Ryan's Driveway


I was indeed surrounded by self-proclaimed mental giants in ryan's driveway better a fool in the eyes of men than a fool in the eyes of God watching minds descend under the blacktop baited-breath, cigarettes, in the cab of a volkswagen van eight-teen, born again, arguing the origins of man teeth grit, fist clenched, I swing and strike the dashboard how can they be so blind they want to blaspheme my Lord the weakness of God is stronger than the strength of men wisdom is proved right by her children drew a thumbnail sketch of the cross in the window steam from the thumbnail sketch inspiration came

Ecumenical


at what price your belief how will you stand against the devil's schemes for the struggle we face is not against flesh and blood as if that weren't enough was it a cross or a tree what's if matter if it's saturday or sunday for what's more what we share o r what tears us apart etch this creed on your heart: unity in what is essential liberty in nonessentials victims of religion be forewarned when they try to exchange substance for form will you recognize the devils without their horns they're so much harder to see and they do so much harm unity in what is essential liberty in nonessentials and in all things charity

Twain


twain the riverboat genius shipwrecked when he ran into God your case was misrepresented beware when you read letters from the earth your case was presented wrong the pen sam dipped in the ink has since dripped and it's staining everyone who reads it

Soapbox


sand down your soapbox cover every sign of the orthodox spit shined and over hyped gone to bid the good news goodbye where does this whole notion of innocence come from the line between rhetoric and reality has been too blurred something grievous has occurred when the chosen ones are chosen wrong and the favorite sons have come undone renew my dissatisfaction for ideas without traction, sentences without syntax, catch phrases that no longer catch martyrs, mystics, saints, and friends take the narrower of the roads ahead....

Invisible Sun
Sting

I don't want to spend the rest of my life looking at the barrel of an armalite I don't want to spend the rest of my days keeping out of trouble like the soldiers say I don't want to spend my time in hell looking at the walls of a prison cell I don't ever want to play the part of a statistic on a government chart There has to be an invisible sun it gives its heat to everyone there has to be an invisible sun that gives us hope when the whole day's done It's dark all day and it glows all night factory smoke and acetylene light I face the day with my head caved in looking like something that the cat dragged in There has to be an invisible sun it gives its heat to everyone there has to be an invisible sun that gives us hope when the whole day's done And they're only going to change this place by killing everybody in the human race and they would kill me for a cigarette but I don't even want to die just yet There has to be an invisible sun it gives its heat to everyone there has to be an invisible sun that gives us hope when the whole day's done
