POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Turning of the tide
The tide turns
No time for confession
Paralysis of the system
Meetings of minds
We go it alone
No fun to be had
The trigger is pressed
The instinct kicks in
Revenge is writhing
Rain hammers down
Wake up!
In the city of mirrors
There's nowhere to hide
A key turns in the lock
Footsteps
Voices
Freedom
Silence
Pockets are burning
The tide is turning
No time for confession
Paralysis of the system
Meetings of minds
We go it alone
No fun to be had
The trigger is pressed
The instinct kicks in
Revenge is writhing
Rain hammers down
Wake up!
In the city of mirrors
There's nowhere to hide
A key turns in the lock
Footsteps
Voices
Freedom
Silence
Pockets are burning
The tide is turning

City at Night (spoken in gravelly late Tom Waits voice)
The mysterious roar of silence
Drowns my soul tonight
My heart is feeling lonely
The window bares no light
Bottles all around me
No room to breathe
No place to go and no messages I receive
Can't wait until the morning
But I can't sleep a wink
The only thing that I can do
Is lie awake and think
Or go out for a cigarette
Smell the city air
Sit down on the pavement
With the cold wind in my hair
Chain them till the sun comes up
Watch the world go by
Pick up stones and throw them
Just to pass the time
And as the day begins...
Drowns my soul tonight
My heart is feeling lonely
The window bares no light
Bottles all around me
No room to breathe
No place to go and no messages I receive
Can't wait until the morning
But I can't sleep a wink
The only thing that I can do
Is lie awake and think
Or go out for a cigarette
Smell the city air
Sit down on the pavement
With the cold wind in my hair
Chain them till the sun comes up
Watch the world go by
Pick up stones and throw them
Just to pass the time
And as the day begins...
