So Much Soul

You get up; I lie down.
You throw all of your fortune around,
but my fortune's not money.
No, my pockets are empty.
But my spirit is moving
and I got so much soul.

I lie down; you get up.
Put a little more drink in this cup
'cause I just can't be sober
until this night is over.
But my spirit is moving
and I got so much soul.

[long instrumental break]

I get up; kick you out.
There will be no more fooling around
'cause I wasted too much time.
Gon' get on with my own life
'cause my spirit is moving
and I got so much soul.

Another awesome tune from Butcher the Baker. If you haven't liked us yet on Facebook, do yourself a favor and get on that. :)

Ostrich

Too afraid to stand and fight; Too much pride to fly away. Cowardice: immobilize Egos lacking skill to play! Games of conflict can’t be played By those afraid to deal a hand. Flightless birds avoid their call Ostriching heads in the sand.  Thanks, Trifecta for the prompt, which requested an animal name be used as a verb. I figured I might as well ignore the dictionary and make my own...flightless birds have always intrigued me, anyhow.

thirsty darkness

She  stood aloof nothing stood in the way of her purpose. buffeted by the cool winter breeze, nothing stood but She had watched others fall to the whirr or tumble into thirsty darkness but she refused to let the world assign her pain. Her pain was her own. She stands calmly, patiently awaiting tomorrow. will it bring an end or another beginning? what use in new predictions? tomorrow we chase the yesterdays we did not catch today.  (again.) She will herald the end to nothingness by giving in to it and tumbling into thirsty darkness as winter blows itself away ...Prompted by the 100 Word Song writing challenge at  My Blog Can Beat up Your Blog .  T his week's track: Tom Petty's "I Won't Back Down".
