Climb
Rough Time
Rough Time
Lost our way, long ago
New flows new normal
Thin wedge’s edge sleepwalking too deaf to the pitch change
Softly, blow upon blow
Welcome to strange
Rough Time…
Climb
Climb
Look there’s a ladder going up to nowhere
Rumblly tumbly gait, up in the air
Hand over hand climbing
Ten toesies aligning
No fear to be fair
Thinks, there’s something of mine…
Sweet Sweet Eyes
Sweet Sweet Eyes
Come take a look at my hands, look at my hands today
Come take a look at my hands, look at my hands today
Well they hold the days of all the years gone by
Since we met in that city street by chance…
Compassion
Calico Dreams
Calico Dreams
Calico dreams with you tonight
Calico dreams deride
Calico dreams gift of mine
Calico dreams surrogate child
Calico dreams darling surprise
Calico dreams survive
Calico dreams patchwork lives
Calico dreams goodbye goodbye…
Something Strong
Something Strong
Hey come catch this
This guy just sits there
With that look on his face in his eye
Seems like he’s found
Found what we dream of
When we can’t get to sleep late at night
But right now can’t be to sure that things will work out…
Slipping Out On The Ocean Tonight
Slipping Out on the Ocean Tonight
Slipping out on the ocean tonight
Down that long path to the sea
There on the sand, in the salty air
Pulled in the tides of you and me
Slipping out on the ocean tonight
Heard the waves whispering today
Come and find old childhood vows
Hear them echo across the bay…
Turning Without Her
Turning Without Her
Come on out with me, let’s go
Time burns
So many forgotten steps
Once learned
But you’re so beautiful tonight
And we’re together
You spin arm’s length
First turn heartaches…
Low Bar
Low Bar
Empty G spews on
Jewish lasers QAnon
No crash deaths at the Pentagon
One of us
Assaults traumatized college kids
Guns at the speaker’s head
Election denier anti-vaxxer spread
Psychotic pus,,,,
Dream Feed
Dream Feed
Up and exhausted (clock says 3am)
Workday tomorrow (and I’m not sure I can)
Digging deep but it’s so hard to find, I think I’ve lost it all
(Then I sink into) your trusting ties
(Drink it in find there’s) no surprise…
(Surging joy embraces) whispered prizes
To Me
To Me (for Gree)
Down on the floor, grandkids say Gree come on over to me
Through the stage door, Bernarda Alba, Curious George to me
Hospice MSW civil rights Chopin am remembering
By pass, good night sweet prince the loneliness dance’n’swing…
Dirty Dealings
Dirty Dealings
Long time ago before all the lies led us astray
Curley’s wild shotgun ride movie cliche
Romancing ourselves, part of our lore, what we believe
Thought protecting ourselves right idea’s all we’d need
Living story board…
Right Brain Left
Shark Bite
Shark Bite
Shark bite: Out of the depths below
Shark bite: Watching it all unfold
So much gain, so much loss
Discovery’s high, voyeur’s cost
Shark bite: Out of my view, blind side
Shark bite: I didn’t feel or mind
Thought I sensed your blue core
Aimed at me hurt some more…
Out of Rhythm and Time
Out of Rhythm and Time
Used to think “I’ve got time”, live for tomorrow
So far to go
Not so much like the rest, a throwback forward
Always finding the flow
Out of reasons and rhymes
Out of rhythm and time…
Higher
Higher
Light speed flavored waves (0 0 0 0 0)
Mercy file
Scanned a to z, duked in server style
She calls in her name, video smile
Com 2 doe ce doe, cyber hyper child
Really hard to say,
Cool, my my
Think I’ll launch her way…
Vouch For You
Vouch for You
Bring it on home, a secret
Nobody knows the truth
There it is now, it’s buried deep
Bring it on home for me to see
Everybody knows a secret
Burns deep inside, a slow hot fuse
She called on out, today’s defeat
Bring it on home, sing it to me…
Could Be Kind
Could Be Kind
There was a man, a heart so cold
His frowns could freeze the sun
He never smiled or had kind words for anyone
Then one day he heard a child singing to herself
I’d swear I heard him say as his heart began to melt…
Hold Tight
Hold Tight
Turn a blind eye, see all the pain
Bare knuckle hold, dulling out praying for any change
Dream at you, dream at you day by day
Dream at you, dream at you play by play
No more surprise, into the light
That’s right
I’ll see you go by…
In The Play
In the Play
Run on the grass, chase games, picnic times
Neath summer sun, memory chimes
Bare footed brand new friends are running heart made just found
Days bright now into whispered sounds
Wonder if it’s all in the play?
Todays, tomorrows, yesterdays
Make It This Time
Make It This Time
We say our goodbyes
The touch of you
And day turns to night
Back into the blue
Call; say it’s all right
Call; see it’s all right
The pitch is outside
Time to pull through
Song Sprite
Song Sprite
Sing yourself to sleep as you rock in my arms
Sing yourself a peace that keeps you from harm
Know that we’ll be here as you close your eyes
Know that we hear your heartbeat in your lullabies
