Expensive habits
Sometimes cheap habits are even worse than expensive habits. Please consider that when you are reading this.
And this one’s called:
Expensive habits
Jill smiles and winks for good measure
‘I am here to make amends
I’m destined for greater things’
And slid her hands down Lenny’s pants
His hands lingered a bit too long
On Jill’s creamy thighs
Hands are not supposed to have brains
But Lenny’s hands thought: nice
A marriage is just like cleaning
It’s a job that’s never done
So shut up, grit your teeth and...

Father
Father
Father where am I now that you are dust
Are my bones the sunken treasure of your legacy?
Your ghost follows my shadow
like a leper lost in an apothecary of the soul
Who wore a uniform
like a centurion flying on eagle’s wings
On a Hellenic march
to an acropolis of the mind
Where you languished with Mom
in Drachma beatitude
For an unbearable silence
broken by cat murmur
When mercy was a flower
in the shade of a Doric column
Teetering on the brink of tragedy
But moments stolen like the...

Indemnity
it is here we lay
beyond the facsimiles
human to human
embracing of hearts
cultivating compassion
forgiving in love
beyond the facsimiles
human to human
embracing of hearts
cultivating compassion
forgiving in love

Deeper Than The Pelion
Deeper than the Pelion Sea
and still waters of twilight
sweeter than ambrosia
vanishing sins
aches and pains
exonerating the flame
of dark's misguided fools
while listening to the innocent
deeper than the Pelion Sea
and still waters of twilight
sweeter than ambrosia
vanishing sins
aches and pains
exonerating the flame
of dark's misguided fools
while listening to the innocent
deeper than the Pelion Sea

Irreplaceable
I love you.
I will always love you.
Until the sky falls down,
And the sun turns blue.
You are in my heart,
For all eternity,
Where ever you fly,
don't forget to think of me.
...sometimes.
I will always love you.
Until the sky falls down,
And the sun turns blue.
You are in my heart,
For all eternity,
Where ever you fly,
don't forget to think of me.
...sometimes.
