Grabbing Karma by the Reins
Part I of VIII: Luck of the Draw
In the standard Bicycle deck
Three in thirteen may produce a face
One in thirteen may produce an ace
Not so in this joker’s deck
The odds are stacked
There’s no safe bet…
Between magic tricks and icebergs…

...Sue Nami
She takes me out like a wave
No need for a life ring
Not looking for a save
Just wanna go down
Drown in a flood of memories
Of me and Sue
Of me and Sue Nami...

Need to give more than I take
Not to is a big mistake
It leads to longer songs
Give more to right the wrongs
Give more for shorter songs
Need’s a shorter song - rAveNswAn
…Months have passed
Nothing’s changed in town
But everything’s changed for Sir McKann
He’s molted all they knew of him
More animal than gentleman… - rAveNswAn
I was going for a “Dexter” in the Wild Wild West kinda thing.
I’ve got a map that I can’t read
And a compass that points due Wrong - rAveNswAn

Prescription for Crow’s Disease
Oh, doctor, I’ve identified
The source of the pain
It has a name
Same as my last name
But no, I’m not to blame
And doctor, what do you prescribe?
Can’t take more of this pain
Need a prescription …
A prescription
Help bring me back to sane…
To Ethan Whipp - “‘Caws’ he ain’t good’n-uff!"...from his father, Albert Cornelius Whipp
I love the lightning and thunder of a good brainstorm. - rAveNswAn
Thank you Chaucer!
