Sardines And Bread

The executive director was obsessed with sanitary conditions. Initiation was informative and delivered with confidence. All the forms were signed by the leaders. Time for a game of blackjack. The Vegas queen played them slots and dice. Dealer rolled low cards on the bottom of the deck. Sweet tennis Tanya ain't no old maid. Tootsie will make your day with a full face smile. But keep your thoughts to yourself. This is a money game. We need a caller. Next time I'll bring a stack of cash. No mercy for bettors. Want the glory without the work. High expectations and annoyances. Yank on that hair good. Tie it up in a knot. Stack the tower up as high as it will go. Someone will knock it down. Pass the time. The young get older. I'd have dinner with Jesus if I could. Ask him about feeding everybody with sardines and bread. Back to the hill for a hose down. Style basketball and poor shooters. Exit on the kings highway. One way streets and four ways. Take a...

Nothing To Lose

D7 CG D7 CD7G Hooray for the signs in the sky. Looking up is the best thing to do. When we gonna make it right. Ain't got nothing to prove. Pull my heart apart and look inside. Do with it whatever you choose. This place is full of dirty bribes. Ain't got nothing to lose. Don't change the way you are She got style and popping moves. Don't wander very far. Ain't got nothing but truth. Jumping fast outta the gate. Running fast and running free. Still got the future to waste. Ain't got nothing do. Ain't got nothing to lose. Ain't got nothing to lose. Ain't got nothing to lose.

Pull An Ace

EmAmDEm We could think and think for days and days. Count the stars and whistle a fine melody. Brave the winds and bring nature down. Slander the ones that preach love in vain. We could whine with the hounds and babes. Jump to a jazz jam and sway left to right. Learn a new step with a twist in the middle. Plan a car trip on the west coast highway. We could scatter all the cards and pull an ace. Rub the belly of a genie til the smoke rises. Find a nickel tails up and put it in your pocket. Eat meat every 7th day and call out for mercy.

King James Again

         After being forced out of KOtC3 due to a back injury suffered in a 30 game prep mahut, it was tough to attend the event.  Play had already started in the morning rounds when I literally crawled out of my car.  I scooted carefully over the where Keck and the young college player, Dayton, were in the middle of a close mahut that would eventually end 6-4 Keck, propelling him to the afternoon king division and sure destruction.  Originally, he was looking forward to getting in the duke division.  The life of a duke is good.  Days and days of leisure and sport, without all the responsibilities of the king or even the prince.  The duke's life.  No such reality for Keck this tournament.  When Mabe roddicked it was evident.  Beating a college player and representing in the king division are both tremendous achievements.  All the while administering the entire event.  Talking with Dayton later, he was impre...

Spasmodic Poet

No concern or care. The writings continue. Despite the contractions. Spasmodic poet. Pain will move around. Ignoring the obvious. Relationships left to dry. Spasmodic musician. Hound those same chords. Fall into the strumming and melody. Sing about situations. Spasmodic man. Peculiar and conflicted. Acts 4:22 hope. The back attacks. Spasmodic mind. Alternate thoughts. Pure and sane. Questioning and validating always.

King Of The Court 3

     To think King of the Court is only a week away.  Took some time between salt baths and various massage therapies to consider the initial draw this morning.  Right off I noticed the competition committee created a Royal Group, consisting of the Royal Court of KOtC2.  King The Todd has been spotted recently in Hawaii, The Four Seasons Resort in Irving, and the Mellow Mushroom in Downtown McKinney.  If his recent shoulder surgery, or life in general, was bothering him, he sure didn’t show it.  He looks confident.  At all times, regardless of task or perceptions of others.  He lives a different life, above all.  It is an honor to hang with him when given the chance.  He had people following him, but they all kept their distance.  I figured they worked for him.  They bring him beers and complement his attire.  He acknowledges, then waives them away.  He does this all without seeming rude.  It is ama...
