Creeps the stench into the room, Through an open door, our doom, Oily sticky sour smell, Ain't Heaven must be hell, Large grow-op cannot be far, Perhaps a skunk versus a car? Peace and quiet taken for a oneway ride, As there is now a stink, high on Eventide, It has come in.

The Scent of Eventide
wispy clouds on a blue sky and a blood- less sunset, lost on all for now some despised boys in cowardly mens bodies have more bul- lets than teeth, yet the chickenshit bites and mark and grief they leave behind, spent casings litter the halls of learning peace, pieces, seething, see the thing is now, lost on all for now   so how much hate do you have to harbour, to ****** a child? yet the clouds of witnesses stay silent; no, not the common man, the common women, who have in common with you and I, tears falling from, my eyes our eyes, there is horror, there is shock there is mouths open and no air is getting to the lungs, a silent scream for justice, as no one can bring the children back, memories do not cut the loses, yet the clouds of witnesses stay silent; those seats of power must be real com- fortable at this hour eschewing respon- sibility, for there is no gain by get- ting involved, the ultimate of pre-emptive fear, how hard can they be to find leaving a yellow streak wherever they go, crawling on their yellow bellies. this is not to be read, out loud for even the sound and rhythm, from anywhere in world, would break hearts, my heart cannot make rhyme and reason about this crime,  see there is an evil scaramouch, no credit the pantywaist deserves, takes on flesh and payment is required. What is lost on all for now.. What is lost on all for now.. What is lost on all Africa for now.. The value, the energy, the beauty, the potential, the future, there were musicians, there were geniuses, there philan- thropists, there were artists, ** there were poets,** they were children and grandchildren, they were going to be parents, they were going have children and that is lost on all for now and forever.

it isn't snow it isn't snow it isn't snow, but it is so wet, not the wettest winter yet, but you can't call this winter, April showers started in October, oh we had some sun oh we had some sun oh we had fun, little time $spent$ on the $slopes$ one part of tourism had to cope, with weather patterns, that go in seventeen year cycles or fifty one year bunches, no pulling punches, but who makes this stuff up? the drought will follow water restrictions to swallow, will there nary a drop of water to drink? I have a cow bank, white and black sitting empty on my desk, by my elbow, waiting to be filled with, all my savings for a rainy day spent, for as the saying goes "save something for a rainy day" we have had so many rainy days, it is all spent cow is bent out of shape, and starving for some coin of the realm, and the natural order of things, scrambled, saw three ducks out of their lake, taking a chance to take swim in a monster puddle in a Wallmart parking lot!
