Where's the Love?
Every life has its tragedies. Don't let your life become a tragedy.
Don’t go
Hear my cry
River of betrayal and lies
Broken wings
An’ the birds can’t sing
Heart of a thousand icicles
Rolling down memory lane on that ole bicycle
Wrench my hands from my face
Traitor, monster, disgrace
Feel my tears on the brim
Knock, knock, let me in
Bullet of hell in my side
No love in my soul and I shall die
Take heed of the love that you give and take
For one’s heart might tear and break

The Block Mayor
Like every warm day, Terrence is finishing this day on his L-shaped porch, sipping whisky from a dented flask. Cars pass by slowly, and he watches young women pushing babies in strollers; he hears the neighbors’ arguments and knows which have a regular income and those who are unemployed. Terrence is the self-appointed block mayor, laying judgment on his fellow folk.
