Creatures Of Love
In the twinkling star night you were there
Half moon smile and fair skies everywhere
Not a cloud would dull your day
Every planet seemed to say, love this creature if you dare
When the summer rain falls from the sky
Legend says that's when the heavens cry
But they're misty tears of joy only nature can deploy
Daring sadness to defy
You were hear today
Will you rise tomorrow?
In your sunny way
Take my sorrow and cleanse it with love
In a river stocked with broken dreams
Tributaries bursting at the seams
there's a gentle waterfall washing over one and all
Splashing joy as it redeems
Please return today
Drown me in desire
Let me lead the way and conspire to follow the love
And follow everywhere it goes
Happenstance bestows
where and when is something no one knows
From a fragrant forrest love alights
Creatures rising as the sun ignites
They're impossible to tame and they've come here to reclaim love and all of its delights
Love has come today
Singing songs forever
Showing us the way
We've been tethered like creatures of love
Here is where we'll stay
Bound together like creatures of love

The Greatest Moment In History
World war four is knocking at your door
World war three never happened
Armed and proud the bluster here is loud
Good intentions fouled
Lock and load in hyperbolic mode
Spin the tale with the wind in your sails
Sneak attack the saber's in my back
too late to retract
Win the war and lose the battle
You have earned the right to prattle
On about your victory
The greatest moment in history
Out to lunch I caught a sucker punch
In the dark all I heard was a crunch
Should have seen the game was turning mean
Such a selfish scheme
Lose the war and win the battle
You have earned the right to prattle
Sickening hyperbole
The greatest moment in history
It's so hard to call a truce you see with no accountability
Cold ambition is the enemy
A battle for supremacy you see
World war four came knocking at your door
Bringing all you've ignored to the fore
Cowering afraid of everything that this fight could bring
Bring the rain and steal the thunder
This world is for you to plunder
There will be no guilty plea
The greatest moment in history
Flowers bloom from rancid soil
Even weeds will soon recoil
Brothers acting sisterly
The greatest moment in history

The Guise Of Comedy
Under the guise I can seltzer your face, insult your race, put you down in disgrace
Under the guise I can poke in your eyes, justify cries and attack you with pies
The lonely banana peel waits for victims to topple the over and...
Under the guise I can never grow old, fit in the mold, never do what I'm told
Under the guise In can sing out of tune, spit-take and bow and then laugh like a loon
The tiny clown running toward you will scar you for life and he'll give you balloons
Comedy, comedy you wear it so well
Sometimes it's so tight I can see your head swell
But when the fit's right this hysterical sight can brighten the darkest of nights
When things go haywire tramps and buffoons scale the heights
City lights don't always shine so bright
In these modern times riddled with fright
If I drop my pants right will it make you smile?
Will hilarity ensue?
Will you laugh and whoop, or will you think that I'm vile
Comedy, comedy you wear it so well
Sometimes it's so tight I can see your head swell
But when the fit's right you will surely surmise the prize is the gift of the guise
The gift of the guise is the prize
The prize is the gift of the guise

The Monuments
Nobody knows what tomorrow will bring when the drums don't beat and the birds won't sing
Everyone thinks that we've got it in hand "til the servants start refusing to stand
It's coming down, but we haven't a sign when the righteous ways will misalign
Treachery fouls what the order should be as the hordes ignore their destiny
You work for me so take a knee at your expense
I'll set you free the day that they topple the monuments
Factions deflated and drifting away
They won't live to fight another day
No one's united, divided we fall
There will be no victor standing tall
You live in peace upon the gift of consent
I'll set you free the day that they topple the monuments
The day that they bring down the statues and pulverize the past
The ghosts will be ground in to powder
The graven marble recast
Stone gods are tumbling and fracturing now and the help won't rise and the fields won't plough
Rope 'round the neck of an idol dethroned
From the past unbound
Never to be owned
You've been set free, so mark this paramount event
Slain effigy
The pivotal death of a monument
See history the day that they topple the monuments

Reconstruction
Come in from the pouring rain
You have washed away your shame
Proffer to forgive the wind
So much damage to rescind
Weather beaten, ripped and torn
Ragged pair lost and forlorn
Board the windows, buckle down
This will pass, but risk abounds
Trinkets lost and treasures found
All beneath the dirty ground
Biting
Scratching
Set the pieces back in place
scattered remnants laid to waste
Reconstruction lies ahead
No place for the weak to tread
Drowning
Cawing
Fighting our way through the storm
