2.52834: 10/21/19 : The Plan Behind

Seeing the apocalypse
does not come swift
and seems no
chance of healing
this national rift
and mulling the prospect
I'm long years for
this scrape
try to find the
plan behind
the rubric:
change is the
only escape

2.5283 : 10/20/19 : Imaginary Books

All imaginary books
the studio
a neck on that
guitar
could work you know
the branching path
game
boy that goes
way back
wish I'd kept that TRS
and stayed on track
And really on the
docket
hacking at the
grind
jeeze but what a
downer
All the same
mind

2.5282 : 10/19/19 : HALF

It's all the run up
the run up
on the half century
ohell is there
going to be another
better hit me
with the evidentiary
woo I didn't used to
disdain a shot
at getting venerable
not quite two years
to get right with God
I guess
attitudes untenable
how much more
can I talk about it
God don't test me
still haven't figured
out the next thing
or if the half glass
is yet to
best me

2.5281 : 10/18/19 : Sunrise

Sunrise
not even planned
one interval
deciduous
fall side
spanned
Soon give over
to utter dark
and the days
of desperately
trying to shelter
the spark

2.5280 : 10/17/19 : Sunset

Somewhere in there
Sunset lit under clouds
color of a finch's breast
away from cars and crowds
beauty comes easy but so brief
and the fight is feeling mortal
and far from imagining
the passage ends in a portal

2.5279 : 10/16/19 : Sign Off

One of those
wrap it up days
American flag
sign-off music plays
been none of that
a whole lot of years
all goes non-stop
So many tiers
So many channels
such a chaos mob
that barely notes
while it stuffs its gob
but not to dwell
focus on the beam
on the sign off kick
and conserve my steam

2.5278 : 10/15/19 : Phase Zero

Phase zero
don't think about
the time scale
as far as older
aspirations
we're gonna have
a fire sale
No one wanted
to build on a
burned out shell
but it seems we're
stuck here for a while
so what the hell
So many enemies
of good
most will never face it
but I think you should
I'll be shoulder to shoulder
at the mirror
clocking that mug
maybe the time
has finally come
to do more than shrug

2.5277 : 10/14/19 : Change the Story

So change the story
never lost
Not a degree of course
A pin in every cost
Confidently sailing
right at the master
plan
better yet
meshed in the moment
as it eternally
began
a generation waits
to see the big reveal
and the rift
begins to heal
