I spied a rabbit in the rain He froze in my presence Wondering if ****** was my aim And I thought about his lot in life Was he far from home? Or was a warm, dry place near? Could his belly be full? Did he know the pain of hunger? I terrified him Though I did not try His heart beat faster as he ran While I sighed and went inside I just sighed and went inside

Rabbit in the Rain
You need a compression Of the mind You need effemeral To hide your signs Stop their intrusion In your special brain Control your alphawaves In the psychic sparring room A telepathic link Can slow his heart Or with wrath You can blow his head apart *"My art My art keeps me sane... My art..."*

I asked the old man, "What age are you in dreams?" The man, now 93, said "19" In dreams we create scenes From our own archeives For better or worse In terror and triumph They are inside our minds I can see myself how I want to be I can see things they can't see But, Lo! The horrors I have Are just as great

In a moment of intimacy We exchanged pleasantries When the vibe was ready I spoke a rememberance When I thought you were gone Forever my guard was dead But that sweet pastel feeling Found its way in me again You've got that kind of power And you know where we end Pick it up like hot lead Without saying what was dead

Like Hot Lead
Cloaked in pedals Tame the energy Sweeping and striking Bending in time In repetition of truth Truth is revealed Veins of metal Break the brain seal Cloaked in effects Wield electric whips Sqeezing my mind 'Til my fingers drip

Cloaked
I'm dressed as drab as the sky With the sun soaking wet I breathe out a sigh In a room alone But with a second set of my eyes He sits here and I sit there Our eyes refuse to meet One of us is right, you know It's just a question of when we'll see I'll let him hang around for now And think what he wants to think Because I know I'm fine Even if he's on the brink

Duel
He was your silver medal A consolation prize in my eyes Nowhere near the best you can do And you knew it to Now in your days of freedom With blood and sweat in your pen The gold medal is just out of reach Or so it seems again What worked on all the rest Won't melt the heart in a golden chest For he knows all of your crimes this time And you know them to It must be strange trying to prove yourself In a life spent feeling proven What's worse is knowing anyone but me Will be your silver medal

Silver Medal
Most women have three to five Three to five men to choose from One or two at work Two or three when at play She doesn't have to try All five are a wink or a nod away They remain in wait to get laid And she holds all the power Some women don't realize their strength They seem to have not a clue At least that's what they want you to think When you're not their chosen one But, I know full well They can have their pick of three to five Three to five men Some who've waited a long time to be chosen By the one who holds real conrol

Three to Five
When we first met They said you were a ***** And I didn't believe them You seemed intelligent (Well, intelligent enough) The days of silence between us Grew to weeks and months I was almost done Chewing on thoughts of you How pathetic of me (Why?) Because you're a **** Truly a disgrace to your gender A waste of my time A smile meets my face When I know You'll wake crusted over With a man who couldn't care less for you

Stringer
Siren song, pull me past the silt Guide my body beneath continents of ice I need to swoon in every sea Never encased by earth Take flight beneath the current Assimilate with the sky One in the same Cremate tonight Churn with the waves by day Stagnate with the fog at dusk Drift and whip wild with smoke by night To be elemental To be the wind on their lips When they whisper… “immortal” No earth-bound monument to my name No stone to stir remembrance                                         I will be worthy of memory Let me absorb into a landscape scenery
