There Has to Be 'Something' Left to Salvage
There has to be 'something' left to salvage.
Something with a footstep placed,
And taken towards integrity.
Something with a fingerprint on it...
That says with uncertain proof,
He even knows what that means.
Something besides lies and deceit done.
And a legacy that will state...
He saved the land from terrorists that would come.
Or came and claimed to have stunned.
There has to be 'something' left to salvage.
Something with a footstep placed,
And taken towards integrity!
He and his followers would like to see,
Him vindicated...
For making decisions that will lift his name up...
And away from the gutter from a greed satiated.
There has got to be something,
Other than corruption and smut!
Smothered and dipped in utter ignorance.
And an ending of a greatness one country 'had'..
He and incompetence has left in rags!
Since he and what he has created...
Leaves a democracy in devastation.
And one sad man who secretly grieves.
There has to be 'something' left to salvage.
Something other than a directed bitterness...
Shown with an openness.
And criticizes a failed leadership.
That would be difficult to disguise,
For those who witnessed it...
And despise.
To leave it and him unscathed.
What in the days and years ahead can be said?
Many are left sickened.
More are left dead!
And those who are wounded...
Will never know a peace to come,
In their heads!
And he will leave behind much to grieve.
Whether he belives what he did was 'just' or not!
He was not of the justice frame of mind kind!

If you have a setback, and you're not doing well and then you overcome it somehow, it always sticks with you. You know it could happen again.

Anytime you suffer a setback or disappointment, put your head down and plow ahead.
We suffered a setback and there were too many trades until Dave Taylor came along and Charlie Simmer.

I knew that I did not have to buy into society's notion that I had to be handsome and healthy to be happy. I was in charge of my ""spaceship"" and it was my up, my down. I could choose to see this situation as a setback or as a starting point. I chose to begin life again.

Guilt
Rudderless
He left me
In the sea
Now
When
I've drowned
He wonders
How to
Salvage me
Squirming
With the
Guilt -
Of having
Wrecked me

Fading Away
I am fading away
To a place faraway
Where there will be no end
There will be no death
Just joy day and night
If I am right
Here is where I'd be
I see it in my dreams
But you are changing me
The world is pulling me
This is my one setback
Social vices dragging me back
How do I survive this
If you are not here
To help me
Let us fade away for eternity
This is my number one priority
A new world
A changed world.

Man can and must prevent the tragedy of famine in the future instead of merely trying with pious regret to salvage the human wreckage of the famine, as he has so often done in the past.

As a privileged survivor of the First World War, I hope I may be allowed to interject here a deeply felt tribute to those who were not fortunate enough to succeed, but who shared the signal honor of trying to the last to salvage peace.

Walk Away (Maybe)
I made this bed
I choose to lie in it
And live with my regrets
And sleep with what I said
Could this be the end
Am I standing on the edge
Of everything I wanted now
I was afraid
I was afraid
Well maybe I'm just scared
To face the things I fear
It's easier to walk away from everything
Separate my soul
With all the things we shared
I'm falling to pieces now
Say a prayer for me (say a prayer for me)
When you go to bed ('cause)
I'm in need of your faith now
I was afraid
Well maybe I'm just scared
To face the things I fear
It's easier to walk away from everything
If we could just re-set
And live in happiness
Instead of our regrets
We'd salvage everything
We don't have to walk away
Pray for me now
I'm in need of faith
Pray for me now
I'm in need
And maybe I'm just scared
To face the things I feared
It's easier to walk away from everything
If we could just re-set
And live in happiness
Instead of our regrets
We'd salvage everything
And maybe I'm just scared
To face the things I failed
It's easier to walk away from everything
Walk away from everything
Walk away from everything

The Indians Riven into Castes
A salvage team has pulled the beached ship
off the coast to sail 'way with fillip.
But who can tow these crowds
off the castes draped in shrouds?
To stone age, the youths 'gain make a trip.

We salvage everything
We don't have to walk away

The real cure for our environmental problems is to understand that our job is to salvage Mother Nature. We are facing a formidable enemy in this field. It is the hunters... and to convince them to leave their guns on the wall is going to be very difficult.

Worthless as friend
I was unable to decide whether to smile or not
For unexpected setback over which I had not thought
It happens sometimes in life and we got to swallow
Even if not disliked yet to welcome and allow
It can be anything including love failure
Each moment reminds us of how unsure it is
Nothing goes as per our wish and gives joy
Still we go by fate and try to forget and enjoy
Life can’t be brought at stand still
As nothing may happen as per our will
There is almighty to take care of everything
Only we have to put efforts for little or something
Sometimes we have to ignore the facts
It can not help even if we cry or react
It may happen and cause us the worry
As human being we have to smile and feel only sorry
The helplessness is not something of our doing
You may have nothing even if done all kinds of wooing
The result may come at an appointed hour
You must take it for granted and never feel sour
“I am breaking of relation”
She entered room and blasted with indignation
I just looked at her face and wondered at her outburst
She was in real pain over confused definition of trust
I could have gone straight and consoled her
It was giving her tremendous hurt and led to bother
I had no morale courage and explain the truth
She was not utterly wrong but not true either
How could take her for granted as companion?
I had very much wanted bond with union
I was utter failure in life with no success
It was difficult for me to give her access
I denied her entry plainly on one reason
I was not sure of future and stable person
Something might have caused her mental breakdown
I preferred her to cause little setback and go down
It worked and she came with hurricane speed
She was given to understand with perfect feed
I was useless and stood for no promises
She got raged and blamed me for all the misses
Internally I had all the pride to satisfy
Only regret I had that I could not pacify
She was all for me till the end
Only I could prove worthless as friend

Guerilla sunset
March in the lines
March across the stones
The tombstone dance.
Courage, the Mother of War
Horror blood and gore
Salvage, the sinking ship
А Crownless К ing’s whip.

Hard As Stone
the setback with
this racial thing
is too many men try
to have a hand in it
and most try to get
the upper hand
it always feels nice
to be at the side
that makes you feel
good though not
necessarily right
a stone can be used
for so many metaphors
like a character solid
as a stone or
a head cold and
unfeeling as a stone
many choose to be the latter
if we have more men with
characters hard and beautiful
as stones, diamonds, rubies
