At a round table there is no dispute about place.

A Round Table
we have this round table
and we put all our hands
on it when we eat and
drink and just talk for
hours and hours and
listen. And we ask what
is happening: Karding
broke a leg and Delia
is looking for the money.
Always it is the money.
Always she is short of
the money. And there
were jewelries hanging
on her neck and arms
and fingers, and we all
ask at this round table:
what is happening?
Nothing, don't mind at
all, this is just a part of
the round table, some
wine glass that broke
and must be swept at
once. We keep away the
sound of a crying pig.
We eat pigs here at this
round table. Then we shifted
the talk about our dead
parents. We pray. We
remember we keep on
saying this. We finish eating
the pig. We drink a very
cold water. Our throats
are irritated and we step
out of the room wanting
to pull away our tongues.
when we come back the
round table is empty.
and we laugh about a
joke that we remember.
our childhood games
the river, and the boat
that father made for us.
we turn off the tv and we
begin to talk about the
beautiful flowers in mother's
old garden, the secret one.
we agree. we miss it.

1 Divided By 2 Equals To 0.5
At the corridor,
Of the dispute,
Corruption and failure!
Site, mite, white, bite, kite, quite, rite, write, cite;
A widow's mite,
Cleanup,
Of such things,
I have told you before! !
Because,1 divided by 2 equals to 0.5.
Who's who? !
Strife, rife, wife, knife, life;
But, take me along wherever you go!
Fit, hit, bit, sit, merit, grit, wit, whit, kit, pit;
For, there is nothing you can do to correct them! !
But, to c´hange the subject is much needed.
Possible, able, comfortable, table, stable, cable, marble!
But with a lot of progress;
However,1 divided by 2 equals to 0.5! !
And, we need to learn from this dispute.

The Table And The Chair
Said the Table to the Chair,
'You can hardly be aware
How I suffer from the heat,
And from chilblains on my feet!
If we took a little walk,
We might have a little talk!
Pray let us take the air!'
Said the Table to the Chair.
Said the Chair unto the Table,
'Now you know we are not able!
How foolishly you talk,
When you know we cannot walk!'
Said the Table with a sigh,
'It can do no harm to try;
I've as many legs as you;
Why can't we walk on two?'
So they both went slowly down,
And walked about the town
With a cheerful bumpy sound,
As they toddled round and round.
And everybody cried,
As they hastened to their side,
'See! the Table and the Chair
Have come out to take the air!'
But, in going down an alley
To a castle in the valley,
They completely lost their way,
And wandered all the day
Till, to see them safely back,
They paid a Ducky-quack,
And a Beetle, and a Mouse,
Who took them to their house.
Then they whispered to each other,
'O delightful little brother!
What a lovely walk we've taken!
Let us dine on Beans and Bacon!'
So the Ducky and the leetle
Browny-Mousy and the Beetle
Dined, and danced upon their heads
Till they toddled to their beds.

"Ole" Baugh Road
Round Ole Baugh Road its a great place kids to grow
Some grow up and move away
Most of us decide to stay
Round the oleBaugh Road
Hard working mom and dad
Gve us things that they never had
I our corner of the world
Romance is slow for the boys and girls
Round the ole Baugh Road
The neighborhood still looks the same
just new kids with the same old names
My Baugh Roads in a southern state
Yours may be anywhere, USA
Look around ole Baugh Road.
I see the kids on Ole Baugh Road
I see the glory of the future glow
Look to the Heavens and give a shout
Like my daddy did when he started out.
Round, round, round the ole Baugh Road,
Round, round, round,
Round, round, round
Round, round, round,
The OleBaugh Road
Round, round, round,
Round, round, round...

A Place At His Table
Almighty God Loves All His Children
He leaves no one hungry nor in the cold
All have a place to sit ‘round His Table
As it is not in His Nature to withhold

Whos coming back for more

Weve been through this so many a-times

Goin round and round

Still takin all the heat
Goin round and round

Whose memory you still keepin

Whos talkin in your sleep

Knew you when you werent so nice
Goin round and round

Goin round and round

Still takin all the heat
Goin round and round
(round and round)
Never touchin down
Im not the one
That youll be breakin in
And Im not the one
That youll be takin in

Tried and tried to crack the shell

When you fake its hard to tell
Goin round and round

Still takin all the heat
Goin round and round

Portrait Of An Old Woman On The College Tavern Wall
Oh down at the tavern
the children are singing
around their round table
and around me still.
Did you hear what it said?
I only said
how there is a pewter urn
pinned to the tavern wall,
as old as old is able
to be and be there still.
I said, the poets are tere
I hear them singing and lying
around their round table
and around me still.
Across the room is a wreath
made of a corpse's hair,
framed in glass on the wall,
as old as old is able
to be and be remembered still.
Did you hear what it said?
I only said
how I want to be there and I
would sing my songs with the liars
and my lies with all the singers.
And I would, and I would but
it's my hair in the hair wreath,
my cup pinned to the tavern wall,
my dusty face they sing beneath.
Poets are sitting in my kitchen.
Why do these poets lie?
Why do children get children and
Did you hear what it said?
I only said
how I want to be there,
Oh, down at the tavern
where the prophets are singing
around their round table
until they are still.

