Wednesday for progress

The language of the frost lobs dead balloons over ruins today in view of wan wordless crowds that chase waifs to spires with fiery plumes, and incite the firmament’s portrait of ’A Drowning in Styx’ that gives impotence kicks. Boredom murders the heart of our age while sanguinary creeps take the stage, boredom strangles the life from the printed page. Masking vapor trails from Mercury for a killer on Umbria who crippled birch mares now briar's replace their old cotton limbs. Who will tell? I mean would it make a difference? Look metal flower petal tears do not even appear in the Myopic Mirror. The moon was sagging in the sky as I held her face to mine. All our thoughts were coming in so clear beyond the Myopic Mirror, we were darting from the place where we just couldn't fit. For away from all the violence safely flying in our own orbit, why do I always have to tell you ”forget about the prescient signs!”? Forget about the life we knew, may we never be stripped of anything we love. May we grow so gentle, never go mental, may we never go go mental. May we always stay stay gentle. what was my number? 114395? I don’t care! No no no no no!

Tuesday makes a differance

Out here we don't hear anything but the clicking of the rain, against the leaves and the way each other breathes (but you've got to listen). Make this home--We've never, we never had one. Out here we turn out all the lights and sit inside looking out; And the bay's still. She's wearing the night's expression. Make this home--We've never, we never had one. We've never, we never had one. Yeah, let's stop calling this a vacation. (We're just here for two nights). Count the beats of your heart, and no city streets to break up cars. We can lie here, we are the only ones, every song plays just for us.
