It's called THERE IS NO TOMORROW
If I say, you must live till you die
If I say, stay wet till you dry
If I say, sit quiet till twilight
Are you going to?
If I say, there is no rain ever again
If I say, sun is just a shadow in pain
If I say, beneath the autumn tree, you'll never live again
Do you believe me too?
If I say, there is no tomorrow again,
Do you believe this too?
Yes, please do, because
There is no tomorrow,
Left to feel again
There is no tomorrow,
Never flowing life again
There is no sorrow, no tomorrow
...
If I say, stay wet till you dry
If I say, sit quiet till twilight
Are you going to?
If I say, there is no rain ever again
If I say, sun is just a shadow in pain
If I say, beneath the autumn tree, you'll never live again
Do you believe me too?
If I say, there is no tomorrow again,
Do you believe this too?
Yes, please do, because
There is no tomorrow,
Left to feel again
There is no tomorrow,
Never flowing life again
There is no sorrow, no tomorrow

Ghost
Whisper your sweets
Right into my ear
The slightest breeze
Lets me know you're here
But I cannot see
You won't allow that
Hiding in the shadows
To claim my habitat
I'd say I love you
But you're not really there
When I try to love someone new
Your whispers turn to blares
I am unaware
Of a love like this
I am unaware
Of what your kind truly is
You are a ghost
Pretending to be alive
Feeding me lies
While sucking me dry
But I will not give...
Right into my ear

Lets me know you're here

When I try to love someone new
Your whispers turn to blares
I am unaware
Of a love like this
I am unaware
Of what your kind truly is
You are a ghost
Pretending to be alive
Feeding me lies
While sucking me dry
But I will not give...

Works for me
Over the years
I've gotten to the point
Where I don't feel the need to say
Anything
It always seems to be wrong
Just say yes
And get it done with
I've gotten to the point
Where I don't feel the need to say

Sunday morning ennui
Listen to the bed
there's disquiet in my head
There is nothin' goin' down
and I can feel it
There's a stale in the air,
thoughts of woe and wear and tear
not somethin' I want to share,
or reveal
And that sweet city woman,
she moves through the land
controlling my mind and my soul.
When she's rejecting me
yeah, and the feelin' is bad,
then I get day ennui, day ennui
What can I do with it?
Got that day ennui, day ennui
What can I show for it?
Here I am,
waitin' for this moment to...
there's disquiet in my head
There is nothin' goin' down
and I can feel it
There's a stale in the air,
thoughts of woe and wear and tear
not somethin' I want to share,
or reveal
And that sweet city woman,
she moves through the land
controlling my mind and my soul.
When she's rejecting me
yeah, and the feelin' is bad,
then I get day ennui, day ennui
What can I do with it?
Got that day ennui, day ennui
What can I show for it?
Here I am,

A Category Two Blue Tango
Awake, godamn, Wake up!
another day another one-day-at-time another
one slow foot after the other.
Little room still here still cut-to-fit dry-wall.
Place is a mess. Maids all quit back before I can
Recall being born at all.
Place a mess, but yes,
Tis a cozy type of mess.
The type'o cozy mess that reminds that "the world" is not
'your oyster' or anyOther
...

Paradise lost
This love is broken and it's splintered
Torn between the cold shoulders
empty tables
and even colder dinners
A Household Winter in suspension
Is it us or the ice causing these bitter intentions
It's Paradise lost beneath the grip of opposite opinions
I swear only love like this could survive in fables
But Aesop couldn't write a more blurry ending if he was able
Fending off the scorpion riding on my back
But I've got no room for attack
She digs in and I collapse
...

The Great Search
I was lost
In an endless time, in my mute mind
In a dark space, with a different face.
I drifted and I dazed
Through empty voids and white noise,
Through supernovas and different personas
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
Into some words my feelings I could pour,
But I still haven't found the feelings I'm looking for
Maybe they'll turn up on an ocean shore,
Or in my cart at the store,
Probably score them between the pages of a book for sure.
All I know is I am missing something,
Drifting endless into nothing. ...

All at Once
it's funny that life likes to fall apart
all at once
like it's tired of itself just as much
like it's exhaling for the first time
after a deep breath held in
sweeping you away with the howl of its wind
It's funny that when we fall apart
we try so hard to hang onto the seams
we tend to tear a deeper gash
still feigning shock when we bleed
It's funny how life likes to fall apart
all at once ...

trying to sleep
Trying to sleep
I will lie down make no fuzz think of nothing
And relax, the past is a foreign country no need
To go there, it is like raking yesteryears leaves.
So, you feel hungry too late to get up now anyway
No food will not kill you have diabetes shut up go
Sleep, and before you know it a nice girl will serve
Breakfast…oh yeah!
Try not to remember any jokes you brother told
it was thirty years ago back then you laughed
At things that are not funny now.
Can you think of an example, (shut up and sleep!)
We found older adults funny...

another sleepless night
Another sleepless night
A went back in time litany of failures
What I wanted to do I never did
My happiest time was when living alone
In the interior of Algarve
I walked with my dogs in the woods had
Learned conversation with an oak
While the dog chased rabbits.
Six happy years what more can a man ask.
Turbulent water ahead I drank too much
The dog died, and my loneliness became a burden
Pressing me into apathy.
Well, life became tolerable again,
but my contentment was never the same.
My old house is standing there...
A went back in time litany of failures

Pressing me into apathy.
Well, life became tolerable again,

Poomnography
settling for the wrong word, dreaming
of some one you shouldv'e loved long ago
wit piercing missives.
That was the way forged
of the silly stupid stuff
we know.
compared to no thing is everything else, yet still no thing.
spit-polish all them contraptions, and yeah, no thing.
all the boys in the world waggling their genittitalica. no big thing.
the girls in the fuckflicks, "All models over 18yrs old", holy no thing ...

Get That Ass Out.
Let’s just say I’ve
Always felt bad
About myself for
Some reason
And I don’t know
What that means,
But I guess it’s
now open to
interpretation
Trying to figure out
What to bring to this
Bachelor party has
me stressed out
And I’m just hanging
Out until the cut
Off time
How’s that been
Working out
For you?
Lil’ bish is the
One that
Counted,
The one that
Amounted to
What you
May have
Discounted
...
