covers up the truth
Going down together
techno-stuff-up spoof.

You are just a lemming
Swimming in the tide
Washing back and forward
No one is your guide

Ecomath ignored by all
Sun still rises, true
Underneath it starts to stall
Will it affect you?

Navigate the future path
Plan beyond today
Minimising nature’s wrath
There must be a way.

I mumble, I quake and I quiver
I search for truth and for laughter
Ache for hope to follow after
A prayer sent to heaven
Rises up like bread leaven
Not to be ignored or forsaken
Wishes and dreams for granted taken
Its a wonderful
Secret
To enjoy the cool Rain
On a dark Night.

The feeling of an immense Treasure
No one else will sense
Alone—
But in good company
With cool drops on your
           skin
And a hope that it will last for
          ever.

But it doesn’t.
And you return with
Rain-Tangled Hair
And their hopes that you
Are not chilled.
Light steps and endless love
We are all following the holy dove
Walking in the rain of joy
Worshipping the statue boy
Oh he gives us hopes and dreams
Floating down with birds and streams
Flags and signals in our hearts
Illusions and the touch of all the arts
Green grass and naked lies
Sleepless ghosts with innocent cries
Dancing with our angels of death
Swim in the water but we won’t get wet
Feathers and flowers all around
The wind and rivers is the only sound
We keep on looking till it is found
The paths we seek are all so bright
With the touch of the sacred light
Clouds and moons dissolve at once
People search for their long lost sons
The beginning seems to be ending now
We all fall down and to the statue bow
Jump into the ocean and drift away
If only we could be here forever and stay
These mountains and skies and glowing trees
Nothing here is bound to seize
The enemies have fallen at last
It keeps us all from dying fast
Releasing the spirits of a thousand souls
Filling up the deep black holes
Finally we have found what we were looking for
The mirrors break and we are no more.
Running wild, I knocked on the door

The hallway defiled, red dripped to the floor

Two bodies piled, one left with more

Lackluster child, forgotten - a bore

Well-mannered and mild, now just a *****
There they lay, 16 paper dolls.
Forever entwined.
Hand in hand.
At peace.
Don't ask them to part because they won't.
You'll have to cut or burn them, because they are a resilient bunch.
But even in slivers and ash, they remain together, for no one knows where one begins the other ends.
Crumpled or bashed, they remain intact.
You need to get rid of all of them to get rid of one of them.
True friends are paper dolls.

Sarah
My soul divulged upon your page,
inked in tangible measure.
a hundred years before my name was uttered,
days before it was tied to another.
Joy
I feel like I
Could touch the sky
And hold it in my hand.

It swirls along
My very palm
And slips into the sand.
Who is she
this enthralling person of skin and bones
why is she here
she looks at me and her eyes are like fire and ice,
creating a smoky addiction i can't imagine being without
who is she
where is she
i haven't found her
i doubt i will
who is she

You’re a good man, Charlie Brown.
You just confuse me
Cause when your good you are oh so good
But when your better you throw me
And I say the things you want to hear
Which isn’t always good or true.
Your words are bigger and longer
Than any one I know
You’re oh so smart and loyal
Just please sit down while you speak
Cause when you start pacing my brain goes racing
And it’s my words that lose their feet.
But I love you dearly, deary
And you say you love me too.
But when you come running
And the football goes tumbling
Its cause my brain kicked it too.
