Forgiving Ones I Love
Myself — All of them, yet one in particular
Romantic entanglement — Relationships are hard
Especially ones that are intimate — Without masks
Or with different ones than you use in public
“Ships that pass in the night,
and speak each other in passing,
only a signal shown,
and a distant voice in the darkness;
So on the ocean of life,
we pass and speak one another,
only a look and a voice,
then darkness again and a silence.”
~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

She says I’m boring her camera it takes more to delight the cadaver
Night eyes on icy patrol
Yours were not so nazi feline
Mine were as dead as monks and our particles are in motion
Night eyes producing ashes we love to view unfortunate passions
Still she brings my photo to bed
No mere limp verse could incite identity destruction
Our particles are in motion
Sometimes we’re not legible but we’re the same strange animal
Let them say our love is peculiar don’t care
There’s only now no ever after, we won’t let this end in disaster
You are my twin no I will never go there
Baby, baby… I’m gonna bring it on home to you.
I’ve got my ticket, I’ve got that load. Conducter gone hollered, all aboard.
Take my seat, right way back. ooh yeah. Watch this train roll down the track.
I’m gonna bring it on home, Bring it on home to you.
Watch out, watch out…
Try to tell you baby, what you tryin’ to do?
Tryin’ to love me baby, love some other man too.
Bring it on home…
Went a little walk downtown, messed and got back late.
Found a note there waiting, it said, “Daddy, I just can’t wait.”
Bring it on home… Bring it back home to me baby…
Tell you, pretty baby, you love to mess me `round.
I’m gonna give you lovin’, baby, gonna move you out o’ town.
Bring it on home…
Sweetest little baby, daddy ever saw.
I’m gonna give you lovin’ baby, I’m gonna give you more.
Bring it on home…
Bring it on home, Bring it on home to you…
Hush now, don’t you cry
Wipe away the teardrop from your eye
You’re lying safe in bed
It was all a bad dream
Spinning in your head
Your mind tricked you to feel the pain
Of someone close to you leaving the game of life
So here it is, another chance
Wide awake you face the day
Your dream is over… or has it just begun?
There’s a place I like to hide
A doorway that I run through in the night
Relax child, you were there
But only didn’t realize and you were scared
It’s a place where you will learn
To face your fears, retrace the years
And ride the whims of your mind
Commanding in another world
Suddenly you hear and see
This magic new dimension
I- will be watching over you
I- am gonna help you see it through
I- will protect you in the night
I- am smiling next to you, in Silent Lucidity
[Visualize your dream]
[Record it in the present tense]
[Put it into a permanent form]
[If you persist in your efforts]
[You can achieve dream control]
[Dream control]
[I’ll do better than that]
[Dream control]
[Dream control]
[Dream control]
[Dream control]
[Help me]
If you open your mind for me
You won’t rely on open eyes to see
The walls you built within
Come tumbling down, and a new world will begin
Living twice at once you learn
You’re safe from pain in the dream domain
A soul set free to fly
A round trip journey in your head
Master of illusion, can you realize
Your dream’s alive, you can be the guide but…
I- will be watching over you
I- am gonna help to see it through
I- will protect you in the night
I- am smiling next to you….
I sit looking ‘round
I’d gladly lose me to find you
I look at my face in the the mirror
I know I’m worth nothing without you
In life one and one don’t make two
One and one make one
And I’m looking for that free ride to me
I’m looking for you
I’d gladly give up all I got
To catch you I’m gonna run and never stop I’d pay any price just to win you
Surrender my good life for bad
To find you I’m gonna drown an unsung man I’d call that a bargain

Looking out at the road rushing under my wheels
Looking back at the years gone by like so many summer fields
In ‘65 I was seventeen and running up 101
I don’t know where I’m running now, I’m just running on
Running on - running on empty
Running on - running blind
Running on - running into the sun
But I’m running behind
Gotta do what you can just to keep your love alive
Trying not to confuse it with what you do to survive
In ‘69 I was twenty-one and I called the road my own
I don’t know when that road turned onto the road I’m on
Running on - running on empty
Running on - running blind
Running on - running into the sun
But I’m running behind
Everyone I know, everywhere I go
People need some reason to believe
I don’t know about anyone but me
If it takes all night, that’ll be all right
If I can get you to smile before I leave
Looking out at the road rushing under my wheels
I don’t know how to tell you all just how crazy this life feels
I look around for the friends that I used to turn to to pull me through
Looking into their eyes I see them running too
Running on - running on empty
Running on - running blind
Running on - running into the sun
But I’m running behind
Honey you really tempt me
You know the way you look so kind
I’d love to stick around but I’m running behind
You know I don’t even know what I’m hoping to find
Running into the sun but I’m running behind
“Love is the most important thing in the world. It may be important to great thinkers to examine the world, to explain and despise it. But I think it is only important to love the world, not to despise it, not for us to hate each other, but to be able to regard the world and ourselves and all beings with love, admiration and respect.”
