~Brother to Brother~

~when I look into your eyes I see~
  ~a rewind/fast-forward reflection~
  ~of two small boys~
  ~standing before the forest of their lives~
  ~breath of wind~
  ~& they are blown~
  ~hand in hand~
  ~into a storm of years~

~there is a flurry~
  ~of fists and lips & angry eyes~
  ~tears, grief & separate joy~
  ~as they pursue individual dreams~
  ~chase money & women~
  ~madness & music~
  ~the mysteries of paths apart~
  ~& alone~

~when the smoke of time clears~
  ~there are two small boys~
  ~wearing the faces~
  ~of the men they have become~
  ~their hands meet~
  ~they embrace~
  ~standing before~
  ~the forest of their lives~
  ~a fresh wind holds them~
  ~whispering~

~blood is not brother~
  ~yet no friend is like~
  ~a brother of the blood~

~Zedidiah strumming his guitar~
~we’re lookin’ into the fire~
~spendin’ time with my kids~
~ah the rewards~
~a new song to add to our war bag~
~a first for my youngest son & me~
~we visit Tommy~
~my oldest son~
~he sprinkles some of his magick~
~we have a first cut result~
~me & my boyz~

~What You Do~

There’s a lion asleep
in the bottom of the well
his secrets died with him
that’s the story they tell
There’s a lone one watching
yeah, the trees have eyes
I confess that
it comes as no surprise
Don’t tell me
don’t tell me
don’t tell me
what you do

We been talkin’ all night
 making love at dawn
  I been voodoo trippin’
you are the drug I’m on
  I almost made it
  past your lies
  but the truth between them
  made the lion die
  Don’t tell me
don’t tell me
don’t tell me
  what you do

You hear the lonely lonely
  it’s the voice, they say
  its echo of madness
  chase the moon away
  yeah, the lonely hearts
  at the wishing well
  toss in a penny
  on the road to hell
  Don’t tell me
  don’t tell me
  don’t tell me
  what you do
