the factories and the mills
of the South shut down….
our jobs sold overseas.
you’re passing the debt ceiling bill,
taking from the poor, the elderly,
and the sick,
while the rich still pay… nothing!
Satan’s deals!

the burnt fringe of the cloth
a lion roars in the dark,the child kneels and prays.he laid stone upon stonetill it touched the sky;the history of a manwho lived but to die!when all becomes nothing,nothing left behind;but the gift of the giver,and a satisfied mind.
