So I Dream

Politicians rarely do what is needful, only if expedient They are all so greedful, with more than can be spent See them stand there sincerely, butter wouldn’t melt Hearts frozen, all ice and stone, so nothing’s ever felt Any cause moves them if it will win them an election Convince you they‘ll more than help, […]

Story Arc

In time, I will surely find my place In my place, I will surely find the time Human existence no longer a contest or race Let’s discard the fears of youth for a new paradigm

We Will Tell You

Join the revolution, turn and turn and turn Around, follow the sound, watch the birdie Which direction looks right; watch, learn Bet it all on just one card, down and dirty Watch all the ads and pay strict attention Get in the line now and march to the beat With the explosions, fast cuts, pretension […]

Serial Tuesday ~ Toliver
