Because Father Christmas leads the way
So jolly Saint Nick

If Santa Claus will lend him his sleigh...

To make the senses tingle

There was a young sleigh bell named Tingle
She loved to ring and to jingle
She shined herself bright
'Cause on Christmas Eve night
She'll be on the sled of Kris Kringle....

Sun's sparks settling seaward, sultry-slow
   Sleek silver stallions shaping the snow
Hooves hurling healthy helpings of Holiday Cheer
   'Tis Christmas in July, sing Kris Kringle's reindeer...

Kim Kardashian is a beaut, but we all know that she can be a sloot.
She was with Ray J for his dime, now their affair has ended up online.
She looks a bit like her Mom but in her prime.
Sorry Kris, it's past your time....

Ouch ouch ouch bellers old Claus
Toes now crushed by reindeer paws
He dropped his pringle
Poor old Kris Kringle
Rowdy Rudolph was the cause.

Kris, so miffed having heard Blitzen say,

"You must shelter in place, Christmas day!",

drew a sip from his flask
through a rip in his mask,

then threw every last gift off his sleigh!

The timid 
find courage
in the well
— of another’s fear

The kids were all ready for Christmas
While under the tree sat their wish lists--
    Heard a big rumble
    From a big tumble-- 
Seems it was the chimney that Kris missed

They ran out to see the commotion
Witnessed Santa downing a potion-- 
   Their eyes grew so wide
   That in came the tide--
Their gifts floated in on the ocean!...

Ignorance is bliss,
Said the Little Miss
As she picked the Edelweiss.*

Ah, but tis only bliss
Until you've had a kiss
Replied the Master Kris.

I do not want a kiss
Hissed the Little Miss,
And flicked her hand to dismiss

That cheeky, charming Swiss.

*Note: Edelweiss is symbolic of purity

(in Memory of W. Houston)

After all that I've been
through
The trials and tribulations,
tried and true
PEACE, I ask of you, for
My curfew
Because I've done ALL,
that I can do
This I would grant, "if on
the other foot was the shoe"
Although, My Baby, "Bobbi-
Kris", it'll make her blue
Yet, it's over and done with,
"that Bird has flew"
Now, LORD, do "I LOOK TO
YOU"...

Johnny Cash surely paid for his crime
Singing the blues while he served his time
  Sang his heart out in prison
  Till his spirits had risen
Joined the "Outlaw" singers in his prime


Written for the Behind Bars Blues contest

The "Outlaws" included Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Kris Kristopherson and Waylon 
Jennings.  They earned this title because the Grand Ole Opry refused to let them 
perform there....

You may call us misfits, or even troublemakers
But we are not what you say we are, theives and takers
In fact we are givers, lovers at that
This is known by everyone to be a true fact
Thomas, Rene', and even myself
We are the poets, we are true to thyselves
Dillan and Kris they bring the best bliss
Making everyone laugh even when they miss
We love eachother even when we're blue
The poetic pirates all of us stay true......

Paradox humanity widespread insanity

Dystopian intellect; humans at disconnect
Poisoned minds, engineer own immunity.

Kris kristofferson music prompt


Put your glass down by my arm
Pop the top and pour a beer
Just let it slide smooth down the side
'cos a head is bitter like the night

Outside the wind''s a raging fool
Who grabs my clothes and shoves me 'round
So let me sit here on your stool
And help me make it through the night.

The day was dreary
Work a fight
And now a storm
Captures the night

So bring your bottles of golden light
And help me make it through the night....

The epic behind the satellite epic that was and remains...the career of lewis Findlay.....


He who calls his brother races is endangered of council


Thank you twiggy for all those dedications of carly simon
And you're re so vain



Vanity of vanities 
My darling Sheba


You were my joy and pleasure my sorry shame.

We brought the midnight sun to rise

Across the eb,ny starlite skies

Again like us more shall not come

Songs of The season
Throughout the house
Aesthetically pleasing
Days on the couch 

Little red noses
Wishing for snow
Tongues in the air
Hearts aglow 

Twinkle of lights
Adorning fences
As day becomes night
The await condenses 

Alas, Kris Kringle 
Takes to the sky
Wishes fulfilled
For every closed eye

Footballs and baby dolls
Bikes for little tikes
Magic fills the halls
And streets, alike

The 25th of December
Has come at last
Another to remember
But gone too fast...
