Sonnet of His Influence
i think i drowned in your eyes long ago
because my face is cold and pale as snow
my lips blue because they cease to draw breath
i was in this state when you up and left
death by ocean is mislabeled, they claim
for it is the victim's blood at blame
which grimy water lures into the lungs
leaving a beautiful life song unsung
somewhere in your heart that dead body lies
while the spirit is still here, sad and wise
sometimes she can still feel the misty wind
and she remembers the ocean again
and the fateful day she ran to it's shore...
because my face is cold and pale as snow
my lips blue because they cease to draw breath
i was in this state when you up and left
death by ocean is mislabeled, they claim
for it is the victim's blood at blame
which grimy water lures into the lungs
leaving a beautiful life song unsung
somewhere in your heart that dead body lies
while the spirit is still here, sad and wise
sometimes she can still feel the misty wind
and she remembers the ocean again
and the fateful day she ran to it's shore...

Sonnet In The Night
Something bout the night that lets you see the stars
Something bout your glance that tears open scars
Eleven Eleven, make a wish, dear
And face everything you've ever feared
Wipe away my makeup before tonight
Because I know it's gonna be a fight
When the pale moon gently cries out my name
But my hard heart says he's the one to blame
I've been sitting here for many hours
Picking petals off these mourning flowers
It's all useless cause I already know
He doesn't love me and it's all a show
Gaze out at the moon who still calls my name...
Something bout your glance that tears open scars
Eleven Eleven, make a wish, dear

Wipe away my makeup before tonight
Because I know it's gonna be a fight
When the pale moon gently cries out my name
But my hard heart says he's the one to blame
I've been sitting here for many hours
Picking petals off these mourning flowers
It's all useless cause I already know
He doesn't love me and it's all a show
Gaze out at the moon who still calls my name...

He Digs The Night
Sugar Sweet Venom
Decked Out In Denim
Your Stereotype
Is All The Girls Hype
Bad Kid Wanna Be
Won't You Sit With Me?
Misfit Club Delight
Faded Neon Light
They Say You're So Lame
But I Dig Your Game
50's Plastic Dreams
Vintage, Tearing Seams
My Dearest Nightmare
Joy In The Dare
Throw The Leather On
And We'll Sing Of Dawn
Decked Out In Denim
Your Stereotype
Is All The Girls Hype
Bad Kid Wanna Be
Won't You Sit With Me?

Motion Sickness on The Track and The Sun I Lack.
Travel on,
Long Track.
I'll sit in the Back
where They
can't see me,
and they'll let me be.
My back
to the Sun.
I thought it'd be fun.
"The
Palace Car Life"
a great deal of strife.
-for I never
stand!
The views? Not that grand.
The weak Frame
rattles.
The days are Battles.
There's a Man in
Black
a few seats on back.
He glances
at Me...
He's an Omen, see?
He's wasted
his Years.
Succumbed to his Fears.
He tells Me ...

Midway
Sweet Muse of my dreams
I'm in love, it seems
Or perhaps just breaking down
Dark eyes that hold night
I bask in moonlight
Dancing in the streets Down Town
Carnival Crazy
The lights amaze me
Though I know their glow is fake
Keep up with me, Dear
I can't face my fear
And our fun stirred it awake
It's on our heels, now
I can hear its howl
Monster of Reality
And you can stay here
But I must go, Dear
Run from the mortality
And maybe one day
I'll return to play
Meet me at the Ferris Wheel...

Mojave Moon (Sonnet)
Sometimes I'm convinced you will forget me
But I think you wait in the Mojave
A mindless spirit flooded with moonlight
And I know that I'll find you there some night
Maybe you'll find those old letters someday
And try to tell yourself that you're OK
And you won't know, but I threw yours away
Yet here I wish I could read them today
I know you feel it as well as I do
A thick blue haze from which we can't pull through
And the night presses itself on your chest
Without a breath, you silently confess
That you recall the love of an old...

Spring Concrete and Air
Sun on my collar bone
Caressing, kissing me
Love of a higher tone
And I think you agree
The color of Spring heat
In my lips and my cheeks
Cool pavement on my feet
The confusion it peaks
There's sweet frost on your skin
Thawing in the warm air
We're Winter's secret sin
And Summer's fateful dare
Caressing, kissing me
Love of a higher tone
And I think you agree
The color of Spring heat
In my lips and my cheeks
Cool pavement on my feet
The confusion it peaks
There's sweet frost on your skin
Thawing in the warm air
We're Winter's secret sin
And Summer's fateful dare

Innocent, Blameless; Freedom Is Shameless
The thunder crying
I grasp at my chest
Because I'm dying
In memory's best
I saw it forming
In your troubled eyes
Summer of Storming
Season of Sad Sighs
Hold my hand in yours
So we can both fall
Face first through these doors
And answer the call
Take the anvil off
Sink dead dreams with it
The normal will scoff
Be we have to quit
Innocent, blameless
We'll take on the night
Forever Shameless
We'll give a good fight
Wind Blown Hair and Eyes
Winged Mind and Heart ...
I grasp at my chest
Because I'm dying
In memory's best
I saw it forming
In your troubled eyes
Summer of Storming
Season of Sad Sighs
Hold my hand in yours
So we can both fall
Face first through these doors
And answer the call
Take the anvil off
Sink dead dreams with it
The normal will scoff
Be we have to quit
Innocent, blameless
We'll take on the night
Forever Shameless
We'll give a good fight
Wind Blown Hair and Eyes
Winged Mind and Heart ...

In The Sirens' Lair
Voice of the sirens cry out
The taste of your drink is stout
Hold it to my lips and tease me
Do whatever, just please me
I feel your thunder in my chest
I've seen you at your worst and best
You're a beast with nothing to do
And I'm the monster that feeds you
Lick the blood off my talons, dear
I'm really nothing to be feared
I have my games and you have yours
Together, We'll board up some doors
Lay down, now, close your eyes and dream
It's not as bad as it may seem
I'm going to slip away tonight
And maybe I'll get to...
The taste of your drink is stout
Hold it to my lips and tease me
Do whatever, just please me

Lick the blood off my talons, dear
I'm really nothing to be feared
I have my games and you have yours
Together, We'll board up some doors
Lay down, now, close your eyes and dream

I'm going to slip away tonight
