chilly and rainy mouse eyes unseeing re-arrangiung the furniture again wind makes the house creak The universe created us just so it could see itself
sometimes we hear nossies in the night out there but its only the waterheater
footsteps lope away thumping in the dark
Proud to be descended from pond scum
all my neighborhood uses a leafblower on their leaves – its called the wind
‘ll never forget the factory wall falling on fire burnin clear from broad street dragging my dog or my clown up icey crestmont hill before the houses were built the kids wrecking my dam while i writhed with appendicitis looking from the window going to grandmas while the kittens died
the sound of feet in the dark
gallopping in the dark away night
unseen
dug carrotts, split wet oak
gas drillers, animal abusers
ice anns snow ants coffee drinkging cat
the sound of a plate on the table
day drawing shade dark down over snowy day
Frannie thinks I broke the outside
my feet arew cold and its snowing
red-hot glowing nails
Dave Bubeck: “faculty meetings are one of the best reasons not to teach at a university.”
the guy crying on WKBN because of the billboard battle near lIncoln tunnel entrances — he chokes up trying to say the billboard shoukd just have a picture of jesus on them
forgot sandbags
power the grid with eels or terra power
headlights on a snowbank
“vote-related deaths”

Marcellus drilling everywhere – billboardss, newspaper headline by the door of the little store down the highway compressors and generators and drill bits and earthmoving equip to make the roads
I used to rememebr it by a friends sisters name 0 — a woman lying under the eearth how many miles
Shaw Findlay Ohio – that big bit big as a run round with teeth big as a ….bathtub
Crow on his meat by bthe side of the road shiny happy crow
I pledge allegiance to the pines and the ground upon which they – we stand
and the crow does too
The Lady of the Ham in IGA went on so long turning over every ham in t2 3 cases I was hungry for ham too – I ordered some at the deli and the clerk sighed and swore – she couldnt have been growling at me –I dunno it ois the mahoning valley but i still felt awful for ordering sliced cheap pressed ham
Isiving at the edge the edgee sharp and black living at the edge of the pitof yongstown a blessing
Christmas wash – just wanta dry mu clothes not buy mning euqipment or run an electricla gnerating equipmreent

Lyrics to when I die — dead and gone
to “I feel fine Im talking about peace of mind hugging a tree when yo get near it
======
And When I die Blood Sweat & teras
writen by Laura Nyro
I’m not scared of dying
and I don’t really care
if it’s peace you find in dying,
well then, let the time be near
If it’s peace you find in dying,
well then dying time is near
just bundle up my coffin,
’cause it’s
cold way down there,
I hear that it’s
cold way down there, yeah
crazy cold, way down there
And when I die, and when I’m gone
there’ll be, one child born
in this world
to carry on, to carry on
Now troubles are many
there as
deep as a well
I can swear there ain’t no Heaven
but I pray there ain’t no hell
Swear there ain’t no Heaven
and I’ll pray there ain’t no hell
but I’ll never know by livin’
only my dyin’ will tell, yes only my
dyin’ will tell, oh yeah,
Only my dyin’ will tell
And when I die, and when I’m gone
there’ll be, one child born, in this world
to carry on, to carry on
yeah yeah
Give me my freedom
for as long as I be
All I ask of livin’
is to have no chains on me
All I ask of livin’
is to have no chains on me
And all I ask of dyin’ is to
go natrually, only wanna
go naturally
Here I go!
hey hey
Here come the devil
right behind
look out children, here he come
here he come, heyyy
Don’t wanna go by the devil
don’t wanna go by the demon
don’t wanna go by satan
don’t wann die uneasy
just let me go
naturally
And when I die, and when I’m dead
dead and gone
there’ll be
one child born, in our world
to carry on, to carry on

List of Tommy James And The Shondells Lyrics
Makin´ a living the old hard way
Takin´ and giving by day by day
I dig snow and rain and bright sunshine
Draggin´ the line (draggin´ the line)
My dog Sam eats purple flowers
We ain´t got much but what we got´s ours
We dig snow and rain and bright sunshine
Draggin´ the line (draggin´ the line)
Draggin´ the line (draggin´ the line)
I feel fine I´m talkin´ bout peace of mind
I´m gonna take my time I´m gettin´ the good sign
Draggin´ the line (draggin´ the line)
Draggin´ the line (draggin´ the line)
Loving the free and feelin´ spirit
Of huggin´ a tree when you get near it
Diggin´ the snow and rain and bright sunshine
Draggin´ the line (draggin´ the line)
I feel fine I´m talkin´ bout peace of mind
I´m gonna take my time I´m gettin´ the good sign
Draggin´ the line (draggin´ the line)
Draggin´ the line (draggin´ the line)
Draggin´ the line (draggin´ the line).
