Foreshadow

The pain hurts
his eyes are leaves
Crisp like the morning
air
A ship
wrecked
off shore
along
the eastern sea line
Huts built
off the wreckage
The moon full of answers
The earth questions
Seaweed I say
As it pours out my ears
Im fog unveiling
I was unborn
before
Now evaporated
This eternal cycle
Im not of this earth
nore for it
Let me go I say
to def stones
The pain hurts
Full circle

Requiem

I was walking down that road again,
Yeah you know which one
I met this girl with bleeding feet
Her anchles didnt meet
In her eyes I could see the beauty of the beast

Her torso shone like cities congregating into one
Her neck rose above the night
her fingers lit her mouth alight
like memories of things to come
tonight
In her eyes I could see the beauty of the beast

Behind her back where autumn leafs fell
and tears in her track
I could smell
Her hair drawn back, parted in despair
Her bossom bounced of youth
Like some unspoken truth
In her eyes I could see the beauty of the beast

I've lost her now, her scent, her neck, her face
I've lost the water source to the entire human race!
But late or early morning sting
I can still recall her smile, her trace, her thing
How
In her eyes I could see the beauty of the beast

Wildfire

The city is alive with wildfire
and multi colored light bulbs
The fire is alive with the city
and the color of sounds

There is a gateway and I've passed it
through a tunnel of red flesh and light
And you're here cause you need to tattoo
someone's ass with:"the invincibility of punk!"
and I'm here cause I need to want you!

And the prostitutes are alit and the air smells
a sweet breeze of fresh cunt
And there's a flower blooming
and it will fade soon but not tonight!

Tonight the walls sing to the tones
and the sky kiss the grounds
and the echo of feet singing
the words: "Hallelujah"
like there was no tomorrow!

In Stone

I look at you
They dont know
As you lie
aimless, resting
in time and space
against
that black marble
what you are capable of

But I do

You seem dead to some
useless to others
But its the silent ones
you have to look out for

Your power is dormant
Your respect endless
like eternal night
Many a man have tried to lift
you from that stone

Just to resign
into hard labour
and binge drinking

You lie there, serene
black against black
Biding your time
Your ink harmless to the fool
a poison in the hands of others

Ink that start wars and end harts
Ink that bring grown men to tears
and send women into hard labour

But you resist
the temptation of pride

Saving yourself for the one
Who can lift you
from that stone
And write poetry

Weather Report

An unidentified frequency
has infiltrated the system
vibrations are felt
throughout the central nervous system
and there's been reports of tremblings of
up to 7.2 on the Richter scale

Emergency vehicles have been deployed
and are approaching the disaster zone
as we speak

No need for alarm
every necessary precosioun
has been taken as
your safety is our main concern
and the situation will be dealt with
forthwith

Fires are reported to have erupted
spontaneously
across the lower forest area,
sending thick smoke and ash,
heading towards
the continental mainland

Geishers are predicted
to break out
in the hot
lava zone momentarily

We ask you to please remain seated,
as this is only a test
although lava eruptions are now seen,
flooding from the
cave opening
of the mountain top

And as some of you have already noted,
there is a storm approaching

Rain is falling, somewhat cooling,
most of the forest fire outbreaks,
but it's to little, to late and far
from enough to cool the system down

We have deployed the national guard,
they report, however,
that their hands are tied

Volunteers have rushed to the scene
yet no one seems to be able
to offer a solution

Cracks have opened below the Virginia falls
And Mary's grave have caved in

Flashes of lightning
have hit the lower torso
and the sounds of laughter
are reassuring

He reports the lady is fine,
under the circumstances,
She's just catching her breath,
and is apparently up for more

Fallen Angel

Forgive me lord, for I have sinned
Its cold outside, its cold within
Its been so long
Dont even know where to begin
I've stolen from the poor
Eaten with the rich
I have laid down with a whore
Its hard, its hard to remember which
I have chopped ribs of men
With no backbone
Brought lambs to slaughter
And saw them turn to stone
I have dug to deep
Climbed to high
But the closer I got
The bigger the fucking lie
Lost more games than I can recall
I have had and lost
And sometimes, lord,
Its better not to have had at all
Dont bite the fruit
If you dont like the root
I have children, lord, I haven't even met
Im sorry lord, just no regrets
Its not me, honest, the world is just not my scene
I have run faster than time itself
Just to reach the bottom shelf
I have called out your name in vain
Watched misfortunes fall harder than pain
But I like it lord
I like it much
The lyin, cheatin, stealin, lord
Am I out of touch?
I am human lord this is my crime
You made me yours
Just didnt give me time
So forgive me lord
I feel your grace
Forgive me lord
Its just not in your face
I will slap you Lord
For the things you've done
You made me yours
Look what I've become
From womb to womb
I wander cross this earth
Til you close the day
Treat me just like dirt
So forgive me lord
For what Im about to do
Gonna sin some more
This time its on you!

Warfare

Im not here to win
Im here to begin
Im not here to conquer
Im here to lay
My arms, Diana, in your mist

Like the night breathes to a new beginning
From womb to womb
Wanders the day

And with sleepless eyes
As she offers the settlement of another dawn
I grab my sword
The insult of another day is at hand

How Can I Describe?

How can you explain the depths of a soul
or the wildness of an ocean
to one
that's never swam it?

How can you recall a breath of fresh air
to a man who hasn't spent his life in filth?

How can your replay the sound of time
stopping

..........

How show how a picture will never be the same again?

How do you describe food, now that it's lost its flavour?

How can I convey her eyes to you,
who never saw them?

How can I describe love,
lost?