- Herman Hesse
Please, I beg you hear this humble voice
Please, pale orchid flower, music of my soul
Alone, upon the windswept way
Descends the nightingale
She swoops to soothe my aching brow
Let us now make love
Please, I beg you hear this humble voice
Please, my emerald goddess, wash away the wounds
Alone, the pilgrim thirsts and falls
The Queen runs to his call
She stoops to soothe his aching brow
Let us now make love
Make love, make love
Let us, let us, let us make love (love, love)
Love, sweet heavenly love (love, love)
I promise you life will be good (love, love)
If you just stand down and try (love, love)
To be one with, so feel pride
Let us make love till the end of time
Now and forever
Please, I beg you hear this humble voice
Please, dear oyster shell reveal your hidden pearl
Alone, the deaf, the sick, the blind
Turn grimly for the knife
The prophet stoops to soothe their brow
Let us now make love
Make love, make love
Let us, let us, let us make love (love, love)
Sweet heavenly love (love, love)
I promise you life will be good (love, love)
If you just stand down and try (love, love)
To be one with, so feel pride
Let us make love till the end of time
Now and forever
Please, I beg you hear this humble voice
Come, let’s walk the windy roads to find the truth
Revealed, each part has now been played
Your beauty will not fade
So cling to me, fulfill your vow
Let us now make love
(Love, love)
Sweet heavenly love (love, love)
I promise you life will be good (love, love)
If you just stand down and try (love, love)
To be one with, so feel pride
Let us make love till the end of time
Now and forever
Let us now make love
Till the end of time
Genesis - Counting Out Time
I’m counting out time, hoping it goes like I planned it,
‘cos I understand it. Look! I’ve found the hotspots, Figs 1-9.
- still counting out time, got my finger on the button,
“Don’t say nuttin - just lie there still
And I’ll get you turned on just fine.”
Erogenous zones I love you.
Without you, what would a poor boy do?
Touch and go with 1-6.
Bit of trouble in zone No. 7.
Gotta remember all of my tricks.
There’s heaven ahead in No. 11!
Getting crucial responses, dilation of the pupils.
“Honey get hip! It’s time to unzip, to unzip, zip, zip-a-zip-a-zip.
Whipee!”
(Take it away Mr. Guitar)
- Move over Casanova -
I’m counting out time, reaction none to happy,
Please don’t slap me,
I’m a red blooded male and the book said I could not fail.
I’m counting out time, I got unexpected distress from my mistress,
I’ll get my money back from the bookstore right away.
Erongenous zones I question you -
Without you, what would a poor boy do?
Without you, what would a poor boy do?
Without you, mankind handkinds thru’ the blues.
welcome to nowhere fast
nothing here ever lasts
nothing but memories
of what never was
we’re nowhere, we’re nowhere, we’re nowhere to be
nowhere, we’re nowhere, we’re nowhere to see
living makes me sick
so sick i wish i’d die
down in the belly of the beast
i can’t lie
you’re nowhere, you’re nowhere, you’re nowhere to be
nowhere, you’re nowhere, you’re nowhere to see
there’s nothing left to do
there’s nothing left to feel
doesn’t matter what you want, so
to make yourself feel better
you make is so you’ll never
give in to your forevers
and live for always
and forever, forever, you’re forever to be
forever, forever, you’re forever to me
