lyrics
(It’s) Your Move

Written November 3, 2011 at the Your Move sculpture

A giant game piece
Used in the name of peace
Across from where you park love

Helicopter whirling overhead
I still overheard
A voice rise above,
“It’s your move!”

Move your piece
Move your peace
Move for peace

Contrast Comcast
Cast your system
System of casts
Not, what I am

Move your piece
Move your peace
Move for peace

MY LETTER TO CITY HALL
To whom it may concern:

Pursuant to today’s telephone conversation, thank you for your assistance. As you suggested, I did contact the Mayor’s Press Department.

It is my desire to coordinate press in two ways:
1) Obtain any positive *copy* covering the Philadelphia Police Department and the Mayor’s office. Any statements, press releases or related materials that can be edited and/or redistributed to news organizations would be greatly appreciated. I am looking for any information that will help substantiate that the Philadelphia Police have been doing an excellent job at Occupy Philly, as well as, being civil and cordial.

2) An on-camera appearance by representatives from the Police Department or the Mayor’s Office. Besides praising the Departments on camera, I would like to review the *move plan* offered to Occupy Philly by the Mayor. If we could shoot on-location Thursday or Friday during a picture perfect day, I would like to meet.

Questions include:
Where can Occupy Philly move? [The area will be filmed.]
Will there be electric?
Does Occupy Philly need any permits? Permits to move? Permits to play music? etc.
Can the move start this weekend?

Thank you. I shall await your advice.

Just bring it on
Bring on the sun
The light
The warmth
Insight
Depth and breadth

The night’s too long and cold
Just have hope and faith
I’m told

Lord, bring on the sun
Darkness undone
Lord, bring on the sun
Darkness undone

Lord, it’s here
I hear it’s here
In fact,
I feel it on my back

Writing the song Severe Whether underground at City Hall, Philadelphia

How do you even start
Where would you even begin
Before it’s snowin’
Not knowin’
Whether

What are you doing here
Do you know whether
You’re wrong or right
Do you know whether
You should really fight
Poverty. Society.
Do you care whether
You jeopardize democracy

Dear, you’re severe

I can’t believe the things
You did
All the goodness
You hid
So, now I’m saying…
Saying goodnight to you
Why get rid
Of a rational
Point-of-view?

Now, I’m saying
Goodnight

Writing the song at City Hall, Broad and Market, Philadelphia, PA

Did you sleep through the alarm?
Were you anticipating
No Harm?
The world transpiring
While you control
The switch

You didn’t move
You didn’t twitch
You didn’t love
You’re the witch

You didn’t move
You didn’t twitch
You didn’t love
You’re the which

As the scene
Washes clean
The line between mean
Seems to fade away

A separation
Of a state of mind
When mankind
Forgets being kind

Please don’t separate your state
From reality
Before it’s too late
Please don’t separate your state
From poverty
To where compassion has no fashion

Protesters at City Hall Philadephia
In search of logical arguments

Misinformed with deformed information
No credible info in what you state
Why not illuminate?
Something bright to shed light
Forget berate
Let’s educate
Yes to education
Yes to legalization
Yes to minimization of regulation
Yes to realization of an idea notion
Yes to realization of an idea nation

Writing a song in favor of the Federal Reserve Bank

aka <3 The Federal Reserve I'm fed up with people Bashing the Fed Especially, when there is no logic To what they've said [caption id="attachment_832" align="alignright" width="300" caption="The Fed Helps Poor People"]Love the Federal Reserve Bank Protest Poster[/caption]

A medium of exchange
That helps all…
More often then not,
Poverty is brought to change —
Change from change

There is nothing evil with our central bank…
Rather someone we should thank

Is that your wish?
Would you rather barter with a 3-day-old fish?

If you think you’re stuck
Between a rock and a hard place
Retrace
The steps of your future
To see how you make it out

It’s far-out
How you can see
What steps to take
There’s no doubt
You can get free
Make what you make
Of it
All depends
What we make
Of it
All depends
What we make
Of it

Create the flow… go!
