Notorious jurisdiction
Makes it heard
A new infliction
Point and moment
Sight unseen
This is what the new world means

The Stall Exhibition
Stall exhibition
No prohibition
Problems made
With no resolve
We have to grow
And evolve
Stalling out
Over the holidays
For the world can say
What a great nothing
What a moment to cease
All of that just to
Keep the peace
Red Lights
Red lights at stops
At this stop in the year
The south shore train
Draws near
Blinking in red and white
Double wide loads
As the snow blows
Between the signs
Calling a slowdown
A new year bustles with possibilities
Here
Build Wane
Build wane
Up in the clouds
Near where the rain
Turns to snow
In the waning hours
Of letting go
Up in the lit stars
Among the wires
It looks the same
As when the build falls flat
And the feelings wane
The Tidy Smile
Clean up my face
In a heartbeat
In its place
A tidy smile
For all feelings
All emotions
Rolled off
Like the waves in the ocean
Helping hands
Lift my upper lip
To keep the swagger up
To have a clean fit
Chicago Town
Along the southern shores
Of Lake Michigan
Where the steel mills billow
Black soot into the opaque blue sky
Lies a city
About 40 miles wide
And more
Here along the southern shores
Of a fresh water ocean
Where men and women walk
Along a magnificent mile
City streets
Of Chicago style
Drawing Entitlement
What am I drawn to
Hope for the future
Caring and nurture
I challenge my own words
My own notions
Undergo forgiveness
And simplicity
I have to abstain from
Drawing entitlements
Made in vain
Carry the Fields
Black boxes roll along railroads
Across the country
Through fields
Next to streams
Between trees
And over bridges
Carrying the goods
Burning the coal
In the country we all
Know and love
Creaking
Burning
Beating the iron
With wheels clad
On a Friday
In the Hoosier State
The Little We Know
The little we know
Is holding our growth
The fear of letting go
Prohibits where we can go
If we give up
We give in
Continue on
Thick or thin
The little we know
Hope fear and love
Hold your strength my dear
Keep your eyes to the sun
Jealous Eggnog
Eggnog anyone?
Poured over a hot sipping cup
My eggnog
Your eggnog
This holiday goldfish
Wrapped in infamy
We judge each other
Living in an alternative
Life from the real
Descriptives
Explicative
Holiday treats filled with love
Not jealous emotions
This notion
I hold dear
A Cup of Songwriting
