Somewhere in South End when you were fun
You took my hand and you made me run
Up past the prison to the seafront
You climbed the cliff edge and took the plunge
Why can't we laugh now like we did then?
How come I see you and ache instead?
How come you only look pleased in bed?
Let's climb the cliff edge and jump again

I know my words will dry upon the skin
Just like a name I remember hearing
Wild winter, warm coffee
Mom's gone, do you love me?
Blazing summer, cold coffee

What's the immaterial substance
That envelopes two,
That one perceives as hunger
And the other as food.
I wake in tangled covers,
To a sash of snow,
You dream in a cartoon garden,
I could never know.
Innocent imitation, you are cast in gold,
Your image a compensation for me to hold.
Parallel lines, move so fast,
Toward the same point,
Infinity is as near as it is far

Your prettiness is seeping through
Out from the dress I took from you
So pretty
And my emptiness is swollen shut
Always a wretch - I have become
So empty
And please, please don't leave me
I'm watching Naomi, full bloom
I'm hoping she will soon explode
Into one billion tastes and tunes
One billion angels come and hold her down
They could hold her down until she shines
I'm tasting Naomi's perfume
*It tastes like **** and I must say*
She comes and goes most afternoons
One billion lovers wave and love her now
They could love her now and so could I
There is no Naomi in view
She walks through Cambridge stocks and strolls
And if she only really knew
One billion angels could come and save her soul
They could save her soul until she shines
So pretty
And please, please don't leave me here.

Mama loves a mask
And if she’d only ask
The questions right
She’d know
Mama loves a mask
A girl inside a flask
Smoldering sleepless nights
Throwing crosses out the window
He could never lie
No he could only make me true
But they won’t understand the colors
Inside the brilliant mind that I call you
So please lay low, just smile
Play the game for now, beguile
Duplicitous and all the while
She loves me so
Mama loves a fairytale
The girl who’d never sin
Taking sips of ginger ale
Instead of shots of gin
Mama loves a fairytale
And once I loved her too
I never knew that when I’d think
I’d lose my mind and start to sink
And as I learned I grew
Out of the mask you made for me
You’ll love me someday soon

The sweetest sigh my breezy vow
To indicate the ways you love me how
Did the hours pass before us
While the waking world ignores us
Crumple up the faded sheets again
Let’s spend
All our income on the nights
We whispered soft in broken lights
And broken bottles don’t stand a chance
Baby dance

Oh the mind is too stubborn to let the heart go
It seems the less I believe,
The more that I fear
The things I don’t know
Yet the chaos resolved
Is less in my mind
Than the people around
The sight and the sound
Of this beautiful life

So does the rosy fire of the horizon fade into dull grey
While the trees out by the parking lot get greener with the rain

And I will take you and leave you alone
Watching spirals of white softly flow
over your eyelids and all you did
will wait until the point when you let go

graphite on canvas
I'm bent like this sheet
the damage subsides
Still the mark is complete
go **** what you find
in secrets behind
the labyrinth of all that is sweet
