Emotional scars and burns

UNDEFEATED
by Tom Jensen
I AINT GOT NO PLANS this minute
So I'm seizing the moment - I'm in it
I'm not losing or winning - Just present
Not up, not down - I'm all around
From the city to the towns
to the horses and the plows
Not just the black or the white
But [crossed out: the] in the crowd
every face

If you can see it you can be it
If you wish to delete it then don't repeat it
Some Good advice to those who seek it
[crossed out: Though] Those Luckier than me might not need it
sure you can try to pin for the win
When the argument becomes heated
But a sly guy vies for the [crossed out: tie]
Because father Time's undefeated

What about space? That's a whole 'nother race
we started with moon then wouldn't you know pretty soon
It was on to Mars and that's just so far
There's more in store we keep raising the bar
I'd rather not roam stick closer to home
Preserve what we have before it's all gone!

Landscaper's Dream
You and me should get together
I'd cut your grass in any weather
Even though you know you could do better
Love the way you look in that pink sweater

You can work it off if you can't pay the fee
I do something for you and you do something for me
'Cause everybody knows you don't get nothing for free
I thought she knew I was joking but then she agreed

Just imagine my shock when she smiled and asked
Is that the only thing you can do is cut my grass?
Well, I'm good at many things I answered back
And with that she offered me a drink and a snack
(As she laid on her bed flat on her back)

Your lover awaits for your safe return
What keeps you warm is the love that burns
