Leaning Toward Eternity
When I die put my ashes in a coffee can stained from age,
Weighted with fools gold and sealed with bee's wax.
Then lower me in the upset waters beside the overgrown bank,
Where the old weeping willow leans toward eternity.
Opinion And Fact
The difference between opinion and fact
Is how well you pronounce the words.
Foul words like fools gold glitter;
A clever expression of anger --
If you follow the rules.
Sharing our daily bread,
We argue the nature of creativity,
Trouble over a dash or a comma,
Fret the meaning of life,
Whine over who gets the heel.
So long as you don't take it personal.
And if you believe that,
You've just fallen for
The difference between opinion and fact.
