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
When it turns
Upside down
Other sides
Of a forgotten town
We know the future
The uncertain past
Welcome home
We loved through
The past
The steel notebook
Full of nondescript poems
Powered by sea foam
And purchased in time
The steel notebook
Has no rules or outcomes
Held on the corners
The steel notebook can fall
Back into my hands
Don’t wear
The thought badge
Out
When you can speak
Your mind
Don’t keep quiet
And hope thoughts
Will
Save
The World
Quiver to succeed
But never give up
Holding up the reigns
Filling up the cup
Reflections
On time passed
Opportunities
Taken
Friendships that last
The future holds what I do not know
Or understand
So I appreciate today
I appreciate the land
Where I end up
Is out of my hands
The hum of the pig
Flying down the highway
On a rainy Tuesday
Headed out of town
An illegal badge
Hungover road
As we set our hearts anew
Ratty and marked
These measures are
Progress can be eyed
In the beholder
Of none
Holding up hope
While being torn down
By one
A steam engine rallies
While the iron industry looms
Lake nights
In the second room
Pattern convulsion
On the seat of my pants
Holding on tight
With the palm of my hands
If I had a wish
I would wish away
All the troubles of the world
Today
Pattern convulsion
Up in the sky
The clouds scattered
Like a bursting star
At midnight
Pattern and prose
All I know
These words
Take me where
I want to go
Tidy lies
Closed eyes
Open with triggers
From words
Said
Clear
Crystal
Reminders
Of lies
Told perfectly
In the public eye
A Cup of Songwriting
