Information is not always true
Even if printed in the newspaper blue
But if it’s on the internet, it is right? Some think
Why would they print lies in permanent ink?
It’s called propaganda, you silly peeps
Subliminal clips brainwash you while you sleep
You are so gullible, our country is a laughing stock
For ten thousand dollars, I can sell you Big Ben’s clock
went to the well to fetch some water
to water the plants and to drink some water
but fell in endless well with no bottom
he went to the well to fetch some water
the hope of his dreams is way bigger
the fruition period slipped before the reaches
fell in the well, a never ending torture
close his eyes? will the nightmare be over?
the demons are the rulers,
the demons are the winners
who will pull him down
gravity- a force stronger
Best friends often do not do well in school.
But they are hilarious, and make life cool.
Know what to say, how to listen, and be a clown.
Can help you rise up when your soul is a bit down.
Best friends are not the ones your parents would pick.
But they know how to play, have fun, and give you a kick.
They keep the giggles flowing, and show you a good time.
My best friends are the best, to keep your mind out of slime.
And all is well, with my soul
O’ all is well with Our soul
All was and is well
And all was and is well
ALL IS WELL IN HIM WITH US
Beloved, I thanks for your well wishes
And kindness
Have a blessed
ALL IS WELL IN HIM WITH US
Night and May we be blessed
ALL IS WELL IN HIM WITH US

COVID in Boston
so left and went to Austin
gas much was costing
COVID has been why
emotions at all time high
patience short supply
seems like when they force
All of our work to outsource
did bring on remorse
That was what is had heard in MSNBC
longer we will dwell
in what has been Holy hell
never did feel well
have to let things go
fully release all of them
be ourselves again
From Compline we had by
Kevin last night.
He can forward this to all FaceBook
friends on compline.

On every weekday night at 8 PM EST.
A K-8 school, J.S. Waters, was roundly chastised today
Its students held a 'mock' slave auction
This happened in March, in North Carolina, in the year 2022
White students sold black students as slaves, and used the n-word too
One boy went for $350, later he was clubbed with a baseball bat
So, if you roll your eyes over 'Racism?' --in the USA?
~ You ought to think long and hard about that
Fire the principal, the teachers involved, expel the white participants too
Throw the book at the adults, and at those white kids too
Make an example of these horrid beasts, so this NEVER happens again...
We dare not wonder why Civil War wounds have yet to mend
When the sky is piercing blue
and the ocean's the same color too
When the humidity's gone from the air
and the temperature's not 'way up there'
When sun's rays are welcome, not harsh
and all's well in meadow and marsh
When there are apples on the tree to munch
and the forest is cool to the touch
It's then that Mother Nature brings light rain
So when it stops, it can be perfect again
I want to do so well in this world
That I can have a rich man’s tomb,
I want to do so well in this world
I can have a rich man’s tomb,
Upright tall overlooking the masses with all them other who is whoms.
I want to be so rich in this life
My mausoleum’s under a big old oak tree,
I want to be so rich in this life
My mausoleum’s under a big old oak tree,
Keep the sunshine life for the laborers and chickadees.
I want to have enough possessions
That when I’m gone you still can get the idea,
I want to have enough possessions
That when I’m gone you still can get the idea,
Carve my name in twelve-inch letters rubbed with wonder and perpetual care.
ALL IS WELL IN HELL
AS YOU CAN TELL
FROM THE MELLOW TONE
OF MY FUNNY BONES
PLAYING WHITE CHRISTMAS
