Lost Again
Catch your breath, throw sand in the wind,
When you feel your love you will lose it again...
Don’t stop to wonder what went wrong!..?
Throw down the seeds and it won’t be long.
They won't take the crops but they’ll take the seed...
living long and filling their need.
open the door go out in the night,
don’t fear the dark, you’ll have your sight.
It's probably right
it's probably true
It's all so soothing...
It's what we, normally,
...would have been doing.
Music is the liquid that is in your soul,
Laser is the light that makes it whole.
All the things that were born to die...
Can’t escape that look in your eye.
Catch your breath, throw sand in the wind,
When you feel you are back in again.
All the things that you said would end...
seem to be starting again!..?

Ardent Octopus
As the Ardent Octopus...
lay, sleeping on his side.
Memories of all the ocean
were, barely on his mind.
Offering all sorts of shapes
to keep, them from being bored.
Thats the way that all things looked...
then, hope was restored.
Morning was early with a mystic noise,
Something stopped all replies,
from being made, as the world asked,
countless questions...your sanity was risked.
As the Ardent Octopus...
was, the only one of his kind.
Somewhere in the ocean
that, he thought he may find.
Offering ideas in a different way
then, the time before.
"And" the Ardent Octopus...
sank, slowly to the floor

Ardent Requiem (tame the land)
Air is cold and the dust is dry.
Nobody ever heard the Ardent Octopi.
Plastic is forever...
My thoughts are whatever...they would seem.
Remember why you felt the cold of outside.
You were caught, hauled up and laid inside.
You know that you were wrong...
and right again...all the time.
All the people on the hills were friends with us,
They tamed the land into wilderness...around us,
If only I could find what is exactly on my mind...
and have you to talk to, to know who,
But now...I can’t move.
Left in view of outside...
On a shelf, unblinking through formaldehyde.
Plastic is forever...
I couldn’t even tell them, that I’m alive.
In this jar, can’t look in but out instead.
Feel the metered words stuck in my very head.
And poetry... is all I have...
But I can’t speak...

Carousel
I’m riding my carousel...
One horse going round and round.
I’m looking for that land of joy and peace...
I don’t want to be hurried ‘round...
Got no place to rush off to...
just want to spend my time with you.
You can grab that brass ring if you try...
and, I will stay by your side.
I call you on the telephone.
You say, (that you) "...don’t want to be alone..."
I dropped everything, I’m right there by your side.
Some say we’re crazy, some say we’re strange.
It don’t matter "none", its all the same...
Could you give our love just one more try..
You can grab that brass right if you dare...
and, I will always be there.

Its Always Evening (somewhere)
Sunlight rises, daylight finds us...
soundly in the air.
and we’re not going to change...
change just to compare.
If it was only you, and the sky at night,
could it always be that way?
and would the feelings then all change...
when night turns into day..?
All the time you’ve left around you...
soon gets in your way.
and the pieces that have fit...
will not after today.
If it was only us and the sky at night,
could it always be that way?
could you be alone with someone else?..
and, find a better way to say...
...Its Evening Somewhere...
Sunlight rises, proof behind us...
so it is any way.
and the pieces that have fit...
will not after today.

Today
Don’t even describe the sky,
it will hurt you on the mortal side.
Position the corner right at the sun...
find direction and you’ll have begun to fly...
Be sure the far side,
is where you can’t see.
In the absence of thinking...
we’re really only blinking...blinking
Consequently did you ever see a star die?
Watch it expand and fall back inside?
This can be done if you...
Don’t even describe my mind,
it will draw you deep inside.
With a where and a when...
it will pull you back again...
Be sure to partake, and always be awake,
to me, and you, and everything we do...
today...

And You
As he grabbed the torchlight,
the bolt burned his hand cold.
In shocking approval of romance reheard...
explosions are never sold... to you.
And he remembers...
something he said before.
Out in the time, he couldn’t have known..
he’d love you anymore...anymore.
You get the car...
I will grab your coat.
Out in the road, I’ll find out...
what is little known about...you...about you
