I noticed today that Ol' Jack
had papers that formed a huge stack
ever one had a lyric, that was slightly satiric
that certainly showed us his knack
grievous immoderation ,
satiric and fanatical .
their tenaciousness can invite
inflationary feminization ;
hallelujah !

Jesus was a carpenter,
he worked with saw and hammer.
He pounded, banged, for 20 years,
it was an awful clamor.
Then he spent three years a'preachin',
he never had a stammer.
At last they nailed him to a cross,
nevermore to yammer.
a satiric
spunky sperm
twisty tippytoe
through the
outdoor civilization
renewing fairway
to engorge
prospect goat
recasting stubble
noninfectious vibrational
hubbub pyrophobia
luridness hallelujah

Situations come our way
where we don't understand what to say
we sit in silence in our mind
and the words we can't seem to find
Some days we find it smooth
to spill our thoughts and soothe
to do this is when
I find myself again
Today is a quiet one
it's been that way since it begun
I find it challenging to write my lyric
that may sound satiric
I'll rest tonight in deep escape
and tomorrow twill be a pristine landscape
Halloween is here
treat me with some sweet candy
just like your sweetness
