2.4229 : 11/30/16 : Abide

Can't abide

a minute more

I'll draw or claw

or dig a door

in a dream

or in the cursed

cube

So desperate

they'll never catch me rube

what

2.4228 : 11/29/16 : The Mess It Led To

Need to remedy or redeem

all it ever falls to

or does it only seem

fearing the next

reckoning

and none call

none are beckoning

another falseness

dressed as a passion

so are we tangled

fleeing the ration

that was super sufficient

oh if we only knew

but did not

and the mess it led to

what

2.4227 : 11/28/16 : Grant Me to Defy All Expectations

Grant me to defy

all expectations

give unto me

the wealth of nations

and I'll build a tower

through to the light

above the clouds

on its hill a shining sight

what

2.4226 : 11/27/16 : World Wants Blood

World wants blood

nothing else

violent death

that's all that sells

and I'm no hack

for that ghoul horse

not that anybody's

offered me a sou of course

what

2.4225 : 11/26/16 : Dope

This apperitif is straight dope

tighten up the paper

On your airplane wings

and hope

You never strike a spark

descend the flaming

angel, hark

after such a vision

where to land

open the car window

cruise an airplane hand

no idea how I got here

Where this highway leads

finish your dope

and mind these reeds

what

2.4224 : 11/25/16 : DeepWall

If I could show you

about the deepwall dream

the balcony apartment

the things that were seen

the dose effect

the electric crowd

the exhibition of

the slow and loud

but oh it all led

to a long unmagical day

and oh it leaves me

not wanting

very much, to say

what

2.4223 : 11/24/16 : Ever Loving

I am thankful

why mess it up

with debating the state

of the ever-loving

cup

of the occupant in

chief

or the retail

excesses

time enough

on all the other days

to decry the messes

I am thankful

for all my

many faults

may I carry that

shield

upon the next day's

assaults

what

2.4222 : 11/23/16 : Little Coal

Not caring to fan

the hot little coal

or try to even

see the goal

maybe we can let go

just a night and day

back on the grind soon

anyway

what

2.4221 : 11/22/16 : Free World

Free world

don't squander it

free to roam

free to ponder it

entropy is real

best to fear it

talk of a free lunch

I won't hear it

here to enjoy

here to make a mark

here to start something

here to strike a spark

in our beautiful free world

watch the fires you start

better start acting like you mean it

better start acting smart

what

2.4220 : 11/21/16 : Plans & Ideas

Plans and Ideas

had a million

no followers

and now the tide vermillion

seems imminent

little time to plan

or gin up my reputation

as an ideaman

the real sick bugs

are crawling outta the wood

and if you aren't planning yet

boy you should

what

2.4219 : 11/20/16 : Green Cup

Big disruption maybe

wake me up

no revelation not from

this green cup

a little calm would surely

soothe my soul

tell myself it's just

an object

and no great hole

So very easy

to fall off routine

maybe no shock

will help me view the scene

Still a long road

even to half the way

and all my loose ends

on display

what

2.4218 : 11/19/16 : Grit

Grit my teeth

while I sleep

one more

bad habit

watch that

green turning

ring pass don't

even try to grab it

not tonight

anyway

another iffy day

felt mad enough

to spit

but anyway

I've still got grit

what

2.4217 : 11/18/16 : Stone Age

Knocked back to my

stone ages

power failure

no point in rages

call it a vacation

from the damn tubes

wringing hands

over the wrath of the rubes

worry over Caeser

and the devil's due

the pitiable failure

of my weak kung fu

but at least maybe

I'll make up some rest

since it just keeps coming harder

and I haven't been my best

what

2.4216 : 11/17/16 : No Rolling

No rolling back days

no easy plays

every square

hard fought now

whatever anchors

I've got now

won't drop easy

chains won't

simply part

I guess I ought to be

joyfull

thay I've still

got heart

get a little

get up and go

in this

where it all went

pronounce once last

the thing is an

accident

and get rolling

crest the next hill

It's a little great

and only getting

better still

what

2.4215 : 11/16/16 : White Lies

White lies pile up like

snow that might yet

come the week

Me without crystal ball

though sorely sure

I'd take a peek

running out of reading