Maths
Maths is fun but can be boring,
You never know when tests are due,
Sometimes hard,
Never know whats coming the next day,
Sometime on the top floor! ! ! !
Theres always Algebra, Numbers, Addition, Sums
Lots of them.
More and more homework everyday,
Either online or written,
Tables set out allover the place,
Table by table,
Sat alphabetically.
Numbers allover the place,
Loads of them! ! !

Some-of-it Is Something
A liquid melts so slowly that tomorrow arrives by the adventure. This meaningful pity sounds doubly clear. The something we ourselves admire adheres to our work. Our employable brain is taxed, by the thoughts in religion. The table has been just born. The round-table is an earning point.

My first date- judgement day of a lady
Lying on my bed,
looking at the mocking ceiling,
sinking in thoughts
Why must I do this?
Why shouldn't it be the other way round?
But I know someone had to make the move
I swiftly moved to my round table
My palms, sweaty
My shoulders high and fragile
My heart thumping
He'll be here any minute
And I have to say what I have to say
And do what I have to do
The next minute, I'm on my feet
Pacing the floor timidly
My back pack in it's right place
Was I going to speak first again?
My face was hot like coal,
red with blood,
glowing like burning magnesium
Now I've got to know how to start
Or I'll just fade away
I hope he'll arrive late
So I can practice better...
There's a knock on the door
BLANK!

Higher Place
So I think I got it all in place now
No distractions under control
Yet theres something missing inside me
Im chasing shadows of myself
And the clocks are ticking
Oh my world is spinning
Spinning round and round
And round and round again
And I try
I try to reason why
Dont you know I cant go on this way
Baby please dont walk away there is this place
Where I toss away my pride
So you can see that Im the one
To take you to a higher place this time
I am on the outside looking in
To a place where I will be
Let me give you what you need from me
I surrender my soul to you
And my heart is pounding
And a fires burning
And my head is spinning, round and round again
And I try
I try to reason why
Dont you know I cant go on this way
Baby please dont walk away there is this place
Where I toss away my pride
So you can see that Im the one
To take you to a higher place this time
Oh, I crash... and burn inside my mind
It happens time and time again, I cant explain the way you make me feel
Oh,
I know... I dont have much to give
But what I have I give to you with all the madness left inside of me
With the madness left inside of me... oh
And I try
I try to reason why
Dont you know I cant go on this way
Baby please dont walk away there is this place
Where I toss away my pride
So you can see that Im the one
To take you to a higher place this time

Dancin round & round
(adam mitchell)
Im gonna go out tonight
Gonna feel alright
If it tears me right in two
cause I just cant stay feeling this way
With a heart thats full of you
Im gonna go right down
To a part of town
Where Ive never been before
And in some small place
Find a brand new face
And step out on the floor
And Ill be dancing round and round
And Ill be satisfied if I can just hold my ground
And if he helps me to keep your memory down
Ill be dancing round and round
Well you put some distance round you
I know I meant to see
Theres a space inside for someone
But I know it isnt me
So among the boys who are searching
And the girls who hope theyre found
If you look for me, Im the one youll see
Whos dancing round and round
And Ill be dancing round and round
And Ill be satisfied if I can just hold my ground
And if he helps me to keep your memory down
Ill be dancing round and round
Come on music, wash my tears away
Come on darkness, cover up the day
Dancing round and round
And Ill be satisfied if I can just hold my ground
And if he helps me to keep your memory down
Ill be dancing round and round
Ill be dancing round and round

Brave Men! ! ! !
I like brave men
those who goes to war
and finally returned
share with us your visions
I like angry men
that dispute your honour and bravery
in a table of bar
sharing with us your strength
I like drunk men
that spit their stories and say obscene language
with your friends
sharing with us yours laughts
I like human men
that give all time
the best and the worst
and seal our hearts with a long kiss!

Here We Go Again
Here we go again,
Here we go again and again,
Wondrin how it all began,
Wondrin will it ever end.
Round and round we go,
Where its going, nobody knows.
Though I know weve been this place before,
Someone keeps on moving the door.
Here we go agai-ai-ai-ain,
Here we go agai-ain.
Here we go agai-ai-ai-ain,
Here we go agai-ain.
So I say hello again,
And nobody gives a damn,
And nobody wants to hold your hand,
Evryone is an also-ran.
Round and round we go,
Where its going, nobody knows.
Though I know weve seen this place before,
Someone keeps on moving the door.
Here we go agai-ai-ai-ain,
Here we go agai-ain.
Here we go agai-ai-ai-ain,
Here we go agai-ain.
Round and round we go-oh-oh-oh,
Round and round we go-oh.
Here we go agai-ai-ai-ain,
Here we go agai-ain.

Foolin
You let me follow you around
It helped your status in the town
Well I didnt know your name
Theres no truth in what you claim
So I think you better stop this foolin round
I think its called a lesson learned
When one so close suddenly turns
Leaves you standing on your own
Got no place to call your home
So I think you better stop this foolin round
Now its my time to make amends
Hope my message dont offend
And I hope this doesnt drive you round the bend
Leaves you standing on your own
Got no place to call your home
So I think you better stop this foolin round
Yes, I think you better stop this foolin round
Yes, I think you better stop this foolin round
