Family Matters

So Tchaikovsky was a fag they say At least that’s the word for today. Got to pay him some tribute For giving chastity the boot? And from the law we should run away? Do your own thing? A gay song to sing? They don’t say that he was active. Maybe just to “pervs” attractive! We […]

(2 Sam 13:10-31) Amnon was a nasty fellow, Was fornicatin’ with Tamar. (10) Said, “Come lie with me sister.” Said, “‘T would be a disgraceful thing! If you want to get it on, go talk to the king.” (13) But Amnon would not give a listen Couldn’t wait to get on with that kissin’ (14) […]

(2 Sam 12:24f) David comforted Bathsheba And along came a boy, Samuel, Had a nickname Jedidiah. (25) Meanwhile Joab fought against Rabbah And they captured that royal city. (26) Took the crown right off he king’s head My oh, my, ‘Twas a pity! (30) Must have been awfully gory But turned out for David’s glory. […]

Everybody, large or small Has that Gospel need. Matters not their triumphs In pulling out those weeds. So when you, that fellow proud, Think he’s riding on the cloud, Don’t be taken by his ploys Hobnobbing with the boys, Acting like the man of the house When we know he has no power, All subsumed […]

Laden with lots of ass wiping, She fell into morbid griping, And finding in life no pleasure, Chose to forsake the treasure. Life was no longer a thrill! Time to end it all with a pill. Just didn’t have time to wait For the Lord to open the gate. Children were such a drag; Didn’t […]

Tchaikovsky, like mankind described by St. Paul in Romans (chapter 7), was a notoriously difficult man when it came to matters of the heart. After marrying one of his students, Antonina Miliukova, he immediately realized that wedded life was not for him. He said: “There’s no doubt that for some months on end I was […]

Brockhoeft, Beseda and Bray A trio who had their own way. Each had his very own day In the light when the feds came down. Caught ’em after chasin’ ’em around. Well, you could call them the Triple Bs Setting “clinics” on fire to save babies. Call them whatever you choose; They got nothin’ to […]

Started out in a place called Long Beach Way out there, yeah way out ‘o reach! Traveled around all over my life; Didn’t mind it much and finally got a wife. O she’s a girl a fellow couldn’t do without! Got lots o’ good looks and plenty of clout; Yeah she’s a fine little thing […]

So the next time you see that fool Walkin’ down the street, don’t tweet And talk about his foolish ways. Remember there were you, Just the other day, Flittering around like a bat. Think right now about that! You were gone, long gone Down the road of stupidity, Caught all up in your cupidity, Rolling […]

(2 Sam 11) Bathsheba was the daughter of EliamAnd David went out to trot After that wife of a loyal Hittite A woman bound to do right. He was a fellow by the name of Uriah So David worked up a plan to say “Goodbye-a” Put him right out on the front line; He’d be […]

Ikeman the Eggman spreads that grease All over the stove every morn’ But I don’t mind a little chore Been doin’ such since before he was born. He’s a good lad, we know, always on the go Teaching school and coaching wrestling, If not for him and Petra, we’d be empty-nesting. And I don’t know […]

Forty years ago we didn’t want any! Hard to think on it now with plenty, And yet the start is always with that one And she did bring lots of fun Breaking that ice and leading the way For all to follow in her sway. Yes, there is that influence, good or bad, And it […]

No, this will not be an anti-dope polemic, but it will argue for perspective and the proper judgment in the matters. I think of years of visiting men in prison, most of which occasions for incarceration had to do with dope. Buying and selling and using dope has landed lot of folks in jail. And […]

(2 Sam 8 and 9) David defeated Hadadezer Son of Rehob, king of Zobah To restore his rule of the river. (8:3) Captured 20,000 foot soldiers, Yeah, he was quite the manager! Hamstrung those chariot horses Except for the hundred he needed. (v. 4) Oh a war-like spirit he seeded In those loyal men, his […]

Depopulation – like other things – happens. The circumstances may be good or bad. There are wars and diseases and personal reproductive restraints which are in play in the control of population or – we may say – the actual depopulation of the earth’s premier creature. The duty of humans, that one “species” created uniquely […]

O the magnitude of her decrepitude Wandering the streets alone In desperate search for a cigarette. Her features most hideous In a condition quite piteous, Teeth and mind scattered about Desperate for a way out. What to do with a decrepit shrew? What have I with her to do? Whence came this crazy lass?’ No […]

2 Sam. 4:8f Well, they cut off the head of Ishbosheth Said, they cut off the head o’ the wrong man! Brought that head to David and said, “Well, what do you think of this? Behold, the son of Saul, your enemy!” O this news was nothin’ but distress Those sons of Rimmon made a […]

1 Sam. 30:24f. Might pick up a spear and go to war Or stay with the baggage And sleep by the door So was the statute for the men of Israel That the spoils of the war went to Bethel And those in Ramath and even Jattir Shared all the goods and didn’t shed a […]
