Run and duck
We may be stuck
Diplomatic wheels turning
Engine burning
We run low on gas
Late on details
It seems if the cart shakes
More
We will be off the rails
So we shimmy on
On and on
We
Plug along
Diplomat Wheels

Rain in LA
A rainy night in LA
Water sliding down the window pane
The cars echoes like coins in a chamber
Airplanes fill the sky
On a late night in downtown LA
Intrusion of Delusion
The intrusion of delusion
Sets itself apart
By itself
Is quite a confusion
Look over here while I adjust this light
Walk a little more to the right
While I grab this pen
Magical intent
Disturbing ends
These games know no boundaries
Have gained such evil intent
An interpretation of truth
Easily becomes the golden standard
Not quite sure where our judgment lies
So we must see with our own eyes
Judge with our own minds
The age of spoon fed politics
Is a bygone time
Could We Have Known
Could we have known
That cobwebs would stretch
Over our path
Blocking our view
This is where we are at now
And no one knew
Hope & Energy
Hope gives me hope
Energy gives me clarity
So I hope I can be clear
In hope and in energy
Wrapped Up in Humanity
From east to west
Uneasy unrest
Wrapped up in humanity
Inhumanity
Lies become truth
Truth become lies
We have lost our ability to decipher the truth
And don’t care to sympathize
From the low to the highs
I hope we can somehow discover the truth
Realize
Banter from true lies
But it takes the average citizens to get involved
Even though our whole worlds have revolved
Around disorientation
It must stop and we must begin
People acting in collaboration is when people win
A Risky Toast
From coast to coast
We raise a risky toast
To love and opportunity
Peace through resistance
Growth through Unity
These times will be marked with
Fraudulent politicians
While plumbers and musicians
Unite on the streets
Of New York City
To say that we won’t back down
Lay down
Or roll over
Not until the fascism is over
Nor the rains have passed
We will stand together at last
United in diversity
United stronger through this diversity
For arrogance knows now mercy
And neither do we
No Sympathy for Idiocracy
No sympathy for idiocracy
No celebration in degradation
No hope in fear
No love in hate
We stand more united today
Than ever before
One man can not run the floor
We are learning the hard way
So let it be our takeaway
Love and action
Love and action
Love in action
Let’s act together
Now is Not the Time
Reflection
Dejection
Introspection
Inflection
Now is not the time
To be quiet
Bored with Peace
That’s is what the commentator said
Those three words I dread
Unbelievable
Untrue
I have feared this from every limb
These words settled so grim
How do we arrive at such uneasy emotions
A stirring in the depths of the sea
This is our new reality
The world is changing in front of our eyes
While we are staring eyelids wide
I hope this is not true
But I have a feeling the words are on to a clue
Buckle us up
I hope to be here
When the next 4 years are through
A Cup of Songwriting
