I chew my cheeks
As dragnets drag
Yin and ****** yang
The love of the never man

The air is thick with karma
Calling beneath the blockade floor
Should the world fail to fall apart
He desperately looks for the door

Of Dali’s car, his silent self
A war without a war within
Time has got nothing to do with it
She killed his past with her kiss

Like Orphee in some thunder world
Nothing lasts and **** to change
Sashed and shorn
Hallowed be her name

With her sunken eyes and her pretty looks
All the nights we’ll see them through
The seven veils of the mind
To the seven of cups, tethered to you

Through the zero hour we’ll walk
Oh let me love you in the morning light
Your away tonight as the art on the box cuts
Let go all the tears of your life

Till the sun bursts from your side
As we kiss the water kings hand
The passion of lovers is for death she said
To remind me of a perfect plan

Incandescent souls

Lamenting the days end
Ocular endeavor
Vernacular transcends
East and west of Eden

Yon hill beyond the down
Our dialogue continues
Unabashed

Innermost thoughts

Lasting a million years
Overt hemispheres
Visions remaining clear
Everlong and meaningful

You are every reason
Only you and you only
Until the end of time

The indelible mark
Not to be taken away
You left me alone
I remember the day
Words in stone
That you engraved
Are framed forever
And on display
Marquee stains
My love betrayed
The sun goes down
Without delay
The stage is set
In your play for today
Casting call
As you portrayed
My tears they fall
In a steady cascade
Nightmares loom
In twilights shade
All night long
Another masquerade
Now well aware
Of your wicked ways
Belladonna’s false Personna
Blinded by your Soft Parade
Now my heart
To my dismay
In pieces all
Forsoon decay
Awaken shaken
Love forsaken
Forever and always
My rainbows fade

Seaside sway
A lighthouse in the distance
The high water mark
Where the perfect wave breaks
Then rolls away
Abiding the tide
Returning to the fray
After collecting  sand castles
Under the crescent moon

Jackson said, “I’m late for the sky!”
Mr Mojo Risin was way up high
Jimi and Janis went along for the ride
Cass brought a sandwich but no one knows why
More and more from the canyon store
Were knock knock knockin’ on heavens door
Supplanted from as far as the Eastern shore
Kerouac and Ginsberg found a spot on the floor
Miller and Kesey would soon descend
The Cuckoo’s Nest was owned by a friend  
Frank arranged an invitation to extend
Even the youngest Beach Boy would attend
Jerry soon came down from the bay
Via Terrapin Station riding Dennis’s wave
The only one not here was Dave
Cause in New York is where Ziggy stayed
Frey left the Motor City schemin’
For Phillips’s take on California Dreamin’
No one ever thought of leavin’
When Dusty sang, “In the cool of the evenin’”
Our House is a magical place
The memories put a smile on your face
They’ll  never take away the Leather and Lace
Because Laurel Canyon has unlimited space

The water below
The ebb and flow
The timeless old attraction
The blue and cold
The realms unfold
The rush from the protraction
The crashing tide
The deep and wide
The wave bent by refraction
The raging storm
The droplets form
The colorful reaction
The clouds pass by
The latent sky
The hues are called to action
The dreamers dream
The light it beams
The ultimate satisfaction
