Stubborn Clay oozes through my toes as I run the gauntlet.
The hounds bark echoes through the jangle and  clank of my shackles.

Desperation reeling me in now heavy like lead.

Long ways to go redemption pulling me along.

I fell from the sky I fell
From grace.
I fell knee deep
I fell in disgrace.

Losing not. So bad.
Losing's all I. Had

This dream is grainy and vivid. feeling every scratch and blow
This version feels like winning but I dreamed   this way before.
Well , no worries  a psychic reboot and play it all again .

Play it again,
Play it again. Play.

Solid ground sweltering heat
Heavy tangles .Giant shade.
I think you got it made.

Fade to green,to brown
To black.                           To black.  To Black   To black.

In the chilly hours and minutes
Of uncertainty,I. Want to be
In the warm hold
Of your loving mind

To feel you all around me
And to take your hand,
Along the sand.

Ah,but I. May as well
Try and catch the wind.

When sundown pales the sky
I want to hide a while,
Behind your smile and everwhere l'd look,
Your eyes i'd find.

For me to love you now
Would be the sweetest thing
That would make me sing.

Ah,but I may as well,try and catch the wind.

When the rain has hung the leaves with tears
I want you near, to **** my fears.
To help me leave all my blues behind.

For standin,in your heart
Is where I longto be, and all along to be .

Ah,but I may as well ,try and catch the wind.

Ah,  but I may as well , try and catch the wind

Whoo Whoo
The train I ride on draws the lightening from the sky
No matter where  go Like a curse of fire.
I cant find peace and comfort so I ride the rails and cry.

First one place then the other drawing lightening from the sky.
No place to rest my weary head as the stones come tumbling down.
I cant find peace or comfort so I ride the rails and cry.
Like a curse of fire.

A curse of fire that dog yapping at my heels
who can feel my pain Nowhere to rest my muddled mind
Like a hound dog with the scent just  yapping at my heel.
Next train.

Double back and cross my track I run through water
Head for high ground. I pray to stay awhile but
lightening in the distance touching ground
Like a curse of fire.
next train.
Whoo. Whoo.

I cannot abide the horrors in the hours when the coming day
Shouts and pulls at yesterday and derides him for a job poorly done
Leaving unfinished business on the table.

                                                         ­     Scraps and bones
                                                           ­   Tatterd sinew.
                                                          ­    Skin.
                                                       ­       Poor execution has left tomorrow
                                                        ­      With rotting clutter. Hear him
                                                              Mu­tter.
Not at rest fully now surfacing psyche able to stir
after corps-like slumber  judgement at the ready.
Shake the foreboding feeling
walking
through a graveyard something inches from my back
Grinning at my ignorance.
Pondering surprise.
Wake up and push the stone uphill
wake up and take your pill.

Just don't blurt.

Hold on. I won't.

Money is the motive.

I used to be able to tell. Oh
Hell.
