Dreamt In the Deep Dark Night Of My Turbulent Restlessness
When your day goes to hell
Flies apart at your seems
Leaks too much saltwater
Over your lovely things
Yeah ... too much shit
Yeah ... too much hurt
Yeah ... too much Pain
Yeah ... always everyday
When your dishwasher leaks
Soaks through the floor beneath
Suds fill the kitchen all up
The floor'll now get mopped
Yeah ... too much work
Yeah ... too much bad luck
Yeah ... too much voided love
Yeah ... too much jaded muck
When your love drips out on the floor ...
Flies apart at your seems
Leaks too much saltwater
Over your lovely things
Yeah ... too much shit
Yeah ... too much hurt
Yeah ... too much Pain
Yeah ... always everyday
When your dishwasher leaks
Soaks through the floor beneath
Suds fill the kitchen all up
The floor'll now get mopped
Yeah ... too much work
Yeah ... too much bad luck
Yeah ... too much voided love
Yeah ... too much jaded muck
When your love drips out on the floor ...

5. Annotated Peoples Make Connections: if they walked around in love/for love/by love with SFX labels to their chests
His hand is on the latch
as I latch onto his mirage. I think
picket fences and Tom appears
or Huck. White-washed. No water
passes through these slabs. He says,
open or doom. Says, room or perish.
I would have circled the picket in zen.
Or stopped as an O,
away, taking in. My friend, auditioner
for Avenue Q, has no clear idea
of the profanity of rules. Move along
she muppets, the voices of New Yorkers
pushing through. The sign lofts high, as his eyes audit,
ender of worlds, ender of traffic
footing what was once a street...

Fused Confusion
Falling through the aether once more
Chaos and nonsense add to the call
Running and standing all the same
Black and white all colorfully insane
Chaos and nonsense add to the call
Running and standing all the same
Black and white all colorfully insane

Dance of the Dead
Peering out the old cottage window, facing the cemetery across the street
Bored with nothing to do, to go, and no one to meet.
The pale moon shines full and bright with no clouds to cover.
The night breeze gently blows-open the shutters;
it’s a perfect night for such a long summer.
Grandpa’s old clock strikes at midnight; without expecting anything spectacular
I take, in my hands, grandpa’s bird-watching binoculars. ...
Bored with nothing to do, to go, and no one to meet.
The pale moon shines full and bright with no clouds to cover.
The night breeze gently blows-open the shutters;
it’s a perfect night for such a long summer.
Grandpa’s old clock strikes at midnight; without expecting anything spectacular
I take, in my hands, grandpa’s bird-watching binoculars. ...

The Lady Blue (Another Chance)
Gary and I were heartbroken over losing the baby.But as luck would have it, I got pregnant again not too long afterwards. Everything was going great that is until the dreams returned. I ended up very depressed over them.
Please don't judge me. I think I have suffered enough for my past transgressions. I pray I am forgiven for I never meant to hurt anyone. I only wanted love like all of the rest. Perhaps, I shouldn't be forgiven as my happiness was bought at the expense of another women's pain.
I began singing at The Lady Blue...

Ambulance
I fall asleep, wake in the woods,
spy an axe lodged in a tree trunk-
I see nobody else around, but I feel
the vines creep on the ground.
Lodged in my throat, I ask the tree trunk
why nobody's around, spy a glint
creep like tendrils on the ground
proclaiming ambulate, ambulate.
My body spins down nowhere; a glint
like eyeballs roll as tendrils into mulch,
my legs proclaim it’s too late to ambulate
for a thrown star sticks out of my chest....
spy an axe lodged in a tree trunk-
I see nobody else around, but I feel

creep like tendrils on the ground
proclaiming ambulate, ambulate.
My body spins down nowhere; a glint
like eyeballs roll as tendrils into mulch,
my legs proclaim it’s too late to ambulate
for a thrown star sticks out of my chest....

Dreaming of Home
I woke up beside you, in a house that we own,
sobbing and broken ‘cause I couldn’t find home.
The dream was so vivid, the feeling so raw;
an aching realization I’d been here before.
No one to guide me, found my way on my own,
following my instincts, somehow I knew the road.
I set out across the water, though I couldn’t see the way;
unseen creatures threatening, but I kept the fears at bay.
When “HOME” finally appeared as if out of thin air,
I could tell everybody was already there.
They’d gone on without me, not thinking to wait, ...
sobbing and broken ‘cause I couldn’t find home.
The dream was so vivid, the feeling so raw;
an aching realization I’d been here before.
No one to guide me, found my way on my own,

shadow tangled vines
shadow
tangled vines
wrap themselves
around
my sleep,
delicate
breathing
coming from
my chest,
my dreams
blinking
within each
direction
and
my hands
tied,
whether this
is natural
or unnatural
occurrence,
each thought
works its
way to
the surface,
awakening
i realized
i felt
this way
every time
i thought
of you
walking away.

Nightmares
Running out of steam
Can't overcome in my dreams
Fear repressed my screams
Can't overcome in my dreams
Fear repressed my screams
