Third . . .

. . . hand


Heard somebody say
They overheard you
Just the other day
A simple word
About the way we get along
If only I were sure
Of the semantics
Having doubts 'cause I'm
One hopeless romantic
Could it be
You're slipping away from me

What will I do
If what I'm thinking is true
And you want to be
Really free of me
I won't last very long
Very far from your heart
And this third-hand intelligence
Might be the way that it starts.

Heard somebody say
They thought they saw you
Walking in their way
You were not alone
They said he didn't look like
Thinking to myself
Must be mistaken
Try not to believe
but still badly shaken
Why would you
Deceive me in things you do

So many years
Sharing our laughter and tears
Lasted very long
Maybe I was wrong
Not to ask you
Why you feel
We've drifted apart
And this third-hand intelligence
Might be the way that it starts

Are my sources reliable
Wait and see
Wait and see
Is my psyche too pliable
It could be
It could be

If somebody said
The sky was falling
Would you believe it's true
And change your direction
From spinning round
When it hits the ground
That's just not true
Any believers are few
When you've seen it all
It could never fall

Any more than
I think you could
Tear us apart
And this third-hand intelligence
Might be the way that it starts

Take . . .




Shouts in the street
I hear them as I'm walking home
Shoes on my feet
Touch down and take off as I roam
Dreams lifted up
So many pies in the sky
U-flying-o's
I duck them as they fly on by

Tomorrow takes care of itself
Today has its trial and its call
Janus he waits at your door
Rising or breaking his fall
You've got your "Time"
And secrets that love has betrayed
The long yellow line down your spine
That your feeling has frayed

Take my hand we may see
Everything we mean to be

When we meet again
Should it be under blanket of night?
All that remains
Is the matter of choice in disguise

Take my hand we may see
Everything we mean to be
Am I with you or you with me?
We have our time then take our leave

Deep in the heart
Where paradox finds its resolve
Long bodies live
They've learned how to bend to absolve
Now desire is the tie
That holds us fast to life
For the sweetness of the honey
Risk the peril of the hive

Now I'm running through your veins
In exchange I know your pain
All the lies have run aground
And to this earth I'm bound

Just One More . . .

. . . reason to stop going to church . . .



(from http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/maryland/politics/bs-md-ha-guns-churches-20171212-story.html)
". . . Harford County Sheriff Jeffrey Gahler has asked state lawmakers to let handgun owners bring their weapons to worship, saying he wants congregations to be able to defend themselves against a mass shooting like the one that happened last month in Texas. . . Gahler backs a proposal that would let parishioners who have the written permission of church officials wear and carry a handgun on church property. The parishioner would need a state handgun license, but not a concealed-carry permit. . ."

Runs . . .


She comes out of the night she wrote every book you've read
Fingering her pearl(s) every bead a lover dead
She wears that feathered hat ends up burning on the bed
Her freedom ring's not cheap the beast the till both must be fed

We twins sit on this leather seat this woman this man
One lives the level of her heart the other's gland's in hand
She serves that wicked brew opens minds opens eyes
Holds up the looking glass cracks to cut the shame that binds

What is is what is not is too
This emptiness inside includes
The mystery awaiting moving you
To be released and not removed

And she runs me down in my limousine
And she picks me up in my limousine
And we drive it home give our breath away
Though I'm left alone no way am I the same

The hand extends the fingers eyed they fondle urging every word
You only have what you give up fluxing in the flow
Holding on to what you want will only keep it out of reach
And lock you up inside yourself and block epiphany

Read the beat the rhythm takes and gives
The bodies dance in primal play
Forever steps alive into today
Here each word points but does not say

And she runs me down in my limousine
And she picks me up in my limousine
And we drive it home give our breath away
Though I'm left alone no way am I the same

The Other . . .

. . . hand

(from wikipedia.com)
"Thomas Jeffery "Tom" Cole is the U.S. Representative for Oklahoma's 4th congressional district, serving since 2003. He is a member of the Republican Party. He is a Deputy Majority Whip"

. . . believes Clinton to be unfit to be President, due to among other things . . .

(http://www.npr.org/2016/07/06/484987301/gop-leaders-criticize-fbi-recommendation-not-to-charge-hillary-clinton)
". . . The stuff I heard yesterday was sort of hard to think how did you come to all these conclusions and yet come to a decision not to file an indictment? . . .This would have been a career-ender for anybody else in the State Department in terms of what they had done. And so you can't have one standard for the average American and something different because somebody is on the eve of being a major party nominee. . ."

. . . and he may be right! . . . but does that REALLY mean there is only ONE alternative???

Mid- . . .

. . . section . . .


. . . from Third-Hand Intelligence, a tune on which OHO is diligently working at present, is presented below as performed on solo piano by yours truly.  The OHO arrangement of this tune incorporates hard-rock elements while dynamically presenting a torchy story of the ill-effects that can potentially result when less-than reliable information is related between parties who do not necessarily hold any substantial stake in the matters in question. It really has shaped up nicely thanks to Messrs. Graboski and Reeve. It will hopefully appear on the tentatively titled 'Male Pattern Radness' in the not too distant future.

Hand . . .

. . . of God?


(from http://www.thepearlofsenecalake.com/blog/2011/07/finger-lakes-folklore)
". . . There are many stories/myths as to how the Finger Lakes of New York State came to be.     I particularly like the old Indian story that when God create the world, He rested on the seventh day and placed his hand on what would become the Finger Lakes.   His handprint became one of the most beautiful lands ever created. . . geologist tells us a different story.  There are actually eleven finger-shaped lakes in upper New York State that were formed when the glaciers receded at the end of the last ice age. . ."

Third . . .


. . . Hand Intelligence


Heard somebody say
They overheard you
Just the other day
A simple word
About the way we get along
If only I were sure
Of the semantics
Having doubts 'cause I'm
One hopeless romantic
Could it be
You're slipping away from me

What will I do
If what I'm thinking is true
And you want to be
Really free of me
I won't last very long
Very far from your heart
And this third-hand intelligence
Might be the way that it starts.

Heard somebody say
They thought they saw you
Walking in their way
You were not alone
They said he didn't look like
Thinking to myself
Must be mistaken
Try not to believe
but still badly shaken
Why would you
Deceive me in things you do

So many years
Sharing our laughter and tears
Lasted very long
Maybe I was wrong
Not to ask you
Why you feel
We've drifted apart
And this third-hand intelligence
Might be the way that it starts

Are my sources reliable
Wait and see
Wait and see
Is my psyche too pliable
It could be
It could be

If somebody said
The sky was falling
Would you believe it's true
And change your direction
From spinning round
When it hits the ground
That's just not true
Any believers are few
When you've seen it all
It could never fall

3rd Hand . . .

Working on developing and perfecting performance of the OHO-ized mid-section (conceived by Jay)
for 3rd-Hand Intelligence.  (Hear a sample of the instrumental version of 3rd-Hand Intelligence on Black & White Then Back at http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/rayjozwiak3)

Have to quit our stalling
Try to be prepared
Would you believe it's true
Or would you question
All the things you do
