Dereliction by Lee Bridges Of course he was a nobody folks could see it For a fact Shoes running down in need of heels, and the Band was off his hat Patched old clothes all crumpling in wrinkles Hanging loose like a dirty sheet And he sure 'nough looks mighty thin, like He could use a bite to eat. But something else about that man, nary a soul Could quite deny The face was reminiscent of a past, human Kind decry And when he wanders into view, heads turn as Though he makes them sick Indeed, it's not difficult determining just Who is derelict. From the autobiography (edited by me) titled 'Me, Two' by Lee Bridges the Cannabis Poet of Amsterdam.
Building bridges I was hurt by some who turned away I needed their help on that day The years went by, and I forgot their name Now they need me, that is a shame I sat and thought would it be right To ignore them in their current plight I cannot treat them as they treated me I am not that way, as they will see I will hold out my hand, and help them soon My heart compels me to make them room Just composed this Candy
The Flag flies in the bright sun As they march down the lane. Red, Orange,Yellow Green. Blue and Purple too. I am not gay I would say But does it really matter anyway ? I feel compelled to walk with them Under the bright sunny day All the children , Sons and daughters Of many families far and near. Sons and daughters I asked Does it really matter who one loves ? Love is love and to share that love is divine.. Who are we to judge that love ? Sons and Daughters far and near, I shall support. And show my love to thee. Weep not For family members who can not see For love is blind As it binds us all together Weep not my children for we are all family here. Just a little something that I decided to throw together just now.
