I can't forget the song of yesterday, her eyes,
Never to be seen by mine, wont yet shalln't define,
Blessed Athena perched, mayhap a serpent in twine,
Blisters her hair in shine, ember as the flame cries;
...

Morgenlicht erscheint am Gesicht,
Das jung und so kalt ist,
Die Ausdrueck davon ist nicht klar,
Und wenn die schlauen Schatten spielen sollten,
...

We lay in the parking lot, trying to find God,
I did not know her, but I held her as a friend,
We shared passion and serenity as we'd bend,
So Zeus praised us holy, his gift the lightning rod;
...

The gift I give to each new heart
Is the time which never became,
For if we jet through and beyond space,
We miss it-Hailey, never forget the name;
...

So sayeth the sage that lo nature is not without order,
But it knows the realm, between sky and earth no border,
So exists the Kingdom of Heaven only in those who define,
What is written in the scripture, that is heart and divine;
...

I see your face a contradiction,
A myth so mighty in musing,
Your lips a cave of perfect diction,
From whence words whimper in choosing;
...

They made the fire so they want it to spread
the fire, the fire, the fire
They fan the flame to the forest bed
and the flames grew
...

The story of young men and women blossoms under the Devilmoon's shade,
This is where stars hide because gilded boulevards envy them so:
Where nights illuminate themelves in the crossroads of brick-bedecked corridors,
Where one might see hanged gallows and galleries of the heart soul and spirit of the happily hungry,
...

Mary's a strange sort of lass
Mary's got it, call it sass
She's like a tiger in my tree,
Resting on limbs to punish me
...

Bare trees
They line the road and sway in the breeze
Dead leaves
They lie on the road and as the traffic flows
...

Addicted to the same seat, the smack bursts my spleen,
The screaming keyboard on the floor wishes to bleed,
Red eyes stiff as a board, relent not but their greed,
The needle fixes the arm, bolt me high caffeine;
...

You can't walk away from the greatest show on earth,
All you know is that you've been dead since birth,
Searching the world for what it's worth,
Only discovering settled turf,
...

Little lady laced in the heavenly gown,
Caught outside the witching hour,
I see your face as a benevolent frown,
Lonely angel on hallow ground,
...

How you flutter so high,
Unaware there flows a tide,
No secrets do you hide,
You are freedom for the sky;
...

Lend me your bridal hand, the best your new ring can,
I meet you to greet you, so I'll feed you when glad,
House seeded and completed, never growing mad,
Your wish to understand, for answers ask your man;
...

The city is jazz under neon lights,
The jazz is blues stoned,
And the city never forgets this,
Like the heart never forgets to pulse,
...

And where'er your sun rises, might you find yourself there also,
Where there's paradise, then there's play,
Where there's summer, then there's day,
And where'er your sun rises, might you find yourself there also;
...

It comes, it owns our fears
We hear it with closed ears
And speak it through the years
It comes, it owns ours fears
...

Tip top down the spine
It's a meltdown
It's what the kids call chaos
Being dead or alive
...

The words I heard, misunderstood
Were solid in winter, cold and bare
My skin crept, listening
My great or lesser mind listing
...
