The Lost Soul

"While death consumes us" immediately makes me think of Donnie.

THE LOST SOUL

He lost out on too many today's

Missed out on friends along the way

In his life the past was self-imposed

He walked his path with yesterday's ghosts

Dreams were replaced with nightmares

He saw scorn in people's stares

The heartbreak he could not avoid

He lived his life as paranoid

Escape was there had he reached out

But his preference was a life of doubt

A bottle was his only friend

He paid his dues with shots of gin

They saw him and immediately turned away

He'd driven them off to their
dismay

It's hard for loved ones to intervene

In a life that's lived in Halloween

It's All About Today

Do not fear death so much but rather the inadequate life." Betroit Brecht

IT'S ALL ABOUT TODAY

Such a shame it would be

To alter life in fear of death

One will lose a piece of longevity

When he questions every breath

Turned loose, we were, to dignify

Our own existence here on earth

Given a chance to signify

Just what we thought our worth

Fear should never be of the end

As we concentrate on our present task

Today is what counts not where we've been

Or what we can forecast

It's Just What Will Come

Mark Twain said that "The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time."

IT'S JUST WHAT WILL COME

It has been a busy life

Good times, bad times

Exceptional days and strife

But mostly just everyday times

There have been days so devastating

That death would have been preferred

I hated just participating

In some crap that had occurred

But mostly I put my trust in God

I feared death as just unknown

Dwelling on it would be quite odd

But I wondered where I was going

Life itself was more the question

As I had to face it on my own

The certainty of death in my impression

Is always etched in stone

There is no changes I could make

To prevent death when it shall come

I'll glean from life what I can take

As I just keep moving on

Changing Change

"The framers of the constitution knew that free speech is the friend of change and revolution. But they also knew that it was the deadliest enemy of tyranny." Hugo Black

CHANGING CHANGE

Truth, justice, and freedom of speech

The tantamount goal in which we reach

It's the logical solution

The key to revolution

It's the history lessons we are called upon to teach

The facts that prove the lawmakers wrong

The patriotism that will rise in song

Where the swords are that of truth

And the lies are slain with proof

Evidence in hand we all respond

When laws and regulations empower

Big government  to reign as the people cower

It's our catalyst to call their bluff

The polls can't open soon enough

The unity within our republic is our power

Our Revolution

Victor Hugo said "When dictatorship is a fact, revolution becomes a right."

OUR REVOLUTION

These modern days and times

When we call for revolution

It won't be the wrath of early days

When bearing arms was the solution

It is now we call on Americans

To think with hearts and head

To recognize the truth from lies

Asking for sensibility instead

Today our revolution

Is to stop now and take pause

And realize the changes forthcoming

Are from unfair, stifling laws

We must convince the people that the handouts

Are merely bribes and pacifiers

And the progressives that are coddling us

Are really thrives and liars

Let the revolution come

For the sake of future generations

And may our ammunition be

Votes to stop this trsnsformation

Failed Document

"BUT if the constitution really be one thing, or another, this much is certain...that it has either authorized such a government as we have had, OR HAS BEEN POWERLESS TO PREVENT IT. In either case, it is unfit to exist." Lysander Spooner

FAILED DOCUMENT

If the honor of America

Will fall as it has risen

If the people within the country

Become victims of division

If big government corruption

Throws us all into the Abyss

Has the constitution failed us?

Should it continue to exist?

THE TIGER

Confuscius says "An oppressive government is more to be feared than a tiger."

THE TIGER

Crouching silently in wait

It's beauty and dignity belie its ferocity

With claws so sharp and teeth so deadly

The oppressive government destroys our liberty
