To Another

I know a friend called Ben Kaffar
In some years time he'd be driving his Car
To many a festival where he'll play guitar

He'll play his sing-song tunes
To riff-raff beats
And sing his blue-bird lyrics
Many a stage he shall see
A famous man he will be

But oh, Dear Ben, it's been so long
Have you learned right from wrong?
Do people plague you with social etiquette
and cause you to worry and fret?

Don't be down, old bean
For in time, pain won't be seen!
Rejoice and dance with yourself
Put those doubts on the shelf
And set it aflame, ablaze, asunder
Let confidence roar like thunder!

That is it, I am spent
Perhaps in time I shall have some coin
With which to spend on more than rent

**

There is a man, Matthias the Kentzia
The man, the legend, the 'bestja'.

A man made to dare
Chest brazen with many a hair

Of Germanic descent and Maltese blood
Miles above those who live in the mud

Lover of Discipline and Imperium belief
With many a person he holds a beef

Some of these people he knows their face
The rest, one day, their IP he'll trace

They'll rue the day they fragged his ass
They'll wish they had a more respectable class

Thundering down with the raffica, akimbo
He'll leave you in martyrdom's limbo!

To Elaine!

He loves you
it's true
he made this sing-song to tell you the truth
like superman taking you into his booth

hipster fashion and pop culture jokes
it's when it matters that he chokes!

see the tell tale signs of love-stricken eyes
look deep, pray tell, don't be petrified

by his double-beat thumping heart
through his life a map you must chart

through thick and thin stick with him
when the lights are bright or even dim

lest there be darkness to fight within
lest there be troubles and you let them win!
