Pariah Posted December 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2016 This year has been a little crazy for the Andersons You may recall we had some trouble last year The robot council had us banished to an asteroid That hasn't undermined our holiday cheer And we know it's almost Christmas By the marks we make on the wall That's our favorite time of year Merry Christmas from Chiron Beta Prime Where we're working in a mine for our robot overlords Did I say overlords?

Greywind Posted December 8, 2016 Report Share Posted December 8, 2016 I remember Daddy´s hands, folded silently in prayer.And reaching out to hold me, when I had a nightmare.You could read quite a story, in the callouses and lines.Years of work and worry had left their mark behind.I remember Daddy´s hands, how they held my Mama tight,And patted my back, for something done right.There are things that I´ve forgotten, that I loved about the man,But I´ll always remember the love in Daddy´s hands.Daddy's hands were soft and kind when I was cryin´.Daddy´s hands, were hard as steel when I´d done wrong.Daddy´s hands, weren´t always gentleBut I´ve come to understand.There was always love in Daddy´s hands.I remember Daddy´s hands, working 'til they bled.Sacrificed unselfishly, just to keep us all fed.If I could do things over, I´d live my life again.And never take for granted the love in Daddy´s hands.Daddy's hands were soft and kind when I was cryin´.Daddy´s hands, were hard as steel when I´d done wrong.Daddy´s hands, weren´t always gentleBut I´ve come to understand.There was always love in Daddy´s hands.Daddy's hands were soft and kind when I was cryin´.Daddy´s hands, were hard as steel when I´d done wrong.Daddy´s hands, weren´t always gentleBut I´ve come to understand.There was always love .....In Daddy´s hands.

Cygnia Posted December 11, 2016 Report Share Posted December 11, 2016 When they turn the pages of historyWhen these days have passed long agoWill they read of us with sadnessFor the seeds that we let grow?We turned our gazeFrom the castles in the distanceEyes cast downOn the path of least resistance Cities full of hatredFear and liesWithered heartsAnd cruel, tormented eyesScheming demonsDressed in kingly guiseBeating down the multitudeAnd scoffing at the wise The hypocrites are slanderingThe sacred halls of truthAncient nobles showeringTheir bitterness on youthCan't we findThe minds that made us strong?Oh can't we learnTo feel what's right and what's wrong? What's wrong Cities full of hatredFear and liesWithered heartsAnd cruel, tormented eyesScheming demonsDressed in kingly guiseBeating down the multitudeAnd scoffing at the wiseWhoa can't we raise our eyesAnd make a start?Can't we find the mindsTo lead us closer to the heart?

Ternaugh Posted December 11, 2016 Report Share Posted December 11, 2016 Is there no sign of light as we stand here in the darkness?Watching the sun ariseIs there no sign of life as we gaze at the waters?Into the strangers eyesAnd who are we to criticize or scorn the things that they do?For we shall seek and we shall find Ammonia AvenueIf we call for the proof and we question the answersOnly the doubt will growAre we blind to the truth or a sign to believe in?Only the wise will knowAnd word by word they handed down the light that shines todayAnd those who came at first to scoff, remained behind to prayAnd those who came at first to scoff, remained behind to prayWhen you can't hear the rhyme and you can't see the reasonWhy should the hope remain?For a man will be tired and his soul will grow wearyLiving his life in vainAnd who are we to justify the right in all we do?Until we seek until we find Ammonia AvenueThrough all the doubt somehow they knewAnd stone by stone they built it highUntil the sun broke throughA ray of hope, a shining light Ammonia Avenue Pariah 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Hopcroft Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 Another obituary in the paper today, One more for the list of those who've already fallen. Another one of our comrades is taken down, Like so many others of our calling. We tweet our anecdotes, our commentary, Or we sing his songs in some sad tribute, While the tabloids are holding a story of kiss and tell, That he's no longer able to deny or refute. 50,000 voices rising every time he'd sing, And every word he ever wrote reflecting back to him. How well I remember the stadiums we played, And the lights sweeping across a sea of 50,000 souls we'd face. A serious drug that you could never kick, Or one that you couldn't imagine you'd ever replace. We flew like kites on the wings of amphetamine, Secured only to a bass line and a snare drum beat. But really what did any of it mean? When there's a higher philosophy in reflection and defeat. 50,000 voices rising every time he'd sing, And every word he ever wrote reflecting back to him. Still believing that old lie, the one that your own face betrays, Rock Stars don't ever die, they only fade away. Reflecting now on my own past, Inside this prison I've made of myself. I'm feeling a little better today, Although the bathroom mirror is telling me something else. These lines of stress, one bloodshot eye, The unhealthy pallor of a troubled ghost. Where did I put my spectacle case? I'm half blind and as deaf as any post. 50,000 hands are raised to a man that's just like you and me. We create the gods we can and gift them immortality. Still believing that old lie, the one that your own face betrays, Rock Stars don't ever die, they only fade away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sundog Posted December 14, 2016 Report Share Posted December 14, 2016 See the curtains hangin' in the window, in the evenin' on a Friday night.A little light a-shinin' through the window, lets me know everything is alright.Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind.Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind.See the paper layin' in the sidewalk, a little music from the house next door.So I walked on up to the doorstep, through the screen and across the floor.Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind.Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind.Sweet days of summer, the jasmine's in bloom. July is dressed up and playing her tune.And I come home from a hard day's work, and you're waiting there, not a care in the world.See the smile a-waitin' in the kitchen, food cookin' and the plates for two.See the arms that reach out to hold me, in the evening when the day is through.Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind.Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind.

death tribble Posted December 14, 2016 Report Share Posted December 14, 2016 It was the third of June, another sleepy, dusty Delta day I was out choppin' cotton and my brother was balin' hay And at dinner time we stopped and walked back to the house to eat And Mama hollered out the back door, "Y'all remember to wipe your feet" And then she said, "I got some news this mornin' from Choctaw Ridge Today Billie Joe MacAllister jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge" And Papa said to Mama as he passed around the black-eyed peas "Well, Billie Joe never had a lick of sense. Pass the biscuits, please There's five more acres in the lower forty I've got to plow" And Mama said it was a shame about Billie Joe, anyhow Seems like nothin' ever comes to no good up on Choctaw Ridge And now Billie Joe MacAllister's jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge And brother said he recollected when he and Tom and Billie Joe He put a frog down my back at the Carroll County picture show And wasn't I talkin' to him after church last Sunday night? "I'll have another piece of apple pie. You know, it don't seem right I saw him at the sawmill yesterday on Choctaw Ridge And now you tell me Billie Joe's jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge" Mama said to me, "Child, what's happened to your appetite? I've been cookin' all morning and you haven't touched a single bite That nice young preacher, Brother Taylor, dropped by today Said he'd be pleased to have dinner on Sunday. Oh, by the way He said he saw a girl that looked a lot like you up on Choctaw Ridge And she and Billie Joe was throwing somethin' off the Tallahatchie Bridge" A year has come 'n' gone since we heard the news 'bout Billie Joe And brother married Becky Thompson, they bought a store in Tupelo There was a virus going 'round, Papa caught it and he died last Spring And now Mama doesn't seem to wanna do much of anything And me, I spend a lot of time pickin' flowers up on Choctaw Ridge And drop them into the muddy water off the Tallahatchie Bridge Burrito Boy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
