Daddy is Cold

Daddy is cold come warm him up
Nothing that I do or feel feels like I felt it with you
Who is going to suppose such a thing?
The twitchy id of perpetual need
Litany of apparent denials
Life itself is compassion

Regrets

Regrets are hard earned cautionary tales
We don’t know that half of us is meant for the shadows
The past is a done deal
Without a method it’s all Jack-in-the-box
Regrets are the greatest motivators
And so, we put our full soul into the game

Mole Conversation

Within the conclave of moles
The Big Chief declares:
		Know yourself
		Own yourself
		Be yourself
Try riding across the water on a bicycle, suggests the Oracle
The pip-squeaks add:
		Old weather is forgotten
What’s gonna save us? Mumblings from the burrow
Don’t make a mountain out of…the unconvinced replied

Sudden Gusts

Who owns the iguana that answers to Ramona? 
The mind of the wind contains sudden gusts of cantankerousness
Silliness is indefensible when it hardens into tradition
The Circus of Rightness can’t always be wrong, can it?
It’s as confusing as where Schrodinger's Cat goes to the bathroom
At worst the moon is nullified by rolling fog

Be Patient

Be patient without waiting
Says the poet
Memory is our savior
Get lost in the silence that liberates
Make visible what is invisible
Meaning dissolves when you look too hard

Convention

Within a posse of badgers
Conventional notions are being dealt a deathblow
Tightly strung neurosis taken to a high style
A salvo of gutsy and quixotic doggerel
Disreputability raised to the level of ecstatic and heartrending art
Beyond that judge for your self!

Slipping into Darkness

Slipping into darkness  
Within these pauses of pleasure upon Erector Set innocence
You can chance deep gondola romance and not carry
despondence into your life
Pretty soon you got to pay
Worry is a shoddy fortune teller
You know she loves drinking whisky while laughing at the moon

In the Country of Loners

In a country of loners sides can’t exist
Being privy to a joke no one else is on 
Revising the laws of nature
Less an impulse than a code of ethics
If you don’t get grounded soon you’re gonna go into orbit 
Are you born to stay and fight, or born to leave?
