Summer song

Something super happy:) for a change.

Mommy

Mommy doesn't quite pay attention.
She says I'm grown up, a women.
She says I am thrilling, sexual, a breasted dancer.

No mommy. I'm the pale swan,
I'm the silver raindrop, I'm the calmest lake.
But, mommy doesn't quite pay attention.

So, maybe to mommy I'm the metallic taste,
the viscious snake, the reddest lace.
But, mommy doesn't see that the wolves take me.

The wolves drove me to unvieled point.
They made me naughty and ate my body.
Mommy wants to be rid of this heathen sinner, this mucky image.

Well, mommy be rid of me!
Throw me in the well.
But do not let the wolves in for they won't let me drown.

Pay attention mommy!
I'm the golden lock, I'm the ivory tusk, I'm the angels wing.
I am not what mommy thinks.

Elegy for the green from false rings

Oh puddling, squaddling sugar tins

With stars in jars that burn and spin

and canes of sugar, beets and pearl

You’ve gone to limits lost the world

Of days in August, hot and moist

And shining water’s misty voice

You slid the upper, stayed the low

And what’s the silver got to show?

I lost my nails in World War II

Oh stay my fake, I stayed with you

You tricked the smith and stayed for show

Oh tell me darling where’d you go?

All that you taught me

I’m under the tree of the honest and true

I’m put here to learn things of Latin and spin

I’m put here to learn things of reason or sin

You gave me the book of the wise and the new

I’m inside the tree of the wishes and goals

I’ll sit in the shadows of Sickle and Sam

I’ll sew in the cottage, the wife and the lamb

I’ll climb up the ladder, the posts and the poles

I’m tippity top to the branches and high

I’ll learn of the world through searching above

I’ll find all the answers through hatred and love

I’ll jump into blue and float through the sky

The learnt is below me in jumbles of pools

The lessons you taught me are lessons for fools

The sins you swallowed

You lived in the fire, the grass, and the snow

You lived in the cages, the stars and the sea

You lived in the honest, the fake and the pure

You lived in the captive, the spring and the child

You dressed in the dresser the damned naked fish

You swam in the singer, the lines on the page

You pushed till she swung into dosies and jigs

You climbed him to higher, the unfolded leg

You rang to the boss on his sex covered desk

You walked in the line of a swallowing sea

You died for the life, and you died on the cross

Freaks

A spitting, hissing, drooling mess

Locked in a box, a man in a dress

Her hair covered body, her thick coffee fur

She’s caged and she’s looked at, she’s perfect and pure

Two born together born tied at the hip

They’ll both go down if one should slip

But their minds are two separates, their music is grand

One sells the circus please give her a hand

Lionel the lion with 6 inches face

Wears handsome suits, speaking fluent with grace

The man with no arms who played strings for Strauss

Left the orchestra to afford a house

A spitting, hissing, drooling mess

Locked in a box, a man in a dress

Take Me

Take me to your hidden city with the bright blue lights

And the reflections of the purple past and present leaning against the walls

Place me upon the building tops exposed for all the people in the mirrored walls

Make love to me on the top of the top

And on the bottom of the bottom

And make me scream for the entire blue city to hear

Dance me on your dresser

And sing me on your floor

Let the cars drive fast past our little indigo secret

Take me to your hidden city with the bright blue lights

And forbid the sun to shine

Or the world will see blue through the thin curtain

100 years ago

100 years ago we were trees

You an oak, and I a willow

And how we grew together

Entwining our thousand branches

Do you remember my blossoms?

I gave you each one

And you the strong oak

Sheltered me

Do you remember our life together?

Our lives that shook in the storm

But remained rooted in the ground

And even our roots took the time to knit together

Do you remember the rain?

And how it ran across us

And soothed our parched insides

Each ring soaking up glory

Do you remember how I lifted my arms?

How I lifted my arms and covered you

I covered you from the worst of it

And lost a million blooms

Do you remember the lovers?

Who sat under our shade and kissed for us

And how they climbed upon us

and made love within our arms

100 years ago we were trees

You an oak, and I a willow

And how we grew together

Do you remember?

Something sexual

Love me, love me open sea man

Kiss my forehead, hold me close

Sail me to the lonely island

Cross the sea upon your boat

Hoist the sails and fire the cannon

Place your hand upon my spine

Fight the storm and ride the blue stretch

Float me softly through the sky

I’m lonely lover, why’d you leave me?

On the island all alone

Take me angel from the island

Sail to me and bring me home

My Love

I wandered outside of my home, my love

I wandered outside of my home

And though you forbid me to roam, my love

I felt that I still had to roam

I burst through the walk and the flight, my dear

I screamed through the night and the cold

I screamed out in love and I screamed out in fear

I grew into withered and old

You tell me the morning will come, sweet one

You say it will get better soon

And all I can do is to pray and run

Run for The Son and the moon

I fell to my knees and I begged for you

I prayed that my life would be fair

And God told my heart to stay true to you

And I felt his words in the air

I hide in the depths of my empty bed

I hide from the monsters of night

I sink into white and I lose my red

You showered my body in light

Teacher

I’m watching you teacher

I’m watching you teach me

I know all the lessons you teach

You speak of the lovers

Turned father and mother

A baby washed up on the beach

I’ve learned of the lovers

The father and mother

Whose baby washed up on the beach

You taught me my brother

the honest, the other

You taught me all there is to teach
