I once looked up at the stars and heavens / I was overcome with fear / That thing there is an endless void / Between me and it is nothing but air / And gravity / Thank heavens for gravity! / / (Check out my profile on Amazon.com and my book "The Philosophical God")
There in the hinterland
This people I know
Who love the sleeping sand
For its distant glow
A hut a hovel a house
The grinding of the glass
The hollow earth
And freedoms passed
Then lost.
They choo choo south
And boo hoo to any
Who try to close its hungry mouth

It's like actors
They don't act all their lives
They act when the camera is rolling
Or when they find themselves in the mud
I write love upon the hearts of men
And women thank me for my service
But when the seizure is over
The madness is lost in an exhale
And I transmute into the beast that I am
Only to extort another soul to place in my tragedy

Did you sign the contract indeed?
Indeed I did indeed.

Danny was a good boy
He kept his engine going
But he never found joy
He had many CDs
But he left them in a pile
He had a girlfriend
But he hasn't ****** the ****** in a while
So much for love
She threw him into exile
He was her toy
Her lover boy
The island fit him like a glove
He started to smile
Without her constant trail
He was a freeman
Setting sail
**** this love
He has music
Sad music
Doesn't have the same effect anymore
Die young drink a **** load
Oh boy death!

Embraced by the arms of solitude
Finally a lover who knows his soul
And he fell deep into sleep
Safe as pillows on a bed
Safe as houses
On clouds of marshmallow and honey
Dread has forsaken him
And there appeared a door behind his eyes
Opening it he found a vision
The dearest friend of lost souls
Soft ******* on which to lay the head
Venus
Supple Venus!
Madonna
Perched on the alter where he lost his youth
Bleeding
But healing
I have found you
You are my essence
I shall cherish your form
She woke

Twists and turns in the fire
Flowing energy the mind's desire
Every ember untouchable
My sadness is incorrigible
This is dire
From toppidy mountain to lowest inspire
The demons reach out
They know what my pain is about
To feel the hellfire
As I try to remember what I'm worth
Fetch some fire from the river
So we don't have to shiver
I'll burn before I freeze
Let guilt claim my liver

**** all blacks!
They said.
**** all whites!
They said.
So they invented surrealism.
It's not the contrast that matters.
They said.
It's the unexpected juxtaposition.

Sweet sherry and muskadel wine
From under the burnt pine
I taste your wintery comfort
As I gaze into this soul of mine
There I see old lovers smile
Whispering boldly as they beguile
Caress my heart from within
And pinprick stab the memory file
Where has she gone now?
Far far away awaiting my call.

I catch the monster in your heart
You catch yourself believing
It's the love I feel for you
That breaks the pain inside
That shakes the lonely night
That takes the hate beside
Shatters the illusion of ego
And unsettles like vertigo
The proud tower of love
But your touch is magic
Only when our fate is tragic
I have to make you see
You want to be free
Dominate me
**** me
Burn my body on the alter
Of love we shall taste forever
When I suffer
I still love you

On the cusp of the tongue
Lies the truth like song sung
Beyond the artful landscape
The gods on stone towers scrape
A name that summons
Humming angels of death
Much good may it do you
To know the heart of the lord
No sword nor love
Shall save you from the truth
The harbinger of sorrow
Like waves of fire shall
Consume the, shall
Swallow the, shall
Digest the vestiges of order
Until there is but one
The babe in the reeds
