Bury your heart, and bury your mind, and take your time, with your boots upon the chair, and your mind elsewhere, yes, hungry bellies, need food to eat, in the back streets of Futura, in the slums, where no one barely sleeps, and the waves of happiness come, only with amphetamines, and guns, as on […]
A steady heart, a steady mind, an eye on the time, a sunset glow in the sky, with a sigh, as wispy clouds pass on by, and the sun it lights my face as I smile, and I blink, arising at the dawn, rejuvenated by the night, and I rub the sleep dust from my […]
A new day, a new dawn, a new life, the bright colours of the flowers of spring, here sat in the sunshine, by the pool, embraced by you, and your welcoming, your welcoming arms, and your charms, oh, what wonders you bring, what wonders, that make me feel like a king, and what a glorious […]

You came to life the minute you walked in the room. You came to life like the summer, but you were gone by June, yes, you came to life, but you were, really no one who anyone knew. and you went to all the parties, and you socialised, and with your beauty, and your pretty […]
