Miserable

She's crying in the car
As she pulls out of the driveway.

He's not happy anymore
But he won't go away.

They're not happy together
But they both stay.

They may not know another way
Nor have the courage to find out.

So they suffer their lives
Working, hoping, praying, for a better day.

Prison Hulk

I signed on the Carole Young.
I was young, dumb, and full of cum.
She looked like a load of fun.
Brand new license, thought I was really on my way!

Oh, how I was wrong!
Listen to my sad song.
Now I'm broke down
And I just want to go home.

I deserve better than this.
Oh, get me out of this shit!
Misery loves company,
We have loads of that here.

How did I stray?
Why did I stay?
What the fuck happened,
Just look at me now!

She's relentless pain and hardship.
An unforgiving heartless
Life sucking bitch
From which there's no escape.

I'm hoping, searching, praying,
For a brighter day.
I'm waiting to be done
With my time on the Carole Young.

Billy's Lillies

Billy is a ghost.
But the canna lillies
I transplanted from
His yard,
The summer he died,
Are alive and well.
The deep blood red ones.

Answering Cain

Yes. I am
My brother's keeper.
As our Grandfather
Said those many years ago,
"All you have is
Your brother."
All we have is each other
As has proven again
And again over the years.
Yes, we are each
Our own man
And we each
Make our own way
And we are
To keep each other.
