Never again is now. Hey, man, that must be deep, don’t you see?
Vern Bender
THIS TIME, THE REVOLUTION WILL BE TELEVISED. The far side of tomorrow is closing fast as it moves to the dark side of town.
Peace in the Valley or rumble in some downtown alley. Your time of dying is an early arrival. Teen spirit is wasted on the young. Every season has a reason for being what it is. Heroes don’t always make heroic journeys.
Never again is now. Can I get a witness? God is getting His land back. The Ishmael folks don’t want to leave town. Can I get a witness? Hey, man, that must be deep. The bongos keep exploding in my head. Hey, man, that must be deep, you say? Punching holes in the doors of reality is easier said than done. Breaking on through to the other side of reality is all talk and no action.
Unfamiliar shadows are cast upon the wall by invisible entities of the mind—mirrors of reality from no reality at all. People are basking in ignorance, enjoying the things they do not know.
Girl hanging around the swimming pool looking for a new fool.
Prevailing norms are always a moving target. Time changes everything and everybody. That was then, this is now. Differences can’t always be trusted. People change with the times, sometimes.
Control your responses with courage, endurance, justice, and temperance. Practice goodness all day long, every day. Strive for an untroubled spirit. Beware of what you conform to. Exercise power and restraint over your mind and your emotions. They’ll shoot you down and take your pride away if you only let them. The land is where the river couldn’t go.
America is entering the river of no return.
When civilizations write nothing down, their spoken words can’t keep up. Colonists show up to civilize things; they bring their guns and their religion.
You know the river’s too wide; I can’t jump it. The mountain’s too high; I can’t climb it. I’m stuck in the middle of the great divide.
Mustang Sally is looking for a new ride. Her old pony wouldn’t go no more, so she put the top down and burned that pony to the floor. When Sally leaves, Sally’s gone, get over it.
A preacher from another time and another place talks to all lost people with nowhere to go.
Things are changing both on the left and the right. Some of the changes are right, while others are dead wrong. Free to choose.
