When is a penny worth more than a cent?
When is a quarter a fortune alone?
When do they buy happiness wthout being spent?
Only when they are thrown.
...
Spiders!
Spiders in my head
Cobwebs catch on everything
Cling to everything
...
She's sleeping when i leave
i'm a'bed when she crashes home
lying together, we live alone
Thus like one bereaved
...
Pick up my spirit as i pick up my pack
i get lighter as it goes on my back
Slip the shadows as i slip my roof
...
Wishing Stone
When is a penny worth more than a cent?
When is a quarter a fortune alone?
When do they buy happiness wthout being spent?
Only when they are thrown.
Nickel plated envelopes carry copper coated prayers,
Silver secrets for God's ears alone,
Blessed, hopeful messengers, each one bears
A mission all its own.
Those that fail are lost forever,
dreams and coin plumb the unknown
But those that succeed in their endeavor
glitter like heroes upon the wishing stone.
