Lay back Let it happen
Remember to breathe
crossing
that twitch before
dyings itch
Gasping
dry wretch
Pulled back away
Lay back let it happen
Kaleidoscopic mathematical equations
Clowns exploding confetti
Somewhere a warm hug
All those bright lights smiling
Remember to breathe
crossing
that twitch before
dyings itch
Gasping
dry wretch
Pulled back away
Lay back let it happen
Kaleidoscopic mathematical equations
Clowns exploding confetti
Somewhere a warm hug
All those bright lights smiling
Remember to breathe

Raised from the dead
Remove these stones
From my tomb
Gotta live my life
Outside of this womb
You can't keep me down
I'm putting up a fight
I refuse to play zombie
In your puppet life
I'm coming back
Better than before
With a brand new arsenal
To settle the score
No longer saddled by addiction
I refuse to lie in my made bed
Clean and sober
I'm raised from the dead
From my tomb
Gotta live my life
Outside of this womb
You can't keep me down
I'm putting up a fight
I refuse to play zombie
In your puppet life
I'm coming back
Better than before
With a brand new arsenal
To settle the score
No longer saddled by addiction
I refuse to lie in my made bed
Clean and sober
I'm raised from the dead

Finally be free
I am what you want
I am what you need
Let go of this world
And fill yourself with me
Lonely and afraid
I'll take it away
Rejected and empty
Come fill yourself with me
You know you want me
You know you need me
Now give into those feelings
I'll take you away
I'll take you far far away
We'll leave this place
Just you and me
Our love can grow
And we'll finally be free
I am what you need
Let go of this world
And fill yourself with me
Lonely and afraid
I'll take it away
Rejected and empty
Come fill yourself with me
You know you want me
You know you need me
Now give into those feelings
I'll take you away
I'll take you far far away
We'll leave this place
Just you and me
Our love can grow
And we'll finally be free

Sheep
I have read and published some of my old poems
when the world was mint fresh and I believed in the lady in the lake, I saw her swim a moonlit night
know I know she is not there, but a product of my
feverish mind
Sheep, they are dumb, think the pastor is a friend and
his dog means well and even smells like an ewe but its
fur is useless and full of ticks, can't eat grass to feed
itself forever pestering the pastor wanting to show off
when barking at the flock
The sheep and the landscape are equally old seen in

Another Drink
Take a sip
On an empty stomach
Watch the world go by
And do nothing
Take a sip
Drown the noise out
From the outside in
And fix nothing
Take a sip
Then another
Til there's no one left
And be nothing
Take a sip
On an empty stomach
Watch the world go by
And do nothing
Take a sip
Drown the noise out
From the outside in
And fix nothing
Take a sip
Then another
Til there's no one left
And be nothing
Take a sip

The last Viking
Erik Bye was a writer, entertainer, TV personality, and easily, in the sixties and the seventies, the most popular man around.
He was born in New York to Norwegian parents who later went back to live there, while their son Erik went
back to the USA to finish his education.
On returning to Norway, he wrote a book about his experiences crisscrossing the USA.
The travel book was a best-seller in Scandinavia and
the book was also translated into English.
Erik also wrote some other books and many songs about the seas

the drug
A notable writer in the literary Norwegian firmament was Jens Bjornebo who was the leading radical star
outspoken and a perfect spokesman for modern times in
the sixties and seventies.
Jens, let's call him Jens came from an upper-class shipping family and received a top education at the time
when only a few could afford to go to university.
Since his father was in ship owner class, bantam Jens joined the merchant navy, but only for a short time he was not of the material needed as a sailor.
Jens was a multi-talented man, who wrote poems, romances

a remarkable suicide
A remarkable suicide
Johan Borgen
had an elegant pen and a charming story near his typewriter, but he was also a serious writer who deeply plowed furrow in the landscape of the mind
His masterwork was “Lillelord” exploring the unexplained lyssa that often follows gifted people
who often sink into depression and suicide
It was as a dandified storyteller he was best known by the public; in my time as a seafarer when the merchant fleet was large and a career choice and
had no place for losers, the welfare people came
with books that were exchanged...

Lettin Go
Letting go of pain is not as simple as many people think, I find strands of pain and it's missing link. The deeper my thoughts the deeper I sink. They say I run from my feelings chasing drugs and drinks. I am so emotional inside,they are like mighty tidal waves marching side by side. Crashing on the shores of my spirit. I feel parts of myself going out with the tide. And I have no arms to swim no light house to guide. At times I feel am falling from sky with no wings to fly. I am my pain and my pain am I. If pain is a place, it is no place to die. Letting it go is not easy I tell no lies....

The Shelf
I remember the times from my youth, a time when I had very few role models.
I grew belligerent, ignorant and uncouth;
As I was shown the value of liquor bottles.
Firsthand experience, I sadly held this coal.
Burned to the quick as it scorched my very soul.
This is no excuse for my actions, for every person isn’t the same.
Some can handle these liquids, but to think I could, I was insane.
I seen what it did to my father, I seen what it did to my mother.
I seen what it...
