CAME BACK
24.7.05
come back
come and go
the waves roll heavy
from sea to sky
washing the beach
lapping back
to the sea and sky
from off a cliff
going to the sand
down, to the sea
falling
down below the sky
come back
come and go
come back again
clouds roll by
mirrored below
winds roaring
along the bay
up
on the quiet
mountaintop
down
on calm waters
over the sea and sky
on a tree dotted horizon
washed in rain
running on
to the sea
down
from the sky
from off a cliff
going to the sand
come back
come and go
come back
again.
THE CHOICE
I know I've seen that look before
so this must mean something
I was here once before , but in a dream
deja vu on the feelings inside
looking up, i don't remember the people
but I know I've played the scene
I'm looking for a word to say
'cause there's no sentiment in confusion
looking at the things around me
and wondering waht they are here for
I am faced with so many choices
I could get up and go back to where
I think I will be staying for a while
but the sunshine is so nice
and the breeze is so cool
I need a little time to think it over
because when it is time to choose
I don't want to pick the wrong door.
HARSH WORDS
idle hands
idle minds
turn idle time
into idle chatter
which breeds whispers
gossiped into rumours
turning the words viscious
they are drawing blood
demanding payment
for their services
then striking out
causing lament
hiding idle in corners
idle in closets
idle in waiting
never to idle in regret
