Thousand Years

Take yor architecture
nowhere
it stays
for a thousand years
take yor statue
in yor head
where it is
its stayed

Take yor architecture
not
it stays where it plays

For a thousand years
longer
than days

Take yor statue
in yor heart
once it makes you start
that artist did impart
all the art

For a thousand years
for an era
thousand years
its made someone stir

For a thousand years
admiration does occur
for near on an era
thousand years
none of this much alters

Take yor statue
onlooker
with you for a thousand years
its when the art
from heart
occurs
in the moment
momentos
to last a thousand years.

America Believes

Believe believe
you believe
because you are America
you believe
its not standard fashion
science to leave
but we've got vision
we still believe

We love the creation
we give just thanks
whilst scientists
give just blanks
believe believe
America believes
more than any other
I grieve

That they were won over
by the takeover
that they allowed the science
a life spent in clover
moreover
they don't appreciate
creation
don't give the creator
his ovation

Believe believe
America believe
they won the battle
to still believe
you see the athletes
and they still believe
we've won the battle
we still believe
the battle is a peaceful flag
you know we still believe

See the athlets at the games
America believes
we've passed the test
you mite have guessed
America believes
they're the most blessed
America believes.

                                                           at yor great pace
Dust in the dry heat

you fear                                               to less grace
until yo've nothing left                        running barefoot
til yo're bereft                                      was the ace
then left
all this nothingness                             You used to run
behind                                                  when first a school
for some better land                             sprung up in place
to find                                                   now there's space
                                                              to build a school
                                                              in your name
Things fall down                                   you knew how
that you thout were                                to speed a game
for forever                                             and you ran far
because of the                                        from blame

                                                                 You ran
Things fall down                                       into space


til no soundupon the ground
is again found
things fall down
you can't replace
just give up
and flee the place.

Half The City

Half the city
East and West
half the city's
to you the best

Depends on how you view it
depends on how you see
we all have different ways                            Don't arm yorself
of writing up history                                      against a ghost
                                                                       wars never come 
                                                                       what you fear the most 
Half the city's
what you love best                                         A wall mite defend you
one flourished                                                artillery
one under test                                                 you just stop the beautiful
                                                                        snake's head fritillary
Depends on how you regard                          Don't arm yorself
the softer side and things hard                        against what you cannot sea
sometimes it can be better                             it will never happen
to be dealt a firmer yard                                  what you think will be

                                                                        Yo're targeting a foe
Sometimes its the gray skies                           that is yor brother
the help us see the blue                                   and yo're siding
when the sunshine day                                    with another
finaly covers you
                                                                         Don't arm yorself
                                                                          against a ghost
Sometimes its the trial we go thru                    against one
on the harsher day                                             you have in common with
that prepares us for appreciating                       the most
a time to play
                                                                           Yo're letting in an army
                                                                            to keep brothers apart
Half the city                                                        for reconcilliation
half the city                                                         you know that there's an art
depends on which half you know
half the city                                                         Throw away missiles
don't pity the other half                                       let bombs fly away
when you go                                                        stop defending yorself
                                                                             with tanks of gray
Depends on how you see it                                  You say that you are fritened
as to the view you take                                         by what you do not know
half the city's the other half                                  you say that yo're defending yorself
the other's the one you make                                 against a future blow
because the way you see
half the city                                                           Don't arm yorself
you do for yor own sake.                                       against a ghost
                                                                              you don't have to count rockets
                                                                              you don't need to boast
                                                                              both sides anyway
                                                                               would end up as toast.
