deep in the back
where all the things you left reside
there's something lurking there
there's something to be shared
sleep while you can
and sleeping softly might i add
you'll dress the part again
still ropes and cardigan

Jitterbug & Jezebel

"These things come in time,"
Says old Jitterbug to Jezebel.
"Let's not lick at all of our wounds, dear,"
She says with smiling eyes.
These things seem to rhyme
Flip and turn the page on bitter spells
Well there's no sense arguing in her head
About things she won't even try
La la
(The creek was made narrow by little green trees that grew
too close together. The creek was like 12, 845 telephone
booths in a row with high Victorian ceilings and all the doors
taken off and all the backs of the booths knocked out.
Sometimes when I went fishing in there, I felt just like a
telephone repairman, even though I did not look like one.)
These things fall in line
Well then, soon enough she'll figure out
This life ain't all that she swoons for
But it ain't half bad at all
(I was only a kid covered with fishing tackle, but in some
strange way by going in there and catching a few trout, I
kept the telephones in service. I was an asset to society.
It was pleasant work, but at times it made me uneasy.
It could grow dark in there instantly when there were some
clouds in the sky and they worked their way onto the sun.)

Carrie, why don't you cover me?
Why don't you comfort me anymore?
And lately I feel some suffering
I hear "your lips don't bleed."
Through the door
Your kiss is all I need
Your kiss it sounds so sweet
Your kiss is all I need
It means so much to me

You must've crossed my mind a million times or more
I'll sit and lay out all your limbs across the floorboards
She'll trip and see the sailors strike their pose and then
Take pills for taking pills and taking pills again
In colors I can't see you mark the maps in cruder crayon
In pleasures and in pleading find the faithless with their fans
In taking it in hand I'll find my patience running thin
And, taking you for granted, won't be half as bad as then
(What you've wanted hard to please)
She combs her woolsop hair
And give her sickle cell smile
(So whisper something soft and sweet)
She won't be long out there
She won't be home for awhile

[Yesterday’s News]
Yesterday’s news spills out across my floor
A headline hustler crossed my door
And as the daily sun begins the rays spread thin across my room
And in a haze of drunken fumes we’ll find the holy son exhumed
Little things weigh on your mind
Never here nor far
Think awhile and take your time
Here we are
Yesterday’s blues left and danced across the hall
Trip the light I found them small
And when the postal-men rush in they’ll find their work upon the floor
Well I implore you to be kind when little things weigh on your mind
Atonality I find never here nor far
This tonality in mind here we are
[Pretty Things]
(La-las)
“Please, don’t go!”
She says, but I’m in tow
She waits for pretty things to fall
Into her lap, her beck and call
And I don’t buy the things she tries
“Please, I beg”
She said, but in my head
I know it’s much too late for pleas
For sorry eyes and brittle knees
And I don’t buy the things she tries
And I won't pray to see the day
She comes back to my arms
(La-las)

it's in me aching
some fools pain
no hearts are breaking
no love been strained
some touch of your hand
the gnash of teeth
you'll rend it out of reach
can you feel inside me
some fools pain?
radiations winding
beside the vein
strike a light, flame, lanterns
to burn my reign
it's pouring out of me

simmer
it feels like you should be aware
sit me up
for a time
sit me down
limber
you paint your teeth to match your hair
taking up your time
peeling forks for tines
again
sister
one look that you would want to share
look me up
for a time
looking down
