crawl in here with me
head to head tail to tail or
headlong as you may
headlong as you may
falling from the sky, wiggling
parachute upright
parachute upright
legs ready to touch the ground
fear of broken bones
fear of broken bones
crumpled and lifeless, left for
dead in the forest
dead in the forest
heaps of fallen leaves wait for
burial in the earth
burial in the earth
in quiet darkness below
eternal sleep waits
burial in the
earth half remaining to attest,
still, derailed notions
still, derailed notions
reflect a dead heart and soul
s-trug-gling for life
s-trug-gling for life

aware of movement
aware of movement
in the green distance of life
crawling to the top
aware of movement
he had no option but to
run for his life.Snake!
crawling to the top
of the steep mountain he reached
the apex sky high
the apex sky high
disappearing in the blue
almost lost to sight
almost lost to sight
I cover my eyes with fright
wake me when it's o'er
wake me when it's o'er
creepy movies make me shake
and cover my eyes
and cover my eyes
with the petals of your lips
brushing them with love
brushing them with love
each strand of your golden locks
held softly in hand
held softly in hand
she felt life in the little
kitten and kissed him
kitten and kissed him
right on his l'il button nose
delightfully wet
delightfully wet
London's streets are
covered by drizzling drops
you have to buy new shoes every
three months!
shoes every three months
she is insatiable, no?
let her try them on
let her try them on
a fit of emollients
to make her look fresh
to make her look fresh;
cupped handfuls of ice water
thrown across her face
thrown across her face
expressions of great despair
massage them away
massage them away
despair is like ticks sucking
your hemoglobin
see, I'm so tired and slow....
massage them away
these achings from the long day
soothing words you say
soothing words you say
in this moment of distress
You're a real friend!
you're a real friend
holding my heart carefully
touching with your love
touching with your love
turn the evening lights into
twilight's corpuscles.
twilight's corpuscles
beating, pulsing, a thin moon,
slivers of silver
slivers of silver
that have been there a moment
and gone with the blink
and gone with the blink
of an eye is the next word
for which I've waited
for which I've waited
and saved up all my nickels

my new Schwinn Flyer
waxed, painted, like a callgirl,
my darling, Rosebud.
my darling, Rosebud,
upstaged by closing doorways
as they kiss his hand
as they kiss his hand
he thinks of the sea and home
the singing mermaids
the singing mermaids
with their sweet alluring wiles
swing home the mast sail
swung home the mast sail
to the rhythm of the sea
till it took her home
till it took her home
her memories were pleasant
time so slow creeps on
time so slow creeps on
when fear comes knocking. I wait...
...wait...for him to go.
