The Smell Of The Wind
the smell of the wind
consoled some of the tears in my eyes
the smell of the wind
softened some of the pain in my heart
the smell of the wind
lifted my mood by an inche
the smell of the wind
it did something to me
* * *
think of me as
the man who went outside
the house
bathing in the rain
it is not because i am
feeling uncomfortable
with the heat of my own
clothes
out there
as the rain falls
you cannot see the flood
of my tears.

Vast black skies lie empty
Wells of formless ink
For even the freest lie chained to the pitiless stone
With great jeweled bands of twisted gold
To keep a burden
Lose your wings
And embrace the solitude that gravity brings
Sometimes I Wish I Could
sometimes i wish i could
just fly away.
sometimes i wish i could,
touch the sky.
sometimes i wish i could,
walk away.
sometimes i wish i could,
never have tomorrow.
sometimes i wish i could,
just live today.
only today!
Every city
Every CITY looks different,
if you don't think so you should see,
why don't come with me,
and see the whole CITY.
if you won't believe me you will soon see it,
so now now you know can you role?
That is the truth about any city.
A Rumpus
Dog and Cat,
Around they go.
Dog is excited,
But Cat takes it slow.
Cat runs off,
Dog is closing fast,
When the Cat decides,
That it's time for a nap.
Dog isn't sure,
What, oh what, to do,
Hears a purr,
And cuddles up, too.
Fat cat in a Black Hat
I have a fat cat
that waers a black hat
He goes all around
up and down town
Was my fat cat
in his black hat
From sea to sea
and key to key
Went my fat cat
in his black hat
One day he died
and we all cried
for my fat cat
and his black hat.
Ode
Ode
to be lost in your sweet arms
to gaze in your orbs of love
to feel your warmth on my soul
to feel the heat from your lips
to whisper sweet sounds
in your ear; of a growing love.
So near I wish to be
to feel your heart beat
against my body.
Sometimes Ii
Sometimes it is hard to resist a good book
Sometimes it is hard to resist a good meal
Sometimes it is hard to resist a good laugh
Sometimes it is hard to resist the sleep
Sometimes it is hard to resist the star that shines so bright
Up in our sky
Eau de Lucifer
(posted in response to someone else's slightly more serious Ode To Lucifer: D)
Designed by our top parfumiers:
a scent, most wonderfully sulphorious.
Guaranteed tested on animals!
May cause a slight rash in some.
And, eternal damnation in others.
