A Solitaire Man
Excuse me, my friend
I did'nt mean to pull you out of that chair
ruining your preciuos game, of solitare
you have a job to do
just like us
there's nothing else to discuss
you can play
till your hearts desire, on your break,
a king of diamonds you must forsake
I know you have a hot hand
I know it's on fire
yet, I must take this stand
so get out of that chair
make us all aware
you really do care
quit that freakin' game of

The Good Cops In 07
My first pleather jacket
In all its' fakeness
Bumble-bee yelow
Black stripes
I first heard Roxanne
She did put on that red light
She did hold me tight
When I saw you that Thursday night
Citizens Bank Park
A Philly twighlight
Memories, cheers, then the tears
For twenty-five years gone bye
A few beers, a few shots
Your voice-box rang
Like church bells sing
Sting, Stu and Andy too
Thanks boys

Brew Station Divas
They, the beautiful
with their curvaceous frames
sip their caramel swirl latte's
as I read the mornings news
In my corner abode
steaming smooth, sensations
erupt from their cover girl
strawberry lips
Into a state of satisfaction
A wink perhaps from one
intensifies my gazing
pounding into submission
my hopeful yearning
simply a smile
God sent
they show case
model framed torsos'

The Torch (Act Two)
The torch slowly fades
The burning sensation
Languishly depleting into another
Pepsi generation
No more parties for me, my friend
No more pool tables to set you on
The memories, the concert date
Forever gone
Back to sobriety
No more calamity
Bringin' back
All of me
This program saves lives
Been there and it works
No more bar room insanity
No more alcoholic jerks

Another Election Day
Politicians, senseless spending
Ridicule without ryhme, never ending
My dream one party, one race
The human kind, now on a climactic pace
For death and destruction
Will be our end
Less all partys
Make amends
Working together should be their goal
Get us out of the futures black hole
Where there will be no light
But for the grace of GOD
Go we
Tonite
So pull that lever
If you must
I prefer to sit at home

Jdm- The End, Part Deux
The God of rock was right
My friends, this just may be
Our bitter end
False prophets
In sheeps clothing
Commiting our souls
To satans ways
For I have been given a reprieve
From my disease
Trippin' with purple haze
Hendrix daze
So many moons ago
Bending the elbow
Doin' the shots
Hittin' all the ladies
Hot spots
Diseases
Destruction
Death
Is there a place

Bailout My Soul
My soul, is now empty
I know not, what to think
of this demise from, the rich and greedy
Shame on you all, forgettin' the poor and needy
The human spirit will still, soar on through
Although the poor are forgotten
oh my, thats' me and you
It's not that your poor
with your money machines
printing what ceo's need
more of the green
For we are in a worldy mess
never were poor mentioned
as Dylan once spoke
this so called rich American society
is but a joke

Another Abuse - The Young Lady at Heart
another abuse issue
a young lady of beauty
black and blue bruises
from her thighs
to her eyes
a young lad
so tough and untrue
to pick on a frail girl
I only wish he'd give me a whirl
It makes me sad
to not witness what I know would be
he smacked her, simply because, she forgot to put sugar
in his coffee
one day, I know he'll get his due
as many devilish demons due
as she leaves him, anonymously
hanging from a tree

Ending All Czarships
Another ploy from the left
another congressman who lied
another brave soldier died
all these political pieces, simply don't fit
we can no longer stand it
no healthcare fix, just more of the leftists tricks
oh my! this plan will work
another political jerk
when John wrote
all we need is love
from the man above
we should have listened to them both
the week and weary may not survive
our fearless leader says
you're over seventy
you don't need to be alive

Sledding
Awakened to ten inches plus
flakes, the size of baseballs
sled blade
waxed to perfection
tobaggan with mirrored like glass
Shines
waterhose outstreched to the alley
neighborhood youth faces
gleam for a chance
down the autobahn -like asphalt
Ice-bound and built for speed
A sledders destiny for disaster
the luge awaits only the brave
Orange safety cones
luminate the night sky
as Cassie rocks in her chair
