Sitting on a hilltop, a Bard
At my back; Said I to the Bard: What
Illusion is that?
The Bard turned to see a river of
Fire;
Coursing and raging toward the
Sea of Desire.
Said . . .

Got lost in a dream once,
So I wandered under the blue, the great
Iris of sky, across
Green tinted blades and celery-colored
Goliaths; listening
To the sound of the wind as she
Sang.
A golden . . .

Her eyes were like the bottom of a glass of cognac...
Straight up, with no rocks, no
Distractions from the dark swirls of her mystery.
Her scent was cinnamon and crushed petals of
African violets, . . .

I once knew a poetry girl
At night she'd come and sing to me
Her words were like the finest pearls
The verses she'd whisper softly
Our poetry would intertwine

Across seas not known to man
On some uncharted strip of land
That is where you can find me
Resting ‘neath my poetry
It bears fruit from words I speak
Some are bitter, some are sweet

Iron Maiden, Iron Maiden
So lovely and fair
A crown of swords tangled
In your burnished hair
Tell me, my radiant one
Why you must be

Far too long
I've been away
Without the music that I play
Now I find
It's time to end
Without warning I rise again
Too long I've . . .

I look at the world through red-rimmed eyes
Because I can't afford to sleep
I walk through the world in a disguise
Because I can't afford to weep
I am always a minute . . .

I have held this far too long
Now I'm almost far too gone
I feel I can no longer hide
The pain and sorrow deep inside
It breaks free from deep within
Flows from my heart to . . .

Truer words were never spoken
Except the words I left unsaid
And a true heart is never broken
Only the one I left for dead
True beauty can never be seen . . .

It is raining in the jungle
Upon the bright green canopy
The rain slides down the leaves and branches
To fall and spatter upon me
It is hot up in the jungle
Despite the rush of pouring . . .

My imagination shatters
All the reasoning that matters
And streaks toward the infinite
Past atmospheric confinement
My mind's eye sees past dimensions

It was in her starlit eyes
The love she had stored up for me
But I'd already turned away
Convinced that we weren't meant to be
Spring showers misted on this scene
Like tears . . .

I look into my mind and see
Lost films of pastime memory
And like a mad director I
Edit and cut to satisfy
The images I want to see
A love story of you and me
I snip away the arguments . . .

Sometimes unexpectedly
I am stabbed by thoughts of you
Blanketed regretfully
By emotion’s residue
It seems I cannot escape
These feelings that pour down like rain
So reluctantly I contemplate . . .

I was alone when lightning struck
When her eyes looked in mine
And the world seemed to have stopped
As if we had frozen time
And in that suspended moment
I saw the life that's . . .

On these glittering black shores
I finally exhale at last
I finally gather the strength
To release my trying past
Far too long I have suffered
In the shade of my downfall

Once I thought to be in love
Once I had someone love me
When I was young and unaware
Of how fragile true love could be
Once I broke a young girl's heart
By carelessly . . .

Hidden Tigress on the hill
Lying so completely still
Golden eyes peer from the grass
As you watch your prey go past
Safe they are, for you hunt not
Relaxed in your secluded spot

My pixie friend visits at night
Glowing with her inner light
I look forward to her visits
Her resting on my fingertips
It is I alone she trusts
With her magic pixie dust
