Your angel's wings are broken,
Stained and completely blood soaken.

For he once could soar, once could fly,
But now he's fallen from a place so high.

A place he achieved by none other than you,
But end his life he might just do.

Please, do not worry, do not fret,
Until he's gone, he's happy not just yet.

And with a final smile, and sorrowful sigh,
Your angel must bid you a final *goodbye.
For the girl who I thought could hang the moon herself.

The pictures behind my eyes
Are the only place I see her now,

For the graveyard is all too crowded.
Twisting, writhing bodies
All in rhythm to the beat
Their bodies keeping perfect time
To the movement of their feet

A hot and humid dance floor
All in the bands control
Except one wayward dancer
Dancing like a newborn foal

I loved her when I saw her
Arms akimbo, who knows where
Dancing to a different drummer
Face obscured by flying hair

She had the rythym of a metronome
That was broken, out of beat
And in my mind I could just picture
Barney Rubbles flying feet

She didn't care what they were playing
She surely couldn't keep in time
While they were playing four beats
She was hearing at least nine

She didn't care if people watched her
She danced alone and had her fun
sometimes she just kept dancing
long after the song was sung

I don't know what she was hearing
What song was playing in her mind
She was light upon her feet
but she was heavy upon mine

She danced with full emotion
She let the music draw her in
She danced where ever it would take her
She couldn't dance...is that a sin?

I loved her sense of freedom
She couldn't dance and didn't care
I'm just as bad as she is
And now we're a timeless dancing pair.
Subtle
Modest
Minute
Slender
One subtle glance and minute gesture
Set the modest, slender woman free.
Let your mind fill in what she was freed from

Ted Williamse's  head sits frozen
In a cryo chamber in Arizona to be
Thawed and reanimated at a later date.

The splendid splinter.          Set in eternal winter
After all said and done.       Thumper.

                                    THE  INTERVIEW

The­odore, was that a curve or slider ?.

"Can't say for sure sport. I picked up the seams  but it busted in
high and tight

Ted, what exactly was the plan ?

"Couldn't say for sure ace
I'm all in. they froze my head to a
cat food tin"

Ted When do you plan on coming back

"Well, I have no real timetable as such, you
know science moves forward in starts and lurches.
Reanimation and a cure would go real swell.
You know."

Well we all here are praying hard for a cure
You hang on in there. A century or so and your good as new.
By the way Ted ,who signed the papers?
" Couldn't rightly say chum but this meat locker
is sure for the birds"

All right buddy. Thaw
you later.

Well, keep your chin up Teddy and your powder dry
Just think good thoughts and the time will fly.
What's a hundred years to
Satan rules he is the master
He leaves behind
A trail of disaster
His aim never to enjoy
Destruction is his game
His ploy
His spoken words
They spit like fire
No truth
Evident
From this liar
His gift to all
His twain shall meet
Corruption >pain>lies> deceit
If a raindrop was a kiss
I would give them all away
If the sunlight was a smile
I would share them every day
If the stars were positive thoughts
I would sprinkle them with glee
If the wind could spread my love
I'd give it all abundantly
You may not be quite perfect
There may be things
You do not like
Things you say
Or things you do
Perhaps don't turn out right
With all your flaws
You may have found
It's not so bad
Don't wear that frown
As each new day dawns anew
Realise you are special
As there's only one you
I smile as I watch you laughing
I wonder where's the time

I push your hair back from your face
tilt your head to look at mine

I tell you that I love you
You say ~
I love you too

Tears well in my eyes
Emotions rise
You look at me with great surprise

I smile and say
You'll never know
Just how much I love you so

How much meaning
The joy you bring
To our home
When I hear you sing

Each day I feel your warm embrace
I thank god for your love
