Soda Spot King

sift through the wind

set of course as the Albatross tread

look at the mountains breathless

the sign in the field evokes fear

try to stop the parting tear

all hellos sport a hello or goodbye

clever notion of a soft reply

 

the wind blows freely upon my face

to behold the nectar smile

the smile of a child

mistakenly kind

 

the soda spot king

let freedom ring

the passing value

a challenge to be free

 

burgers and briefs

withstand a brand new leak

the refrigeration wears skin briefs

shallow from each parting eyes

 

down by the river

I stand as a forgiver

lay low on the acid

shattered dreams captured

 

love to share through a nursery rhyme

to barricade the mass beholder

just call me late for dinner

Jerry Garcia and an ace in the hole

 

take you to far off places you need to go

its a hunt between goodness and by

a shortness o breath

trapped through meadows that give hold of its meaning

 

Barren in fragrance the toast within

hearken on its rush

to parade again with its mockery

I exist as a vapor then I am no more
