

Tapped Out At Four - Rev 2
Stanzas One, Two, Three And Growing
There was “She Played the Harp”(1), when I truly was young,
“Ode to Verde Lee Allen”(2), a stop on a rung,
Loving women has always been easy for me,
For their beauty’s not found just in eye of beholder
Even boys with weak eyes don’t need glasses to see
Their humility shining each day

1. It is much easier to hate those you know nothing about.
2. Always remember that when you kill someone they are no longer feeling pain. Prolong other's misery whenever possible.
3. The dead are never useless however and can always be used as fertilizer.
4. Logic is always on our side. Your God

Tend Your Spinach - Rev 2
Oh when I was a child I loved Popeye cartoons,
Guess there’s no real accounting for any kid’s taste,
But you always knew spinach was up Popeye’s sleeve,
And that bullies like Brutus would soon be disgraced.
“Just deserts!” to all thugs what the world hungers for,
“In the kisser!” whatever their color or stripe,
“Missing spinach” like kryptonite something
