Thanks for the time
Paradigm
Shift
Over our eyes
Thanks for the truth
When there are lies
When I am lost and
Found
I know where I can sound off
The truth
Thank you
Thank You

Countdown to Feeling
The feeling of departure
Leaving a situation
A city
Streets of the commonplace
A place
Where the hole human race
Walks the same streets
I will be sad to depart a city
But for great opportunity
I must let go
In order to grow
The city has taught me
Many lessons
Now I must go
New Brew
Fill
Pull
Roast
Start the clock
Green beans fill the roaster
With another batch
Of sweet fresh coffee
On 6th Avenue
To be sent all over the city
Fresh cups to fill
Warm sport to enjoy
On a cold winters night
Old Time News
Street views
Of old time news
What comes in the wind
In the morning or at night
Old time news
Learning from the past
Our own goal
Window pane strolls
On Sunday afternoons
Empire Time
Empire time
From the streets of Brooklyn
From dynasty of old
Yesteryears
Untold stories
Empire time is coming
For us all
Enticed by what the future holds
Make nice
With Empire Time
These Days of Wonder
Somehow the future
So quickly slips to the past
Unnoticed
Yet as smooth as a escalator
Carrying forth with no
Indifference
The days of wonder go by
From a cafe in Williamsburg Brooklyn
I will remember these days soon
As they pass from current to
Past
These moments go quickly
And pass
Air to Breathe
Air to breathe
Needed on some days
When overwhelming thoughts
Occur
And reoccur
Just a bit of wind
In the lungs
Can be the song needed
To be sung
Back and Forth
Leaving the city
Back and forth
Working for our dream
Letting go of what is in between
The city grew us up
In much-needed ways
Now we feel that
We must get away
Steep rent and subtle
Increase in food
All that is need for it
To come undone
What if we held on
But held back
From our dreams
Giving up for the city things
A Good Day
Do you think it will be a good one
The man leans in
To his friend
Hoping for a positive message back
That will be sent
On a cold day in New York City
What makes a good day
What makes a bad day
On the streets of Manhattan
Looking up at the tall buildings
While the people keep passing
I think it will be a good one
With sunshine and charity
Let’s hope for a good one
Today
Head Down
Hopes and dreams
Pretty distant things
As in one moment
Creeps away
With speedy wings
How should I proceed
When the headlines
Read
All is headed down
Across the world
A giant frown
I guess I will just
Keep a brisk pace
And keep my own head down
