Person 1: Fine day,

Wouldnt you say?


Person 2: Why yes I quite agree!


1: In the cold and barren winter

Through the late or early December 


2: And in July

The song of birds in the trees


1: Then you my friend 

Will agree with me then

It's always a pleasant day for tea?


2: Yes I'm quite fond of tea!


1: So I see! 

Between the years of yesterday 


2: and a thousand tomorrows 

To come this way 


1: there is only one today! 


2: Say how do you do

To those that you knew


1: Or adieu to those you may rue


2: We're getting off the topic

Wouldn't you say? 


1: Very well 

Well then

When life holds you bothered 

In the days of spring 


2: (Or in December)


1: Yes yes,  nevertheless you should always remember 


1&2: It is always a pleasant day for tea!

There is no mere exquisite beauty which is not mistaken for Madness

where keep thou thy place of lodge
within the eyes of the lord
beyond a master fair
a secret there is
the chosen few declare
among thine own brethren
whom, ere thou, a servant
work, thine own way of prayer
many know, tho  nay  hast knelt
in  thine own temple
where even solomon dwelt

Of the name for years
I have longed to call
"Child" has been justly kept.
All that I once Loved
I call my own.
Because I so well know
Of the Heavens above
The Angel's covet 
That which I lost.
And no other shows love
Than the love it never knew.
How thine beauty 
Is much of your own
Sainted Mother fair
Let no one steal
What life holds forfeit
Nor the soul that I have lost. 
Thus, to the life I never knew
As "Child"

You may hide under here
Or perhaps somewhere there
But do rid yourself
Of Momo's stare.
If it is on a page
Perhaps in a book
It's best not to find
And best not to look.
If you hear her name
It's good to not share
Do rid yourself of Momo's stare.
If you are able to see
Through her long dark hair
You will find the eyes
Protruding from every side
And every where.
She wears a smile from ear to ear
That is the way they describe her
At least that is what I hear
You must beware the glare
Of Momo's stare.

Take this life
I selflessly bestow
Upon the joy upon the sorrow
For dreams I have none to borrow 
And time I have not to spare! 
You are just, those who deem 
And those that see or those that seem 
That life is more than breath
And realms are more than dreams 

Dreaming is the fashion
And they hold their own passion
And hope after all is the thing
But if hope has gone before 
And journeyed long 
In a timely matter passing 
And the good days 
Have surpassed me 
In the forsaken days of Yore 
Has life in its favor
Been a mere misadventure?
Then life my friends is the theme 
And my thoughts are the thread 
Which grasps the seams of
My own dreams.

I peer through the world
With opened eyes and a complex mind.
There is a man much taller than I.
Long before the dawning light
He puts the razor to his face.
Every one experiences their first "cut"
My fathers words
echo throughout my mind,
"It is foolish to make
The same mistake twice
Expecting a different result."
Our joy of life forbids us
To be near the edge.
But you will not live a single day
If you dare not to make a single mistake.
We are but human.
We bleed, we share pain.
Without passion, we do not breathe.
On the Razors Edge, we learn to live.
