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
Ready for change
In time
Corrections
Rearrangements
Replacements
Preparing the table
Setting it up
Sturdy and stable
We will move ahead
Into the blowing winds
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
Kids and a grand daughter
In the greatest of way
We talk
We laugh
Ain’t that the truth
I reply
As we slide through the history
We make friends
In these moments
All through life
Love me today
In a moment of disgrace
Weakness
And fear
Love my soul
Love me as we grow old
Weakness and health
Poverty or wealth
Just love me
Certain meanings
Tucked in certain places
Certain feelings
Away in foolishness sameness
Salisbury steak on a Tuesday
Makes for a weird wire of digestion
As Wednesday approaches
Regret in tempting the only remnants
Of a Salisbury steak
Ruby fields
When the sun sets deep
In the western skies
Near the art of water
In summertime
Longing grains of wheat
Holding hands to the sky
Dancing
In the evening moonlight
Point mail
Portions
Off in the air
Sent off the rails
I need the point mail
Sent right to the point of contact
The ignorant rifle
Has no aim
No connection
To a soul
To a human heart
It is made of cold steel and wood
Keep it tucked away
Like we should
Ignorant rifles
Have no place in a home
In a community
This mutiny
Stops
When the guns are put away
Fuck the experts
I need some resident advice
This may sound tense
Or absurd
But rather I need
A fresh word
Of silence and peace
Some perspectives
I can not reach
Come and stay residents claim
I need some time
And some resident advice
A Cup of Songwriting
