Title
Coco and Minnie Minie is Minnie Pitch black with amber eyes Two full moons on an autumn night Untamed and toiling with mischief Coco is Coco Smooth white with brilliant blue eyes Restless oceans of spontaneity As tempered as Neptune If they've taught me anything It's that I am out of control

My yin and yang
You can shame the lion For having claws When your bravery ends At your finger tips Who will you turn to When the fire dies When the wolves circle

The Den
You wouldn't cry If you needed To hold it in I can't begin to know Where your troubles Begin

Untitled
My eyes my eyes They tell me lies I know my ears Have failed For years The light shines on an elaborate illusion A prickly rose bush Of confusion From the pedals To the thorns Ignorance is torn I savored the sweet sent of roses An now find myself sinking Into the dust

Fade to black
Show me where the rainbow ends Where the colors fade Black and white begins Where is the line between the truth and a lie Whether your happy or sad You still cry Is knowledge an illusion An unobtainable thing We lack the first note Of a song we wish to sing Yet we dance about this rock we call home Singing away as if we were alone Two eyes so I can see But the blind know as much as me The mind is a house of locked doors Endless stairs and untouched floors

I probably wrote this drunk
Time will say nothing but I told you so, Time only knows the price we have to pay; If I could tell you I would let you know. If we should weep when clowns put on their show, If we should stumble when musicians play, Time will say nothing but I told you so. There are no fortunes to be told, although, Because I love you more than I can say, If I could tell you I would let you know. The winds must come from somewhere when they blow, There must be reasons why the leaves decay; Time will say nothing but I told you so. Perhaps the roses really want to grow, The vision seriously intends to stay; If I could tell you I would let you know. Suppose the lions all get up and go, And all the brooks and soldiers run away; Will Time say nothing but I told you so? If I could tell you I would let you know. -W. H. Auden

If I Could Tell You
I have read you A lifetime And all you heard Was yourself
