I have written this letter of my impending death Of my own will, my delusion, in my last breath A spear breaches the armor, pain penetrates the soul I bear this wound in horror and march on through the snow Oh, that I were home with you Blessed to be of the surviving few To live the dream of freedom’s bliss To escape the ink of death’s list There the young shall fear no more The old shall rest with unlocked doors There I shall play guitar and sing And through the walls our laughter rings Friends and neighbors shall smile and wave There upon fresh linens we shall lay To sleep the dark and rejoice the dawn There the ties to life hold strong Yet these tides have turned against the meek My burning eyes grow tired and weak I fear the cold has come to stay And the blinding night has replaced the day I attempt to hide in my pretense But the storm is nigh, the fog grows dense Redeemer of these fallen stars The sky grows darker where you are By these sands of time running low I’m not so far from letting go An enemy dances at our gates Internal bigotry, fear and hate Our children die in foreign wars And here we ask "what was it for?” Until at last we are no more

NECTAR IN A PUMPKIN
To and fro I travel Yet I find no place to rest The hardened heart Grows colder Bleeding less and less Yet as I lay Upon hard ground There's a lack of comfort To be found Still my restless spirit And my hungry heart Beckons me to worlds afar...

THE TRAVELING SPIRIT
Underdog was cold and tired When he took his first red pill Hidden within his ring On his K-9 finger It was quite the mighty thrill Scooby-Doo and Shaggy too What's in those Scooby Snacks Up against the perils of evil Yet the snack still brings you back Mighty Mouse and his magic powder He snorted magic up his nose When I was just a little kid So many years ago...
