Upon the whispers of those first days and nights,
Hushed sounds of the tales the mighty moon recites,
Each night, as if, singing through its misty silent voice,
Its lore, like a newborn stream, with our ear toys.


You and I, I know, have heard this hymn once and more,
For oft have we wondered who in blue sings, and what for,
I know, because a tear I have seen in your eyes and you in mine,
While for hours in embrace, you and I have lovingly reclined.


O' hear my words. You; my wonder, my reason, my fate,
You, with your deer eyes, who have casually opened up a gate,
Shut so tight, that within me it was, I forgot it lay,
O' hear my words. You; my heart, my mind; hear today.


Once was there a garden in the center of all space,
It was tended by Adam while its scent Eve trace,
Each dawn unto dusk in delight they would snuggle and play,
Every fruit and tree in love, each light a glorious day.


Such then the lore extends; that it moistens and weakens my heart,
But, alas, if you witness, you hear some hope lingering in part.
A dewy dark night, an angel, through the center of the garden snuck,
And pawned and played upon innocent Eve and her lost luck.


The serpent with his guile approached the fair maiden to destroy,
With a slithering ravaging tongue to plot her fall was his wretched ploy.
He won. His vow complete. He shattered the garden to its feet,
And all things sighed and sank, as Eve fell from nature's seat.


With white lips the moon has sung this lore of eons, through,
While waiting ever so patiently for the two he once knew,
For their return he has with empty fingers awaited in the sky,
While in his silent heart, singing, the hymn he has cried.


"O' my love, my surprise, hear the tale of this undivided heart,
for in our eternal curse we shall never thus part,
Even if you fall from the garden, or me, the serpent beguile,
With your soul I fall, and you, forever with mine."


Thus spake Adam and plunged afore-with into the abysmal void,
His action, his reason; his alone, not one by serpent soiled,
Alas! He knew; not even a garden filled with eternal space,
could ever have changed his heart or taken her place.


Fearlessly to be punished with the same abhorring decree,
Their souls to be eternally tortured, but their hearts to be free.
Did Adam thus accept without question a most dark destiny,
For an affection that was hers, for a love that was again never to be.


It was this song from the moon that surged through my being,
Once that you and I had lain; in one night the world we had seen,
The lore like a thousand mountains from a cloud did reveal,
Undid my lonesome heart and like a Titan made me feel.


O' how now do I define how playful chance can play its tricks,
Sometimes in zest, yet sometimes in anger; spits.
I pray, you, first flower of the garden of all space; you recognize,
That once that we have fallen, mortality is our prize.


When, to plunge with you into the abyss, I would never deny,
A chance to embrace you through eternity, I would never defy.
You, O' gentle one, O' Eve of the my hearts eternal space,
My wish is to hold your hand and walk, through, all eternal trace.


"O' true wisdom, O' illuminating surprise,
I here surrender to you in absolute reverence."

Magic with your two tall feet
Whistling with your stormy eyes
Do you ever remember me?
Does your ear ever hear my cries?

Long gone and far, far away
Swimming upon the highest tide
Does you heart still beat for me?
Do your eyes still seek my eyes?

Magic with your slender fingers
Singing with your luscious lips
Do you ever remember me?
Does your ear even hear my cries?

Where is the promised place to hide?
Between his two part soul
Is the great divide.

What if;
Colors were flowers
And flowers were men
And men could swim to the sun?


Would it
Then be
Any different, would we
Still have,
Bombs and guns?


What if;
We were
The winds and waters
That cover this illuminant earth?


Would it
Then be
That we
Would fall
To berths that haven’t taken birth?


What if;
Tears
Had meanings and wisdom
And lips that spoke the truth absolute?


Would it
Then happen
That wars
And darkness
We spread for glory, we would mute?


What if;
The stars were hungry
And extraterrestrials
Our friends, and met us one day?


Would it
Then matter
What race
Or creed,
Or random colors our shadows went astray?

She stabs him in his ribs
And lightly licks his lips.
Oh! wild lust,
Your venom is my blood.

He is scared of the ocean
Thoughts out of place and reason
Harder he beats his arms
Slower his mind in desperation.

Lonely Mister Ace of Spades, don’t deny it
You have tried so hard to fail
You know you’ve tried it


Perhaps you should have taken a different color
What with a heart that’s black
Now you just want to hide it


But no one told you where you were headed
No one cared to ask what you wanted
So now you just helplessly fight it


They set the rules without your knowing
Spread the deck on the table glowing
And among cheer and laughter sliced it


You wish every time so hard you wouldn’t win
Your hand so evil the game it always wouldn’t spin
But you just fail every time you try it


In this deck of falling cards, where nothing remains
You wish a hand to hold you had, but it pains
And every night you just mop and cry it


You dream the Red Queen, her smile on you would clean
It never will work, there is a King
It’s just a dream no matter how you apply it


Think about it lonely Mister Ace of Spades, think about it
When winning is not the prize itself
Just an excuse to pack cards and hide it


Perhaps you should tell yourself that it’s just a game
No one ever won a hand, it’s just all the same
But it won’t work because you’ll never find it


Lonely Mister Ace of Spades, don’t deny it
You have tried so hard to fail
You know you’ve tried it


Perhaps you should have taken a different color
What with a heart that’s black
Now you just want to hide it
