Seasons
Winter fades as spring melts
Distant snow like gleaming candles
Waiting feverishly for
Golden flames of sunlight
Dancing in the summer sun
Racing clouds nod to
Gleeful birds gliding naked and mating
Straddled to wet and swooning trees
Delirious with laughter and primal need
While butterflies fly sweetly
Soft as breath on stone
Cool ice melting fingers

Before the Enemy Comes
They treat our tears with
Contempt
Hand in hand with
Greedy frustration
They roar like lions and
Block all roads to
Equality
They trespass on us
Night and day
Creating for their
Conscience a
Mocking symbol to
Love’s power
Masked creators
Who conjure their lives
On torn pieces of paper
Our kings and queens
Can never be conquered

Here Shines
Here shines
The dream that binds
The hopes
Given to you
That hears a voice
And runs to find
That shadows

For something new
Run to and fro
And back again
To find it all
In you
Here waits
The tender kiss
Within
Veiled spirits cry
A whisper
Of a certain truth
That love ...

You Made Me Feel Funny
i trusted you
when you said you'd take care of me
and you'd never make me cry
but you took my little hand
and made me touch you
you made me feel funny
i loved you
'cause i was only five
and you took my little hand
and walked me up the stairs
to play a baby game
that you said i would like
but you made me feel funny
i believed you
when you told me ...

Wounded Flowers
Hear the shuffled footsteps drag upon the cold alone
Looking for a distant stone an ancient memory
Dryness caked upon the ground with lives that never were
Looking for a trace of wounded flowers
Rows of dying blossoms dripping open in the rain
Satyrs running naked in the summer nights of love
Cracked and dripping idols close their eyes against the pain
Blinded aged still ...
