Such stillness in the night, a delicate light, the moon in the sky, shining so bright, and the stars hanging there in the heavens, twinkling in the eyes, oh, such stillness in the night, a cool breeze, a cool breeze that brings such refreshments, as you look up and wonder, how distant they are, and…

Such a short life
Such a short life, but there could have been so much more to give, and oh, how much sadness there is, and far too many tears over such a short life, the life of someone who had so much to give, oh, such a short life, such a short life you lived, and I, I…
Subway train
Subway, subway train, man asleep, mental health problems racing through his brain, gun in his pocket and a little change, hat on his head almost covering his eyes, sat dreaming of the rain, dreaming of the woman, that he could love if she ever gave him the time of day, subway, subway train, a newspaper…
Stupid heart
Goodbye, goodbye to your stupid heart, your stupid heart that could not recognise, that you with your mood so black, could not ever overcome me, and that you could never swallow me up whole, and you never will in my life again play a part, oh, you and your stupid heart, you are better off…
Strongly against the shore
Strongly against the shore the boat does drift, and as the waves crash upon it, the moonlight reflects upon the waters, and in its glorious rise and fall, underneath the cliffs, where the rocks are, the seagulls rest in the moonlight, with their eyes on the horizon, and with their thoughts upon the air, and…

Strike
Strike a match, light a fire, burn what you like, let us heat this place, this cabin in the woods where we have our secret desires, strike a match, light a fire, yes, burn what you like, and let us a talk while over whiskey and wine, and let us talk of revolution, and let…
Streets of anger
Streets of anger, streets of rage. People with angry hearts and angry brains. Streets of anger, streets of rage, streets filled with poverty and savagery, where a barbarian’s war is waged. Streets of anger, streets of rage, poverty and savagery, gun crime and knife crime, and robberies and rapes, and despair in the air wherever…
Streams of consciousness
Streams of Consciousness, streams of thought, and ways of thinking, moulded by the world, and lessened by oppression, and by the wrong paths, down which humanity is lead, and taken off course, streams of consciousness, streams of thought, streams of thought, like butterflies upon the air, so colourful and bright, so colourful and bright, before…
Strange
Strange tales, strange tales of love on a runaway train, strange tales of a night, only a brief night to somewhere far away, strange tales of candlelight and beaujolais, strange tales, strangers or not, strange to me, strangers upon a train, eyes meeting across a carriage, and holding a little conversation face to face, holding…
