3a

there are things that
do not last, wood,
what with termites,
and metal, what with
the salt and the
sea that gives us
more memories,
yes, memories too
same thing with love
unrequited, pain, same
manner with temporary
joys, success, same thing
with failures....
ah, nothing lasts forever,
something that still comes
may outlast
us...

Postage Due

The future will outlast
us all, but it is to
our present and our past
that postage must be due.
In the future which
we make we may hope we
will live on, but our niche
is now, unfranked and free.


Ted Kennedy once said: 'We know the future will outlast all of us, but I believe that all of us will live on in the future we make.' When he was born, President Herbert Hoover sent Rose a bouquet of flowers and a note of congratulations. The note came with a 5 cents postage due; the framed envelope is a family heirloom (John M. Broder, NYT, August 27,2009) .

Our Lawyer Made Us Change The Name Of This Song So We Wouldn't Get Sued

Brothers and sisters put this record down
Take my advice ('cause we are bad news)
We will leave you high and dry
It's not worth the hearing you'll lose
It's just past 8 and I'm feeling young and reckless
The ribbon on my wrist says, "Do not open before Christmas."
We're only liars, but we're the best (we're the best)
We're only good for the latest trends
We're only good cause you can have almost famous friends
Besides, we've got such good fashion sense
Brothers and sisters, yeah, put these words down
Into your notebook (spit lines like these)
We're friends when you're on your knees
Make them dance like we were shooting their feet
It's just past 8 and I'm feeling young and reckless
The ribbon on my wrist says, "Do not open before Christmas."
We're only liars, but we're the best (we're the best)
We're only good for the latest trends
We're only good cause you can have almost famous friends
Besides, we've got such good fashion sense
We're only liars, but we're the best
We're only good for the latest trends
We're only liars, but we're the best
We're only good for the latest trends
We're only good cause you can have almost famous friends
Besides, we've got such good fashion sense

Lay It Down

For too long it tortured me
You see
The guilty
Is free

For too long I carried it around
And found
Was astounded
By the sound

Of breathing a sigh of relief
No grief
The thief
Made disbelief

The hallmark of my shame
And blame
The game
Always remained

But I laid down my guilt and walked away
That day
I prayed
Then stayed

Gone from the burden of the hurt
To assert
Now alert
This convert

Letting go of the guilt and pride
Held inside
Free ride
He died

To save me from the past
To everlast
Life recast
To outlast

To outlast the guilt and pride and shame and hurt which I laid down so He could take it away

I hate work so

I hate work so
That I have found a way
Of making one small task outlast the day.
I will not leave
The garden and the sun,
In spite of all the work that should be done.
So when I go
To really make my bed
I've made it ten times over in my head.
Then as for meals!
I think I'd rather be
A nervous wreck than make a cup of tea.
The fire's so low
It isn't any good—
While I sit planning to put on some wood.
One thing is sure,
I pity other drones,
God having made me such a lazy-bones.

Friends (A tribute to my friends)

Vivifying with Intensity
Flouting the apathy
Causing sadnes to undermine
They're just earthly beings, not divine
Understanding your curiosity
Ending this mystery
Encompassing all my life's spheres
Innovating new trends
They're my wonderful friends

Love & only love is their ardor
Discrimination & hatred created borders
Emotions & feelings attain salvation
Togetherness is their denomination
At times parents, at times teachers
Imbibed with everyone's features
Enriched with verve, innovating new trends
Oh they are my wonderful friends

Enthusiasm beaming with pride
Welcome sheer happiness,
Sadness no more its bride
Smiles have no place to hide
Life pleading to caress
Wishes emerging from duress
Giving every moment a kiss
Innovating new trends
They are just my wonderful friends

Our deeds decide heaven or hell
Only foolish buy it & sell
God created one for me
Nesting on the friendship tree
Pranks, teasers, slangs (etc) come free
Elation and alliance enrich its beauty
I can even give heaven a miss
To reside in my Friends' eternal bliss
