Solemn slick woe Larry cook swallow flight bow

Courageous benevolent sweet nice cute crush ill

Hatchet rest spoiled choose gain freeze please as

Brothers
I never thought we’d come to this place—
You and me on opposing sides, in a race
Against time, against each other, against freedom.
Never thought I’d be fighting a brother in the kingdom.
Sometimes, I get confused about all the issues.
Hold it now, I need a box of tissues.
Life has taught me to be true to those
Close to me, who’d give me the clothes off their back.
Maybe if we try to make this moment count,
Dig in, and give it all we’ve got.
Can you see the light coming at you now?
Don’t leave me here to just fester and rot!
You mean a lot to me, I wish you could
Accept that simple truth as a fact.
Let’s do the right thing, like eating your favorite food.
It feels good, even to be caught in the act.
Everything we learned yesterday doesn’t come
To mean a thing without love.
Every heart we’ve broke just feels like some
Kind of putting our head in a stove.
But you and me, we’ve been around the block.
We know the rules, and the pain, there’s no going back.
It’s not too late to correct yourself.
Just put those lies on the back shelf.
Hear me say, it’s not the same thing
As going on the first date.
Going steady makes me irate.
Take off like a big spring
That’s all I got, so take it or leave it!
Slip
Block spat cool rewind rocky slow beef and polio
Albino truth perspective drawing leitmotif cranial
Veins tackle scoop Chevy loud proxy cook van hot
Banish land when tandem lawn eerie womb itself
Plum caulk thermometer chick lame anchovy slip
A Rose
Wishing for a prick from a rose.
A simple thorn on a living stick.
A crying form, a tenuous flick.
Close your eyes and sing a song.
Prove me right, though I am wrong.
From the top of my pointed head
To the end of my bony toes.
Believing
Safe harbor, a dream. Closing eye lids.
Can you see the darkness coming across the sky?
An echo in the chasm, a silent scream.
Dragging one’s feet in the dirt, the stones, the ice.
Only to find one is alone.
Cast one’s sight into the distance.
Nothing present, Nothing past, Nothing to come
Will separate one from the love of God.
