Flower Garden 7/29/2008

Sitting in her flower garden
Away from everything mundane
Pansies at my feet
Plum tomatoes at my teeth
I try to look out
But the sun glare blocks my view
I can not see her
But I know she is close by
I feel the warmth of her
As she sneaks up behind me
To hug me tight and kiss my face
Sitting in her flower garden
Away from everything mundane
This is my favorite part of day
This is the only way

The 'word' of David Martin

Good bye

Alive 7/25/2008

I need you here
Here next to me

To wait
To wait with us
For the new birth
The birth of our child
Yea it will be wild
She or He just hours free
In your arms 80 years young
Breathing strong
Breathing the same air
Showing no fear
No fear of life
No fear of death
I need you here
Here next to me
With Me
With We
For She or He
Whomever they shall be
Just Healthy
Our little baby
I can't wait!
So don't you be late!
(A note to my Mother)

Sudden Halt 7/25/2008

Sitting in the ER
You do not have to go far
To get a glimpse of brutal reality
It is a perpetuality
They come in by the bunch
Some crouched in a hunch
In the fetal position
Caused from an accidental situation
Some all alone
Some with their other
Many on their cell-phone
We all become each others sister and brother
Though we may never speak to one another
Why even bother
When body language speaks a zillion dialects
Sitting in the ER there is the most respect
I sit there with my Mother
Of course there in no other
I am there because I care
I try to erase all my fear
The waiting is the hardest part
But it is just the start
The start towards the end
The end never seems to come
Then one day it sneaks up behind
And gives you that life shattering grind
That Grind to a halt
Ah was it my own fault
We will never really know
For "HE" never shows
Trick 'em all and keep on that GLOW
Right till that life shattering grind
That Grind to a sudden halt!

Give Life 7/23/2008

Two hands
Two legs
Two eyes
Two ears
Not a big head
Maybe not red either
Ok healthy
Alert
Screaming
Crying is good
Warm and cuddly
Cute
Real
Oh how I will feel
Feel alive
Giving life
With my Wife
What else
Nothing else
Why live
If you don't give
Give life
Give yourself
Give Love
Give Life

I Pass 7/23/2008

I must write
Or am I wrong
For something I long
Is this alright
Into a daze
I have fought
Covered in haze
What do I got
But a shot in the skull
I have fallen like a gull
Right out of the sky
As if hit with a silent slug
Oh me oh my
Help me tighten up my lugs
So I can drive straight out of here
To you I swear
It as all your fault
You unlocked the vault
The vault of the sick
So make it quick
Release the death gas
This is sick
I am done
I pass!

Scroll-Roll-Poll 7/18/2008

Upon this scroll
I shall roll
A ballpoint pen
Then I count to ten
An' say it is really my fingers
That do linger
Across the keyboard
To type these silly words
Like a slow sword
...OK...?!
Upon this roll
I shall take a poll
Are you reading
What I am secreting
From my brain
I am not insane
I guess maybe vain
Ya YOU?
Take off on the next train
...Huh...!?
See them flowers
They give certain powers
Ones you'll never know
'Cause your heart does not glow
You don't put your hands in dirt
Ah go put on your skirt
For you are embarrassing me
Do you stand or sit when you pee
...what...?!

(You can't figure it out!)

Feelin' Fine!

Wednesday
Feelin' fine!
Across the line
Hump day as they say
Huh, well that was last night
Yea millions took flight
Now time will tell
Did one win an' ring her "bell"
Who knows
I hope she soon "glows"
Eatin' very healthy
Keepin' our insides wealthy
Knowing the right times
Oh how it all rhymes
But isn't that what it's all about
A big round-a-bout
Tryin' to keep a level
Stayin' away from the devil
Gotta stay persistent
Yes like consistent
Gotta stay feelin' fine!
This is our daily rhyme
Wednesday
Feelin' fine!

Hey Baby Can You See The Light? 7/10/2008

I met her on the corner of....
Highland and Temple Avenue's
In a small Winthrop town
Yea I got her as I acted like a clown
She was surely something quite new
Now She's got all of my heart
You could never ever tear it apart
Ten years later rooted real deep
True love is what we have and do reap
She is the love of my life
In 2005 I made her my beautiful wife
So now the time is just right
We will try to give a young one some light
Two gods we shall be
Living by the ocean, free
She's got all of my heart
Yea yea yea
She's got all of my heart
She's got all of my heart
Yea yea yea
We hope to give a young one some light
We know the time is right
Yea yea yea
The time is right
Hey baby can you see the light?
Hey baby can you see the light?

Ahhhhh 7/9/2008

As for money I make the same
Yet all the costs go up
This year they all went up quite high
Ah shut up
Ain't it a shame
How will we get by
There is something wrong
Give them all a gong
Like their stupid greedy ways
And that government daze
They brought upon us this craze
They try to save the world
Yet they can't even save themselves
Better batten down the hatches
Stitch up your wounds with stitches
Start a new from the beginning
Then "maybe" you'll be winning
Remember : Charity begins at home
So then why do your people all feel alone?

Strummer In The CD Player 7/1/2008

I can see him
Driving slow in an old old car
The early morning sunshine
Gleaming through the front window
A mellow glow on his face
No need to race
It is nearly summer
I brought out Strummer
He plays in the CD player
As I was driving to work
On Revere beach
Listen to his voice
Listen to his words
They can surely teach
It is far from preaching
They cut deep like a sword
Yea yea lets rejoice
Like when it is mid winter
Ya surely do miss the summer
Like when ya hear his voice
For the first time in a while
Ya surely do miss Strummer
It's gonna be a good summer
I am bringing out all of Strummer
I can see him
Driving slow in an old old car
The early morning sunshine
Gleaming through the front window
A mellow glow on his face
No need to race
