Divinity of the day, how true and overwhelming But that’s alright, you’ve given me sight God, that enthralled Lush, sunset boulevard torch A west Hollywood Rimbaud Scammed and scorched, running, but still breathing New age wild west muse Like midnight’s request for sweetness as music and dreams A rageling songstress on the longest roadway, sacrificing my best If I give you all my songs will you feel alright, lush Take me for all that I am? That much, run with the immense Learning everything, even how to bless With my roadhouse sheetmusic illustrating my life’s inspiration adorned walls, sad ending I was lost but playing it off, until my racing heart reached Time future and said, soul, believe what’s in store, Outrageous dose Beaming with strange and frightening beauty From chasing the lights that ascent into the heavens Dreamy, daring, absurdly hoping, all the real claiming Lord knows, I’m enamored with the purely copper arrows Aimed at heights, long and lonely paths for the Songs of death, of life, wilderness and good times With my diamond focus On the garden path of the wise, open, aware Just walking thru, even confused, you mean My images of paradise were drawn in diamond too? Permanent as the myths, legends, poetry?

HE (10W)
Oh, what a suit; what fine noble thread, below blinding pearly whites and such a nice hair of head. "Lose a little now to gain twice as much later. Don't be a dope," (schmuck, fool, sucker.) That's what he said through sharpened teeth. I should've known better than to believe a single thing. A wolf invited himself inside and talked me into buying his sheepskin suit, but it turns out that he was a fox disguised as a wolf in sheep's clothing, and so I bought the wolf's skin too. "A two-for-one deal, whaddaya say?" I can't believe I fell for a walking cliché.
