Everywhere

strong as rushing water
plunging from the falls
soars through air
turns to mist
and covers
me
cool and sweet
wherever i stand

Is that You

Where are you?
Just pain to hold
I look everywhere
eager light
Stole the stars
Put them in her apron

Where are you?
Just pain and bone
I look everywhere
the new day
Hides the stars
Put them in her purse

Where are you?
Just pain and cold
I look everywhere
morning sun
Swallowed the stars
Put them in her heart

Keep them for me



Sorry. I’ll keep searching

Go

Don’t kill me slow
Make it swift
One clean sweep
With a machete

Don’t kill me slow
Make it quick
Shot through the heart
Point blank

Don’t kill me slow
Cause I’ll kill you first
Swing a bat
Watch it burst

Don’t kill me slow
Just go

Sorry to be so demanding

Taking Your Time

She was skipping all the way
Kicking rocks and hunting bugs
Take the Long Way Home
All alone
Wandering feet

She was skipping all the way
Finding sticks to use as bats
Call Me the Breeze
Buzzing ears
Teases fear

She was skipping all the way
Looking for cloud-men with pirate patches
Early Morning Rain
Numbing pain
Covers heart

Sorry… should have called

Taking Her Time

She was running all the way
can’t stop
can’t play
can’t yak
can’t stay
She was running all the way

no hello
no goodbye
jets for feet
she can fly

She was running all the way
cant stop
not today
not now
maybe May?

She was running all the way
can’t wave
no sir
legs are turbo
what a blur

Her lungs are strong
they won’t leak
lungs are strong
she’s not weak
breathe deep

her lungs are strong
she’s not weak

She was running all the way
can’t stop
can’t pay
leave some change
another day

She was running all the way
can’t smile
can’t frown
keep the map
she knows around

Her heart is mighty
it won’t burst
heart is mighty
doesn’t thirst
beats on

heart so mighty

I’m not wrong



sorry ... I was wrong
