keep making the grade work it out and refine always perhaps a sugar boost. play the game to win choose to make the wise choices decide to dominate. continually steer the ship navigate the rough oceans and seas be the calm water. remove the vanity plates the trophies and ribbons and cash spill out your guts.

     The leaders of the succession from America movement, which eventually resulted in the establishment of the Texas nation, which eventually led to the establishment of the Texico nation, were all still involved in Texico society throughout their lifetimes.  Well into his eighties, J. T. Barnes streamed live on the wedia wire.  Although elecrtrical wires by that time were obsolete and the Texican landscapes are all wireless now.  He died in a car wreck near Spur, Texico trying to avoid hitting a jackrabbit.  Details of the incident remain undisclosed by the Barnes family.  Fran Del Corona grew tomotoes and counted his money until he fell on his head trying to walk across an icy sidewalk in Ft. Worth.  He was a hundred and twenty three years old. To this day, most world record opinionators consider him the longest living human ever.  Although how can we really know, especially considering the Old Testament. ...

roof of my mouth was bone daddy dry saw a pair of hawks and had to have some. other night she broke down and cried drank brew in the morning, at night it was rum. plantations and swamps with reptiles went fast through the air of the heavy night. destruction and worry on every mile wished it wasn't me on whom she relied. you trapper, you hound, you cat the young are in heat and prowling around. could never dream of a moment like that misting skies, clean whiffs, and silent sounds. a word whispered in an awakening ear a turn around the tables, chairs, and beds. exhausted and beat by the volunteers extended glance i can't get out of my head. that smirking bastard sits in waiting urges and temptations were the nails in His hands. hummed a song from a poem i was creating we've all been saved and we've all been damned.

out here we laugh out loud for the home folks some of them twisting in the wind tight jeans and raindrops on a metal roof thought the place took plastic but she would only take cash forked over the bills and a few coins almost worthless 'cept for slots wished I'd brought my shades wanna hide my eyes from the truth expressions muted and upper lips stiff lunatics surround the fire pit and a harmonica blows

bleary eyed and done old ones on the tabletop plenty of water

hundreds of dollars were lost given to the house odds were never in our favor yet we still ached for the chance an ounce of suddeness a hope for love slow greetings and cracked smiles lonely boy hours players of all kinds watching from the rafters as the women fought it out in the early morning

always and forever we will try in vain to warn our brothers and sisters. the boogieman is coming to get you. lock the doors and shut the windows. grab a flashlight and ice some beer. get those blankets and pull that crate of water to the side of the house. clear a large area in the middle of the room. boogieman 'bout to boogie. rat-a-tat-tat creates the hush, the man appears in a cloud of dust. white suit with a golden belt, pearly shoes and a hat of felt. all the dancers stopped and stared, the boogieman with his thinning hair. took a step and then flashed a smile, had the look had the style. do the boogieman shake, yeah yeah, do the boogieman shake, uh huh, do the boogieman shake, all right.

....of course everyone would have to agree. motivations would need to be compelling for both entities.  whoever thought we'd be at this place.  one day away from the glory of a new hope for the world.  a place of purity and thoughtfulness.  a place where wolves sleep during the day and get fed at night.  the passing people just kept on walking.  right though the screen doors and paper walls.  the sturdy folks stood there unmoved and resolved.  no one would tell them how to act.  rights were rights.  the bluecoat men thought the texans would fall in line.  the gasps when the letter was delivered.  'mr. president, it's been a really fine 170 years, but today the people of texas declare our independence.  God bless America.'....
