I need some anti-freeze for my knees
and all points North and South.
Plumbing into a thermal
gets my blood flowing
and I know that She's going
to join me.
Winds that whistle out of tune
and I'm going out to work very soon,
frightened I might blow away
scared of going out today
I could stay here and call in sick
mumps or measles, take your pick

but
no, I'll go and be a star
which will not get me very far
because
everyone's a star today
I wish that they'd all blow away
and leave me shining on my own,

changed my mind
I might stay at home.
In the afterlife which comes after life
will we still have to dress up on Sundays
or will those fun days
be behind us?

and will we still have to pray for Jesus
can't we just shout out of the window
and won't he hear us?

There's a lot that I can't understand
about the bible and the
Holy Land

I think I'll hedge my bets
Until Lot gets
a new wife.
Don't tell him
that you told me
about her,

but Facebook be like
Like and Share.

ps Facebook added the crazy emoji.

I want it so much that it burns
want to touch it so much that it turns my head.

Want to hang on that thread and I know it's perverse
I want to walk on the edge of the known universe.

Let me glide down the slide of humanity and see the stars as they appear to me, hold on to the rails of those cold comet trails and wander through all of eternity.

I want to see the empty page before history, watch the mystery of birth in infinity, crawl through a wormhole as if like a blind mole and see my soul being balanced by divinity.

In this cycle of rounds where the sky becomes ground, the beginning, the end where time starts to bend like moments we lend to the minutes that send us exploring in space.

I want to come face to the face that gave me the zest, that which gave sight to my eyes and sent me off on this quest of learning.

Still turning my head hanging on to a thread in the bed of a cataract where thoughts become abstract and reasoning keen.

This is where I will be seen and will see
all that I will ever be
or have ever been.
Her eyes gave me the answers to all of my..
..wise far beyond the years she has notched on her belt.
God only knows
and that one ain't telling
so
we squaddies get fell in
salute the guard
and cry all night
because life's so hard.

The thing is though
we all know that but we bat on
and finish the innings
winning's neither here nor there
it's
about where we are and being
happy with what we've got,

Let gods keep their secrets
we're better off not knowing.
