Morning After, Shindig Ethereal
Secretly, Titania, and Oberon
Had cast a magical spell
The guests were despatched
To a strange Dingly Dell
Their eyes changed colour
And they all grew wings
And flew around in circles
Doing all sorts of things
Some crashed into each other
Some crashed to the ground
Others flew into trees
Some sang silly sounds
Many got dizzy
And a couple were ill
And when they woke up next morning
They were perched upon my window sill
I beckoned them in
To tell me their tales
But none could remember
Because of the...

Shindig Ethereal
Invite to the Wild Fairy Ball
Hosts Titania and Oberon, hear our call
Welcome, welcome, welcome one, and all
You are duly invited, to attend our ball
Where Fairies, and Elves, and Pixies will dance
And lovers will meet, for a little romance
Where tables are set, full of food and red wine
And musical harps, and lyres, will offer sublime
And owls, and foxes, cats, and hares
Will dance the dance Fandango, with a magical flare
Pan will enchant you, with his pipes all afire
All will dance, around the flames of desire
And Unicorns will...

Deep, Dark Woods
I once went walking in the deep, dark woods
I got so lost I thought for good
There were wild growls in the night
They gave me such a terrible fright
Until I realized it wasn’t an animal after all
It was me giving that wild, anguished call
The thought of that frightened me more
Than anything ever had before
I didn’t know I was in such pain
Perhaps I’d even gone a little insane
I ran and scrambled through the brush
The air evaporated-a silent hush
I ran further still and an owl called my name
And I knew there was no need for...

Mr. Green Eyes
When the fish is biting good
the Moon was shining bright
then
suddenly the night stood still
I could feel cold chills running
through my balls as II was
looking at two huge Green Eyes
flashing at me like a stoplight
I was in a tight spot
I almost went into a coma
but I managed to say HI
Mr. Green Eyes
how are you all tonight
the Moon was shining bright
then
suddenly the night stood still
I could feel cold chills running
through my balls as II was
looking at two huge Green Eyes
flashing at me like a stoplight
I was in a tight spot
I almost went into a coma
but I managed to say HI
Mr. Green Eyes
how are you all tonight

the horses
THE HORSES
There was grassland with a river crossing, a natural barrier.
White horses on one side, and muscular brown horses on the other side.
If one looks well, there are foals of mixed race, they good genes and will
in time carve out their land, higher up, near the hills and water.
When farmers wanted a horse for ploughing, they lassoed a brown horse,
for lighter work, like driving the ladies to the church in a buggy, a white horse
was chosen mainly because they were malleable to handle.
Tragedy struck, developers bought the land, houses were built,...

Mystic dreams
Angel tears
Fall through the years
Of everlasting sorrow
Serpents tongue
Lashing the young
Blessings no longer borrowed
Exiled truth
Hidden from youth
Frozen lies in clouds amber
Mystic dreams
Piercing the seams
From stolen childrens slumber
Fall through the years
Of everlasting sorrow
Serpents tongue
Lashing the young
Blessings no longer borrowed
Exiled truth
Hidden from youth
Frozen lies in clouds amber
Mystic dreams
Piercing the seams
From stolen childrens slumber

the tasmanian tiger
The Tasmanian tiger
The last one died in captivity in 1936
and that was a sad moment for humanity,
added to the list of animals we have eliminated over the years.
The Tasmanian tiger was easy to kill. It didn´t know
how cruel we are.
There have been sightings of it by gullible people, but it is an illusion
based on regrets and unspoken longings.
I, also hope, it exists somewhere, but it is a dream,
yet I have seen the animal in clouds formation in the sky
forever condemning us for what we did.

Cydonia (2021)
Cydonia,
so long ago
we left for Earth
we did not know
humanity
had then become
already chosen
by someone
from a place
a star away -
we knew from this
we could not stay
so off to Venus
flying high
building cities
in the sky...
Cydonia
time to return
as human robots
try to learn
what kind of life
lives underground,
where life exists
wherever found...
Cydonia,
an ancient land
only Martians
understand
only...

Illumination
Open your eyes
To the coming of an age
Spill your bones across the dawn
Heavenly spaced
Spread your wings
It's time to fly
Glide and dive lost in time
Mercurial divine
Sparkling stars
Luminous dark
Finely shine your burning light
Illustrious vapors
Soaking in my mind
To the coming of an age
Spill your bones across the dawn
Heavenly spaced
Spread your wings
It's time to fly
Glide and dive lost in time
Mercurial divine
Sparkling stars
Luminous dark
Finely shine your burning light
Illustrious vapors
Soaking in my mind

Sweet Mama
Mama was now doing the limbo at the carnival show, in "Heaven's Rest", Nursing Home. Heaven's Rest also fronted for a mortuary and automatic carwash. Mama was a dwarf with a goiter and broken veins. Mama lived in dreams of Mona Lisa and tooth fairies. She hung from strings as if dark's marionette. Wrapped in her favorite Chinchilla.
I was her kemosabe and she was my loops. I in my best, Liberace attire straight out of pixie. Wearing my Maidenform and nightshade. Stepping on escargot shells as they slithered in ooze. I had just made summa cum laude at the freak show. Thinking summa...

Floating Wonders
Have you ever heard such wonder?
A quartet of elephants atop a roving turtle
The name of which is A-
Ahh...I forget
