  1. The heavens keep moving
    Who put them in motion?
    Who made them sparkle?
    Time can be slow or fast
    Dependent on your illusion
    God's calendar that he gave us
    Takes patience. Day and night
    Night and day. I guess it is his gift.
    Because if there is a God
    He gave us the present
    We can't exist
    With only dark
    We can't exist with only light.
    Monuments built
    And they took alot of construction
    Was God satisfied?
    I know that was the wrong question
    He's never protected all the monuments
    He put his questions in our head.

    ATTENTION A MESSAGE FROM KING OF FORREST

    As King of the Forrest
    I am going to insist
    On everybody

    Please? Doing
    Anything
    Or just one thing
    I ask
    Everything will be put on a list
    Awake from the dream
    OK
    Like multiple choice
    Don't be angry
    But i am not going to give you a cheat sheet
    EXCEPT IT IS WHATS UNDERLINED
    The only way for you to get credit
    is to close your eyes and choose a song
    AS KING OF THE FORREST
    WELCOME TO MY WORLD
    Won't you come on in
    MIRACLES THEY HAPPEN NOW AND THEN

    Is there anybody out there?
    Anyone at all
    Who will talk
    With just 1 little show
    of honesty
    strong or soft
    I won't put you down
    I'll just listen
    if you are mad
    it will pass
    if you're in love
    stay in God's column
    but you will have to Explain
    1 thought or 1 fear 1 question
    I COMMAND AS KING OF THE FORREST
    to PLEASE tell me something
    I haven't heard on the jukebox
    You've got your quarter
    that you are going to drop
    Already on your feet
    in front of all those possibilities
    Your mind is connecting
    with those small titles and numbers
    The coin is gone
    You know the feeling you expect
    I stand facing the jukebox
    and the wall
    I hide my tears
    "I'll let you be in my dream
    if I can be in yours"
    Nobody's voice
    except you
    and me
    I won't tell
    Just talk to the cloud
    Each thing told
    has value
    If it comes from
    the heart and mind
    then explain
    It might be a coat
    for someone in the cold
    Or an impossible dream shared
    Play on the slide guitar
    or pedal steel
    impossible chords
    Yeah I am trying to wake you
    to your worth
    BUT EVEN AS
    KING OF THE FORREST
    I can't take away what you have done
    or planning.

    I agree and we do need to work on the rating buttons.
     
  4. I wish there was a "Dreamy" button King. Both my husband and I love the way you write. I bet you are a brilliant lyricist.

  5. FROM A POLISH GYPSY
    CONSEQUENCES

    I'ts a very big word
    a bigger Concept
    maybe the Biggest
    IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD
    yet at the same time
    one that touches
    each of us.
    And keeps God awake
    and worrying.
    Know why Napoleon almost conquered the world?
    Communication
    Never before had any general
    contolled the battlefield
    with so much speed
    yeah that was his genius
    don't believe me?
    He conquered the world twice
    I hope that you are staying with me
    I know for a fact
    that kids today
    aren't all zombies
    We didn't listen
    We rebelled against authority
    Thank God they are the same species
    It came to me
    that the plan of God was
    to change every child
    every son and daughter
    to make them find
    their own way
    If God wanted
    he would have put us on our knees
    he could have put us on our knees
    ten-two-and four or all day long
    Each generation is a rebel without a cause
    to the elders
    I prefer not to get personal
    I would like to hear someone else's story.
    I'll let you be in my dream
    if I can be in yours.

