“take what you need and leave the rest, but they never should have taken the very best”
-taken from THE NIGHT THEY DROVE OLD DIXIE DOWN by the band
some say this country’s greatness
was born in the fires of the war
btwn the states………………………….
I say that perhaps, our greatest were taken
From us:
By a tyrannical government,
by the forces of evil,
& because of this fact-our modern nation
was a still birth…...............................
......that miracously lived......................
.........................and lurched forth...and was
then-
furthered and propogated by
offspring of the war btwn the states who were
not “our very best”

“Advice to my nephew on his 1st birthday”
10-10-09
[some lines are original creations of the author, some lines taken directly from F. Wake and some lines are altered lines from F. Wake]
life, he himself said once, is awake,
livit or kick it – a phrase which the
establisher of the world – said his
p’s and mind mined his Q’s by…
crypticly through the windowdisks and with
eddying waves, the round eyes – at the
first crack of thunder – awoke the pair
headed Arden…
I call our universe to witness – any dog’s
Life you list & - the abundant mercy of
Him which Thundereth on High – Chuffy
Was an Angel whose soared flesh Lighted Like Likeing…
And how to say – it is what is – what
Is that O’ Holy Troopers – the whole
Thingamabob – including the portions of glee
Glue green; for up you stumble – for with glee
You guess - 4 with search you fling – over the wiles
Of the Willy – Wooly - & Woolfy…
