Music makes the world contrast
It fills in the spaces
It balances the exposure
Pulls back the whites
And fills in the darks
It pulls it all together in one
Moment
Music creates the picture
That we live in

Case and Conclusion
Case and conclusion
The ultimate illusion
How to know
The difference
From what is real
From what is withering
Off and gone
Case has been made
With a conclusion on coming
Hold on to hope
While we are running
Where We Are
When the joker becomes the king
And the king the joker
The chef the librarian
The musician the chef
The lawyer the doctor
Doctor the salesman
What is going on
Who knows anything
Is there anything left
What is going wrong
What is going on
This is where we are
In Due Time
Repetitive in nature
Willing to change
But afraid
Of what is
This mind of mine
Playing games all the time
Hoping to paint new ideas
In due time
In due time
Cascading to Our Graves
For every step of progress
I feel I regress
For every advance
I retreat
There is no perfect balance
That I can keep
No way to create perfection
Keep the lies from a second
Resurrection
Days where weights feel constrained
On my neck
My throat
I go to yell and all I have is a moan
I go to scream
Nothing more than a thin veiled beam
I don’t believe in conspiracy theory
But here we are
Saluting the one percenters
While we are sent cascading into our own graves
Way down
Where the banks collect our clothes
Where the dollar man knows our home
There is no protection
When the problems of insufficient funds
Makes it’s final connection
How did we get to a place of such
Deadly extremes
Some blow up Bentley’s
While other can’t keep up
It seems
Today I fear my future
For more progress means more indebtedness
How can I pull through
When it all seems too much
I get a rush of blood
To my head
I must start again
Create my own hope and go forward
Look to the sky
Keeping my eyes on the prize
Hope will come
Success will come
It has to come
Or we are all to be undone
Pay Up
Vulnerable dues
Unlikely news
Pay it to the man in the coat
In the long black trenchcoat
The snake oils salesman
The PhD pay him your money
Let go freely
Trying to get caught up
Is just digging further in the rut
While your at it
Take 2 punches to the gut
Guttural reactions to prescription drug contango
Have to keep the doctors fat and happy
So just hand over the checkbook
And don’t get sick
Scramble the Signal
Scramble the signal
Influential presidential
Previous conditions
How can we let go
Of the most vulnerable
Let the needy fall first
How could we live with that
Profits soup packed bowl
Hoping to ring in the numbers
While other fall sick
That is not the goal of humanity
Or decency
Take care of each other
Thin out the fat cats
They need less cars
That’s for sure
Reminds us that we are human
The words
Ring out
Hopefully don’t fall short
Honor
What is the term honor
Honor for achievement
Honor for the moment
Honor for what reasons
What earns honor and distinguishment
I am certain that it is not a light word
Should be dispersed with great review
Discussion
Honor the people
Who honor this country
Not those who run loose
For when it is honor given
We hope not to lose
Certain now
That honor itself has become a point of confusion
Amusement
What honorable actions happened today
For such a reaction
Ill-Fated Truck
Ill-fated truck
On a late night run
Blowing through the red light
Light posts undone
The hum of the blown engine
On the side of the road
One second notice
A repeating note
The world and it purveyors
On the streets tonight
Underneath the crashed post
Right by the trucks side
Stew
Stew
Made fresh in the morning
On Manhattan Avenue
As the world wakes up and gets going
The stew boils and bellows
The streets fill with busy feet
While the world gets ready
A Cup of Songwriting
