Always Envy The Rich Man

By Daniel Spiller
Glenwood Springs

Always envy the rich man

hail the gold on his teeth

Rolled his roads stoges and fields and

I’m still stuck on my knees

Begging at the bottom of his feet

          like a dog drooling to eat

I have to stand up to something

          even if he breaks my knees

Always obey the rich man

work when he tell you to work

He go’n make bread outta your hands

and show you exactly what it’s worth

Diving for the dimes at his feet

          Kill your brothers to make ends meet

Covet your lives

Be no man’s device

As the world freedom cries

Won’t you sympathise 

No more envy the rich man

No more hail to the chief

You can make war with your own hands

And leave mine in my peace

You’re telling me who’s my enemies

          When you are the only one I see

Covet your lives

Be no man’s device

As the world freedom cries

Won’t you sympathise

Send Some Rain

By Deborah Holt Williams

Feels like hell here, Colorado!

Rocky Mountains shouldn’t get this hot.

Warm and humid, more like West Virginia.

Mother Nature gave us all she’s got.

Send some rain! Cool our home!

It’s the place we belong.

Plants are thirsty, bears are hungry,

Send some rain down mountain streams.
