God Rays
Staring too long into the looking glass,
trying to predict the future and
make sense of the past.
Time goes by lightning fast.
Poetry sets the cast.
Call it dreaming...
cloud surfing,
cartwheels on high wires,
living, laughing, loving
singing, no regrets.
Drink every drop of life,
before God rays
absorb the wake
and your soul sails
into moonlight.

Madness
Don’t give in to the madness.
Save it for another day,
long after you’ve left this life
that’s full of opportunities.
Life is like the weather.
All you have to do is wait
for the rain to go away,
the storm to pass,
and enjoy the sunshine
in between.

Go Fish
Look at you go girl.
Swimming in our veins,
straight to the soul.
No sweet lullabies
or sugar-coated lies.
Wielding words of a survivor,
who has been around the block a time or two.
No one is getting anything over on you.
You have mastered
the blues,
turned pain into power,
helping us forget
our worries by the hour.
Go Fish!

Good Days
God bless the good days.
Days a smile is no stranger to your face.
Days your favorite songs play, and you sing along.
Days faith is restored in humanity.
Days sunshine and fresh air makes life seem fair.
Days you feel the gentle touch of love.
Good days will see you through tough days,
down days,
diseased days,
bitter days that never seem to end,
days you have no friends,
days ...

In Which Orgasms are Compared to Musical Elation
Sometimes when musicians finish
A piece that has gone well, they let out a
Combination sigh and laugh that
Expresses relief and pure joy.
It’s the same laugh you hear from
Women who have had a satisfying
Orgasm, enhanced by a slight tinge
Of guilt for being unduly blessed.
Of course, these laughs are never
Unwarranted. In both cases,
Substantial effort is required
To produce an even...

My Pied Piper
I drink of you often
in my day dreams
about night things.
When I'm lost and alone,
you soothe my soul
with your sweet melody
that dances on the wind
and carries me
to a faraway place
where love never ends.

Gibson
Beautiful how you're glistening
Beautiful my mahogany
I love the way you sound to me
I love the way you make me free
Smooth on top I start to groove
Smooth on top your maple wood
Sounds that always make me move
Sounds just like my childhood
Smells like amps and old gear
Smell the old speakers where I am near
Tastes like sex and cheap old beer
Tastes like celebrating on New Year
O...

Songs From The Womb
Through my life I’ve collected voices
maybe twice a decade a new singer comes to me
and I can’t let it pass by
without holding tight
Through the years certain songs seem magnetic, somehow
whole albums written in a style I know too well
for it to be coincidence
and I have to hold it close
When Joni sings of ‘skating away’
something jumped out of the speakers
and Leonard says a ‘highwa...

Poetic Pianist
By Pen or by Keys
He teases his words
Completely in tune
With the moment
Melody beckons
Through a
Symphony of seconds
An Eternal Echo

Mozart
O Mozart 's music fills me with delight,
And just like the Sun it is shining as bright.
It brings me contentment and with peace and calm
To my mind it acts as a beautiful balm.
It is all lovely and wonderfully moving,
So resplendent and incredibly soothing.
In his works we see how his genius shows
And by it we hear how it all perfectly flows
He began to compose as...

Devotion and Desire
Your fingers strummed the strings of your guitar in a lazy, sleepy pattern as my consciousness began to drift
I inched as close to you as possible, molding my bones to yours as I seamlessly carved for myself a place at your side
Space was a silly idea, a concept at that moment we would never need to consider, should never consider
You played on as we laid together, my chest rising and falling a...

Poetry Understands
Poetry understands
walking dead,
monsters under the bed,
voices in your head.
Poetry understands
wounded souls,
storms, walls,
severed rainbows.
Poetry understands
broken hearts,
rainy days, lonely nights,
moon light.
Poetry understands
star-crossed love,
hopeless romances,
second chances.
Poetry understands
twin flames
guilt, shame,
the blame game.
Poetry understand...

Stranded High
Yet
My heart aches, and clouds hold fast my mind
Thought still I hear
The silence of the waves
The silence of their Siren pull
wash like hemlock through my senses
Their echoes crashing on my island shore
Returning to the sea
Unheard
Their hushed harmony
Foams surging up my beaches
A descant imprinted on my strand
Whispering back to the squalls
Unheeded.
Ne...

Clouds
One of my favorite games
to play as a child
was seeing shapes
in the clouds:
Dogs, cats,
elephants, giraffes,
airplanes, unicorns...
It was one of the
few pleasures
of my childhood.
As I grew up,
I began to see
scarier things:
Dragons, demons,
torn hearts,
flaming arrows...
Now in the archway
of my golden years,
I see beauty that
brings me to tears:

Summer And Everything After
Don't look the other way
the view can take me from you.
It's all written there
what we chasing..
Now it's the other way
don't let me fall from there.
The moment that we wanted
is fading..
I am not worried
I am not worried
everything changes
I am never worried
I am never worried
time is still fading
around you..
i swear it's true..
Ten thousand miles away
your shadow is danci...

February Scars
Take your pills
bury them somewhere,
on a road
that leads to nowhere,
we fall
like leafs on the ground.
Melt your swett
drope it around me,
turn the radio gatter the fallen stars,
bring your february
scars.
Let's pretend
we have no money,
close your eyes
lay upon me,
the whole world
is what we are trying to forget.
Let's pretend
we have no problems
get your things
and ...

Veronica
Veronica,
with a bullet in hands
with a smile on her face
with eyes full of betrail
she walks down the hill
Veronica,
this night is'nt fair
you just can't compare
your eyes with the grail
underestimating pain
And she walks
with a bullet in hands
and eyes full of betrail.
God knows
they're just a silver
scrapes in
may.
And she hates
her steps in the sand
and her crown has...

Try
Take your every step you've walked,
pretend you walk a mile from here
and go again
Show me how'd you get so far,
show me your forgotten call
and i'll be there...
Building up your silhouettes
building up your silhouettes
and going out again.
Take your dreams and fake them right,
fake them right once in a while
and walk away.
All you are is step in time,
dust is grey and rain is...
