Who has the energy has the power

Who has the energy has the power 
and makes the decision, conserve or devour.

Who has the energy rules whether schools 
produce educated citizens or ignorant fools.

Who has the energy controls Congress 
and who does and does not have access.

Who has the energy gets to pick 
is that or not a law of physics?

Who has the energy for us bequeath 
what children eat, drink, and breathe.

Who has the energy gets to state 
yes or no to a people-friendly climate.

Who has the energy makes the statement, 
whether there's democracy in government.

Who has the energy are whom we adore 
and we make this country of, by, and for.

Who has the energy on this sunny day? 
It's you and I, or that's what I pray.

With only Smeagol as their guide

With only Smeagol as their guide,
two Hobbits, with no steed to ride,
and no army beside,

having left the Shire with no goodbyes,
they dreamt of green meadows and blue skies,
but trudged ahead with few friends but a few who were wise,
day after day, they awoke to desolation and spying eyes.

Their foe was powerful had but one flaw as he lusted for power.
He could not imagine them approaching his tower
not to possess and wield the ring's mighty power
but to restore it to the Earth to devour.

There they stumbled toward Mordor, 
hardly stouter than a flower

only to have Smeagol cheat them all in the end
and get the ring back for he had no other friend.
But then, when all was lost, the story took an odd bend,
for Smeagol finally accomplished what no one else could
and bore that terrible burden to its fiery end.

Wanna Be REMIX

I was on the run
from the blade of the law
until' I got caught and now
awaits the national razor

at Place de la Concorde
where it's ankle deep blood
and the sans culottes all sing out
allons enfants de la patrie
le jour de gloire est arrivé
contre nous de la tyrannie
l'étendard est sanglant est levé
l'étendard est sanglant est levé

I'm pretty sure
they just marked an x on my door
I'd rather flee once more
or gorge the hemlock in mere uncertainty

Lo, I shall be brief
first I have to concede
that, what is worse than death
is this heartfaint hanging in between

through my head plows
recurring thoughts of
my head conjoined in a bundle

and my sweat pours,
from the depth of my core
and that tribunal court
their pliable glares
desperate baked tones
all their faked cheers
fleeced my soul
and away I stumbled

Please send my regards
to Robespierre and the boys
to papa ol' regime
to all discarded hoards
those ceaseless talks of virtue
nature's one cure
can't say that I do
miss them terribly

the one uprightness
I ever knew
was the one I shew
my spouse every night

and you'd better
burn this letter
I'm thinking of your life
not just mine

Send My Regards

Try Anything

rainbow dreams

Remnants of my past
Transcended in dark light
You have rendered real
In my mind and body

My soul is burning
Cause of your manipulative
Behavior and all your spells
In my mind that dwell


You're waving ghosts in my mind
And the worse of me could arise
While you make her suffer
But she doesn't know where it's coming from


Inner self is crumbling
Cause of your black magic
I have to defend myself hard
To avoid the carnage inside

But you will leave my mind eventually
Cause you're not the one for her and you will see
That I won't give up on anything
That you want from me desperately


You're waving ghosts in my mind
And the worse of me could arise
While you make her suffer
But she doesn't know where it's coming from

You're waving ghosts in my mind
And the worse of me could arise
While you make her suffer
But she doesn't know where it's coming from
