One Lord One Dream

One Lord, One Dream

by Charles E S Fairey


One smoke, one toke,

One death, one life, mean?

One time, one crime,

One lord, one dream, seen?


God knows, Death knows,

My name written in the Book,

He tokes and then blows,

Thinking of the life he just took.


Look about and around

One lord, one time,

Can you hear that angelic sound,

Did you see that great sign?


One time, one crime,

Are you worth one nickel and dime,

If so stand in that line

And see if you are his or mine.


Name of names

And song of songs

Light up the flames

And listen for the tongues.


One lord, one time,

One dream, one crime,

You’re the next in line

And with that herb you’ll feel fine.
