oh the price of war
blood and burning flesh and souls
unrest,turmoil,fear
Unrest, turmoil, fear
fleeting thoughts, first day at school
please get me through this
please get me through this
extend a hand, pull me through
the torn veil, release.
The torn veil, release
expectations shatter loosely
with my fragment heart
with my fragment heart
broken and bleeding, bereft,
sinking in the sea
Sinking in the sea
the flash of a mermaid's tail
kissed by bright sunbeams
kissed by bright sunbeams
bask in the god's vain glory
it will be his end
It will be his end,
pesky mole humping my lawn,
eyeing my tulips
eyeing my tulips
brown-tinged sun-dried red petals
ready to fall off
eying my tulips
the doe eyed blue sky bows down
to kiss them off hue
terrific speed you have, Reader!
to kiss them off hue
bent knees in the green green grass
filled with scent of spring
filled with scent of spring
the joy blossoming in me
carries me away
carries me away
like seeds dispersed by the wind
the thought of parting
the thought of parting
harrowed like a plow the soil,
my heart's kingdom rent
my heart's kingdom rent
in two by a jagged stroke
that lit up the night
that lit up the night
that made things twinkle like stars
we had our day!
we had our day!
blossomed with our spiral film
lushly unbroken
lushly unbroken
your earthly golden beauty
staring into me
staring into me
relentless gaze, unbroken
intrusions shrugged off
intrusions shrugged off
the door was shut so tightly
insiders held up
insiders held up
its too tight in their teacup
water pours down hot
water pours down hot
or cold it makes no difference
when putting off fire
When putting off fire
be sure to omit lipstick
and act casual ... ;)
and act casual
or else someone will spot you
and call the police
and call the police
horns blaring and lights flashing
now who can sleep, huh?
now who can sleep, huh?
now why would he have sweet dreams
the day has emeged
the day has emerged,
caverns sing uprooted sun
echoed from the deep
echoed from the deep
black middle of living earth
hearts of men shiver
hearts of men shiver
cold tyranny of war sings
another stanza
another stanza
a stanza after stanza
and there she appeared!
and there she appeared
leaving footprints in my dream
veiled in gauzy silk
veiled in gauzy silk
the Princess of Arabian
Nights lit my dark life!
Nights lit my dark life
Neon shapes, curling, shining,
Driving through my brain
Driving through my brain
caring not for signals red
thoughts crashed against thoughts
thoughts crashed against thoughts (great line, Maz!)
boulder-sized images fly
dropping ideas
Dropping ideas
as the fireflies flicker
the night is not done
the night is not done
let the romance of meteors
stay with us awhile
stay with us awhile
let your fingers linger on
the daffodil's face
the daffodil's face
is your mirror, look closely,
touch and you are touched