  6. I NEED HELP
    I woke up with a question
    what is more important
    any kind of genius Unique
    or what everybody Wants
    and that is money
    I think therefore i am right
    to myself
    Because I've got everything
    anyone could possibly want*
    but there are questions that
    I'd like to have some
    help with
    And late at night
    for years I have been wondering
    what makes us who
    we are?
    * see last post except that pool boy

    And by definition
    college degree
    an expert about the past
    but now with instant communication
    the definition of history is changed
    and I am trying to catch up with it
    and change it
    I am an educator
    till proven not
    oh I've got some questions
    Are you a lone wolf
    or a joiner
    are you more comfortable watching the sunrise
    or do you anticipate tomorrow's news
    participating in each day's happening?
    I won't judge you
    either way
    I am just interested
    about why
    we are?
    What are we?
    I mean is it ethnicity
    like heritage or your immediate
    partner your papa or
    your granny
    Are you white
    black
    half black
    brown white
    snow white
    yellow white
    Now I know this can get complicated
    but getting back to my intent
    we now have something that's never happened before
    a chance to explain to
    those who will or might
    listen later
    how it was
    why it was
    why we did what we did
    to explain our humanity
    our hopes
    our dreams
    our morals
    how we structure each day and get by
    Or are we at the big game
    for once history can be personal
    not the big battles of
    a war
    or thousands of deaths
    for nothing
    sometimes
    you be the judge
    now it is our time
    to leave something behind
    that is personal.

  7. HAVE YOU BEEN TO THE LOUVRE
    Have you been to the Louvre?
    Or Mexico City historical museum?
    After fifty steps
    I knew it was too much for me.
    How to interpret the masters?
    I was blinded by so much genius.
    A lifetime could be spent
    corralling Michelangelo
    The David
    Mona Lisa
    Impressionism.
    Got it, good, lets go on.
    The history of art is a foundation.
    Nothing in our world is ever done
    without the past.
    As I walked along the corridor
    I was humbled and awed.
    Really I was crying in public.
    Overwhelmed by work
    dedication
    again genius
    often times not rewarded.
    So how could I explain
    my feelings and tears?
     
  8. HI HO, HI HO
    What is work
    hold that thought, is it?
    Dealing with all the bullshit that
    you cant escape?
    For me waking up
    terroriistic warnings
    war on the horizon
    forever.
    And those diseases
    but that is not how I make a living.
    You see
    I've got a degree
    I"m a specialist
    I spent a lot of time
    and money
    to get here.
    If you don't believe it
    call my toll free number
    or just log on
    you will see all of my accomplishments
    trophy wife
    gold plated cars
    a pool boy
    don't ask he's illegal
    and it is a lot of work to keep up with.
    All of this
    and a pink BMW.
    Don't mess with me about that.
    Back to work
    work work work
    I am all of the three dwarfs.
     
  9. URBAN LEGEND
    Of course I can remember
    about heros told.
    How the precipice
    was tilted and won
    like the Alamo.
    But nobody spit on them
    when they came back.
    Well they didn't have to worry about that
    because they didn't come back.
    If you are dead
    you are not living on.
    If you fight for a cause and country
    you might have to live on.
    How to sleep
    how to arrange
    the reasons
    give and take
    put bullets in
    and if you are lucky
    take the enemy
    away.
    Tomorrow comes and the question
    is camouflage.
    Another day
    death and life, life and death.
    One moment lost
    as dreaming could be your last.
    The last thought might not
    be so bad, it will come.
    Like it or not.
    Proud, ashamed
    put on your hat
    let your hair grow long.
    Hiding has become a way
    of life.

  10. THE HIGHER GROUND
    It doesn't last long on purpose
    Like a sunset or
    A sunrise
    Oh but it is physical and visual
    I guess why that is some people
    Must climb to the top of mountains
    Even if it's for only a moment.
    Don't confuse them with those
    Who climb to the top of monuments
    Man made
    A conscience is not for sale
    It is like rain
    Suddenly it is not around
    You do everything you can
    To make it happen
    First you think
    Then you ask
    Then you dance
    And sing
    Last resort
    You promise
    Without results
    In a dream
    There's your answer
    You were powerless
    The car won't stop
    Your feet won't work
    You can't even speak

    FLASH
    Morning
    Your on a higher ground
    You did what you could
    Smile at the first one you see
    That looks like they deserve it.