recycle or scrounge

something new

hell I need to toughen up

let a few less

white lies through

what

2.4214 : 11/15/16 : Catastrophe

Circle your pointer fingers

shout catastrophe

all faced the wrong way

inward woe is me

will this lazy troupe

get shocked, get back

finally get the message

gather up its damn act

what

2.4213 : 11/14/16 : Thirty

I think I saw my

old age creeping

hit me like a flash

it was coming kind of fast

can't say my reaction

was philosophical

bargains off the bat

surely won't be like that

and you my young one

will flower like

a strong young tree

be chasing dreams

worrying about thirty

barely bear to think

of the surprises

and the crises

drag me back sacred

plant me in my way

roots down in today

what

2.4212 : 11/13/16 : Left In This Heart

Kept heat on it hours

engine hates to start

resign myself

to a hundred pulls

couple billion beats

left in this heart

no pushbutton shit

spite of the battery

no time for wimpy

Self flattery

Hands stretch high

touch me with grace

they'll flinch for sure

at this grim face

what

2.4211 : 11/12/16 : Anything

You can get used to anything

yeah and that's the real scary thing

but here's the hope I want to bring

You can get fed up

with everything - too

And maybe in the

towering pledge

We'll drag it all back

from the ledge

and gain a century's

chance to hedge

or two

what

2.4210 : 11/11/16 : No May

No may

in this month

not merry

how

do you, well

not very

You took

the tower

room

and oh

I abhor

this vacuum

my words

could

never fill

and I spin

them

still

what

2.4209 : 11/10/16 : Little Crazy

little crazy

not just the times

the catalyst

and hark the chimes

but God it's

a delicate fish

and so much balanced

on every wish

what

2.4208 : 11/9/16 : Every Sheep

Not much left

iron church

the battery

close my eyes

while it all

gets scatter-y

half bagged

and half cooked

and oh how every sheep

got rooked

what

2.4207 : 11/8/16 : Called

Called it before

and I'll call it again

I love to call it

before the vote is in

call it joo joo

or a fat dumb hunch

You'll despair what to call it

while I eat your lunch

not even mad

this ain't the end

it's the start

the day my million got down

and started to get smart

what

2.4206 : 11/7/16 : What Will the Future Think

What will the future think

of our little contest

You know I think they'll have

forgotten all about this mess

a bump in one long smear

of shallow drifting waste

hell if they'l mark at all

one sticky lump in the paste

like Rocky said about

water in a black cup

we afford the past no sense of choice

and then I drank it all up

what

2.4205 : 11/6/16 : Genius

Sometimes a glimpse

a little genius flash

feels good okay

but never gets me cash

and never really gels

all fragmentizes

yet I'll be good say thanks

for all little surprises

what

2.4204 : 11/5/16 : Horse

Having worked

like a work horse

deserve

my oats of course

and as to

the usual baloney

blow it off

I'm no show pony

what

2.4203 : 11/4/16 : Evil on the TeeVee

We love evil on the teevee

but it don't stay there boohoo

Yet things stay normal mostly

and I need my teevee kicks just like you

It's a reflection to be sure

well maybe a bit of give and take

evil the abstract clear and pure

impersonal and deadly snake

And the real such disappointment

broken banal gloomy greedy trash

and that fear you ma have an appointment

and some do, and that's the bloody gash

what

2.4202 : 11/3/16 : Life After

I just see

life after everything

no one can

prove anything

to you old

never friend

I'm singing

tried smart

I'll take being kind

the ones we know

only as mind

And like always

nothing in my

hand I'm bringing

what

2.4201 : 11/2/16 : The Big Game

While the big game's

still up in the air

and my level of stress

hell it's just not fair

too many games brewing

bad old world humming

I guess I knew the score

and trouble keeps coming

it's not sewn up yet

me trying to dodge a bad brood

what you get picking favorites

but we're way past mood

must there always be losers?

Oh babe with me you cannot lose

my ear's to the ground

to be sure I'm expecting good news

what

2.4200 : 11/1/16 : Different

Doubt it makes

a bit of difference

but in a bout

of difference

I hung it up

and absconded

not quite satisfied

but unbonded

what
