A Feared Drill
I don't want to even, go there
A hole in my tooth
The drill, I'll always fear
Stick that needle of novacaine, right here
The wretched, screeching, burning
Fill that hole quickly, Doc
So I need not come back here
It's not that I don't like you
The secretary and your assistants are fine
As you can see
My teeth are all in line
I'm still frightened, whoa is me
Squirming in that reclining chair
Beam of light in my eyes
I hope you truly do care
That's it!

Fading Spirituality
They've wanted me to confess
my sins
to a man I did not know
yet I pondered as a child
which way shall I go
an alter boy
with a tad of an ego
confess my hurtful feelings
to a priest
whose seeds, I would not sow
through out the annals of time
the immoral, unjust, lied
while they cover up
their transgressions, they laughed and scoffed
while we cried
I now see clearly
there will indeed be weeping and

The Worst Poetry
I pen some of the worst poetry
you'll ever read
yet it is mine
you can never take it from me
I wrap myself in it
likened to my baby blue blanket
I feel the pain of a missspppellled word
I don't always catch it
Who is society to judge my verse?
this is a curse
taking a turn for the worse
I feel like quitting, yet to no avail
I forge onward
My pens out of ink
my cat just pooed in the litter box
man! does it stink
gotta calm my nerves or make them worse

Evils' Way
Come hither my good man
I will give you all in this world
If only you follow me
I am the new truth for all eternity
I will shower you with gold
I will set you upon this throne
You will have women, lust
All the drinks and drugs you can muster
Free, If you only follow me
No matter what you heard
Of that long haired freak
Promising two thousand years ago
Live forever, nah I don't think so
You must believe in me
Can't you see the famine, terror that comes from me
I am the new light dressed in sheeps clothing
I am the ravenous wolf

Am I to Believe?
So, you turned water into wine
You've waltzed upon the open seas
Drifting so languishly, seeking only love and peace
Am I to believe?
Throughout the vast open lands
Shaking minds from bondage and despair
With an open heart and blessed hands
Am I to believe?
So, you 've healed the sick
Gave light to sightless eyes
Through the ridicule from hypocrytes
To the great Roman leaders lies
Giving your life so freely
So all men may see
Courage and faith
That living forever is
Our destiny

St. Ann, Has Called Me Back
Upon my return
To an old torn and tattered grade school
With drab brown floor tiles
As worn as a dinosaurs bones
I stumbled into the custodians closet
The dusty, dirty mophead
Hung there, still
From five years gone by
Expeditiously, I rustled on a new head
Inserting a new handle, into action
My goal, a glossy sheen and satisfaction
Soaking the head, with fresh wax
I slipped and slithered a few new coats
On the old floor
Through all the cracks
A once depleted hall
Returned to glory

Hollywood - Stay out of Politics
Are you all kidding me
Just be the fakes you are
Actress's and actors keep your traps shut
Make movies, not enemies
Let Sarah alone, she'll be the next VP
She's tough, rugged and smart
She'll give women and this country first, attitude
A fresh new start
Thank GOD she's not going on O's show
For she'll embarass the host
From coast to coast
Typical far left jerks
With their come see my movie, quirks
You know nothing of her record
You all have problems, all of you broke the law
Look at her past, family, faith
Prosperity
A woman, who will do good

Sisters of Faith
Sally portrayed a flying nun
Hollywood made a joke of her
Sisters of faith, restore hearts
The place where no one depleting soul
speaks of her
Discipline, comes to children who accept it
I for one have no regrets
From my young mans days
You earned my respect
Helped change my wicked ways
Many hours
Endless prayers
If cakes were made with souls
You've made them with many layers
For evil doers and ney sayers
Righteousness and hope from sisters of faith
Still give children a chance

Tony Finally Got His Deer
Tony was out for revenge
always the one that got away
his cousin Pat and his friend Matt
woods brisk and chilly
Matt recently back
from the desert war
not sure what he was fighting for
Pat along for the hunt
Tony on top of the ridge
Pat and Matt down below
two sets of antlers
they had the spot
the spot was hot
get ready Matt, says Pat
I'ts your shot
no! you shoot says Matt
all is calm, then

A Bowlers Short Dream
They arrive from destinations
Round' about the globe
Striving to attain success
Lugging sixteen pounds of reactive resin
Tools of their trade
Facing the synthetic wood
Undaunted
Hoping to endeavor a perfecto
Twelve in the whole
Burried, carried into submission
Splashed and hammered against the back rubber
A high in stature gentleman
Heats up the tourney
With the immediate ire of his keglin' mates
His first eleven shots are ripped through the pocket
All lids are wide open
The house anxiously awaits
