Be right
Be arrogant
Belligerent
Cognoscente
Of the words
Used
Be opaque
With answers
Of abuse
Make the proper
Joke
At the proper time
What has happened
Stays behind the line
Be right
Demagogue of sport
Be right
Today
Tonight
Be right
Be arrogant
Belligerent
Cognoscente
Of the words
Used
Be opaque
With answers
Of abuse
Make the proper
Joke
At the proper time
What has happened
Stays behind the line
Be right
Demagogue of sport
Be right
Today
Tonight
Long breaks
Is what it takes
To reconnect
With the words
That can be off
Or correct
Up in the woods
Or down flat on the deck
Taking these breaks
Is what makes
Me keep coming back
A studio in the shore ditch of
London
A fresh sea
On the coast of Chicago
As the summer rolls up
Its sleeves
Bringing more heat tomorrow
On a ledge
Cut from fresh grasses
And hedges
The summer rolls on
And wrinkles my shirts
Edges
What comes next
What pillar to fall
While the justices
Disrupt
Peace for all
What can be attacked
And won
When mere human will
Is running thin
We set our own fate
Etched in stone
Now as the gavel falls
One by one
It’s each man and woman
For their own
Confusing musings
Of the art
Of distraction
Artificial attraction
The powerful few
Direct their efforts
To distract
The main crew
Abstractions of actions
And intent
No actions made
No messages sent
So how to tell the truth
Of the few
When lying is a standard
Act of the new forces
Can we define the future
Decide with knife and suture
What will be remembered
And forgotten
Is the past obsolete
Or a defining feature
Of what growth must be
Debating
What will lead us forward
Or what holds us back
Can we define the future
And be so matter of fact
Some will be dismissed
Some gathered
My own mind
Would rather
Be in the moment
And experience reality
Not technology
Depressions ridden
Alphabetically
Future
Or
Past
What will go
And what will last
A poison occupation
Can lead to a toxic
Soul
A hope
For more
Amongst the closing doors
Of life
Lazy rain
On a Monday
New Year’s Eve
Hours away
Bring the fresh start
Without the clouds
Doing their part
Come new year
In due time
Start again
Feeling fine
Lean in to hear
The words spoken softly
Worth waiting to hear
Every moment
Every cheer
Lean in time
Lean in past and future
Teach me
With the lean in
Straight ahead
With no deviation
One handed guide
Swiftly through the nation
Embalmed with lies
Far and wide
You could see the twinkle
Lost in his eyes
Straight ahead he said
With no remotes
Stay consistent
Stay in course
