Imperfect

You can’t tell me how you feel
But motions do reveal
I know there’s something more
My world with red days so surreal
Cannot help but deal
But without you I am lost

Fervently holding on to you
Imperfect but calling out to you
There’s no place...none other

I never ever can believe
The heavens can relieve
An angel for a goblin
But still, like life’s reasons can’t conceal
Like the heart can’t help but feel
Someone like you I found

Fervently holding on to you
Imperfect but calling out to you
There’s no place...none other

Ray Gun

Golden afternoon sun I could recall
Busy street down your porch I could see them all

The TV calls with my favorite channel on
Shadows from your window on your bed they dance upon

Can I stop the clock from ticking away
Hoping to have chains strong enough to pin down the day

To stay forever in your warm embrace
Under your spell…a wonderful daze

Shooting Star

Songs like time machines

Bring you back

Lightyears down your universe

Spinning down the wormholes

Whirling up vortices

Like a wind inside a letterbox

It scatters correspondences

Drenching sentences into blots

That collapse into a supermass of thought

Pulsing and gyrating

And exploding into nothingness

Like songs like time machines

Control

The lights blink fast when you know you’re losing control
Seatbelts like stoplights fade away
Like street maps and road flares
Hazy lights beckon you when you know you’ve lost control

Gray looks like a wonderful color when you know you’re losing control
Twilights never looked so brighter
Midnights never looked so youthful
When dreams tell you that you’re not in control

Rattlesnakes and scorpions smile when you know you’re losing control
Cold becomes colder
As the lights become brighter
Reason won't show when you know you’ve lost control

Traffic

Left in a glaring daze
Like a trickle of mercury rolling down my mind’s maze
Thoughts alighting in a speeding car
Wounds my melancholic heart
An image, a building, a vision from a distance
Sharpens the point of an unmerciful and dreadful lance
As tears they fall down and drown into the darkness
Like broken gifts offered to the laughing gods of hopelessness
As I call out to the thunder and the rain
To strike out this unbearable pain

A Pariah in a Leper's Eye

I am your monster
A big black spider crawling on your hand
A broken glass bottle sticking out in the sand
I am your fear
A body in your basement
A sinking ship...
...a panic look...a dying moment
I am your discomfort
A bad joke told on a rainy funeral day
A bad comment...an ill prepared play
I am your confusion
A vandalized street sign
A crooked path...a road to nowhere...a broken line
I am your nemesis
Your worse nightmare...like a dark shadow I loom
A herald of darkness..destroyer of hopes and dreams...
...an object of doom
I am he who you burn
A pariah from your principles
A leper of logic..unable to discern
I am you who you stone
I am inside you shackled in your mind
Hidden, ignored sitting all alone
