The Man With Saleable Eyes

Posted on

If you happen upon a stranger a man with saleable eyes, there’s a watch in his pocket of silver that only tells you lies. And climbing up his poetry you can see for miles of roads and broken roses that seem to grow whenever he smiles. CHORUS He’ll lie, yes he’ll lie, and he’ll take…

Sweet Things

Posted on

How do I know where to put my next? How do I know where it should go? After 26 years, I still think you just guess. I do what I do as I’m told. CHORUS Just looking for sweet things on the side of the road. We don’t want to miss nothing. That’s why we’re…

The Sound of Amelia Singing

Posted on

There was a fight in the alley one night tensions were tight as a band one man had broken a bottle and held it in his right hand. An awful crowd had gathered around ’em cheering them down in the dark at first no one could hear the sound when, all at once, it fell…

Rubber Ball

Posted on

I am a rubber ball aiming for the sky so if I give the ground my all no need to wonder why. No need to be too good to be true. If I’m falling let me fall. Let me do as I do. I’m a rubber ball. I am a rubber ball. You’ve bought ’em…

If I Was a Cat

Posted on

If I was a pine I’d just grow. If I was the moon I’d just shine. If I was the sun I would rise and if was a spider’s web I’d pick a window and just trap bugs. I would not befriend you if I was… If I was a cat. I can imagine that….

Exploding Pen

Posted on

I found the wise old man cross legged on the tip of the mountain peak. I said, “I’ve walked a thousand miles.” He said, ” You are what you seek.” So I uncrossed my legs, rose from the peak and tossed my eyes to the valley. They rolled through town and found me deep asleep…

Ain’t Nobody

Posted on

Ain’t nobody lost forever. A broken heart is tried and true. Heaven is twenty-four seven. The sky is black and blue. Strange weathers fill our heads. Fallen angel feathers fill our beds. But we can lie there. We can lie there. Ain’t nobody, built to last unless we’re taking it day to day. Heaven comes…

Who Am I?

Posted on

Who am I, I shouted on the corner of two streets. Who am I, went looking to the bottom of a bottle. I’m somewhere between Baudelaire and Mad magazine. Just sitting there…… full throttle. I don’t think God makes mistakes and I don’t think I’m a really doin’ wrong, but somedays I think I don’t…

Freedom’s Tears

in between her sadness and my lust was us we felt like we felt like we must and we beat at our demons with brooms the back to back bound to be bride and groom we swung at the air with our fists till we were so exhausted we kissed and we fell like that…

Who Can Blame Them

Posted on

I’m just listening to lovers and waning like the round lights. I’m just asking older faces. They just closing like the quiet. Tulips were shaken by the wind of what was spoken. Now I’m dancing like a ship above all that has sunken. And I feel sorry for those that had to drown swallowing the…

Waiting

Posted on

Never gonna make it if you think it’s a ways. Never gonna make it if it takes some days. Never gonna make it if you’re only prepared. Never gonna make it lest you’re already there. I can tell. You belong on top of the world but you fell. Now you’re waiting in line behind yourself….
