A Little Piece of Me











Untitled



"And woman is the ocean,

The man in the moon did say.

"And she comes hither to me

And then she runs away.

So many things I do not see

So many things I cannot understand

I wonder what goes on inside her

What lies beneath her sands

She stares at me with deep blue eyes

Her smile gleaming white

I watch her move throughout the day

And light her way at night

A billion watchmen steady through and through

Guard us when the night comes

And her eyes are no longer blue

I look into the pools of darkness

Longing to feel her pain

She never sleeps , or cries, or needs

So I fear my longing is in vain

When I kiss her lightly

She nods her head my way

And when the darkness is no longer there

I realize she will not stay.







Politically Correct


I gotta headache - crashin in my head

Gonna make it better- Pull the trigger now I am dead-

I don't believe in suicide - but aspirin does no good-

The crashin getting louder - I would stop it if I could-

The world is spinin around me - It shows no sign of slowin-

A million miles a second - that's how fast its goin-

No sign of the apocalypse - the world will never end-

It's hard to tell you what I mean- I am not sure where to begin-

I will tell you what I know - you might not understand-

I cannot tell you lies I guess - I'll make it as easy as I can-

I hate to tell you this my friend-

But the government has you fooled - please let me finish-

Keep your engines cooled-

I know you wont accept it - no matter what I say-

But if the government could - I am sure they would- Kill us all today.

Your vote ain't worth a damn - don't matter who you are-

After you pay taxes - your buck wont take you very far-

They tell you it's ok now - and everything is fine-

And though I hate to break it to you- They are just messing with your mind.

Most politicians smile a lot - I have noticed that before-

But you mean next to nothing- Unless you are a whore.

So on the next election day- When you are deciding whom to choose-

No matter who you pick or don't won't make them win or lose.

I hope I set you straight now- It was something I couldn't neglect-

I hope you are not offended- I am only being politically correct.



Damn society

Damn society

For saying I cannot be me

Damn society

For keeping you from me

Society says I cannot love you

Society says don't touch

To hell with society

Pious liars with their morals

Saintly bigots with their creeds

Society stitches quickly

But still its members bleed

All the hatred keeping us apart

Intolerant people

Who rant about tolerance

You say I cannot be different

You say I must conform

Damn society

For trying to decide the norm

Damn society

For giving love a name

Damn society

For pouring water on my flame.







A Metaphor

I struggle with my obsessive past

Never let shy delusions fall into our reality

Truth, fantasy, reason

Creativity can be beautiful

Who we are

Passion

Spirit

Dreams

To fear their high will only cloud my memory

Alas, life is over summer leaves

Dream of moons over the ocean

Surreal winter landscapes dissolved in lyrical rain

Reconcile! Or go beneath the earth

Among the wicked children

Who are thrown into the twilight.
