Poem153: Untitled

Do you know flowers unfold
when you walk by?
Sweet as a kiss from tulips
and twice as shy.

Did you know the flower hide
as I pass by?
As if you were the sun and I a shadow
blocking the sky.

There he is
a shadow stealing such sweet kisses
from the tulips of the sun.

If It Isn't Her

standing like john wayne
she is full framed
she is center stage
and my imagination is
rattling in its cage
I didn't really notice
when everything else disappeared
but as far as I'm concerned
if it isn't her
it isn't here

She says do i know you
I say well, no, not biblically
but i've been waiting for you to come
and talk to me
I have been playing too many of those boy girl games
she says honey you are safe here
this is a girl girl thing

i told him i loved him
so he thought i'd roll over and play dead
he was god's gift to hypocrisy
with weak knees and a big fat head
she says honey don't tell me
that old story
you are boring me
just tell me do you like me
tell me what you're gonna do
now that youre free

Mad world

All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places
Worn out faces
Bright and early for the daily races
Going no where
Going no where
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression
No expression
Hide my head I wanna drown my sorrow
No tomorrow
No tomorrow
And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I’m dying are the best I’ve ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles its a very very
Mad world
Mad world
Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy birthday
Happy birthday
And I feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen
Sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me
No one knew me
Hello teacher tell me what’s my lesson
Look right through me
Look right through me
And I find I kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I’m dying are the best I’ve ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles its a very very
Mad world
Mad world
Enlarging your world
Mad world

I Wish I Was A Lesbian

I wish I was a Lesbian and not a hetero,
I wouldn't have to mess with men and all their come and go
and all that awful facial hair and yucky machismo!
Ooooh I wish I was a lesbian and not a hetero.

I wish I was a lesbian and that I wasn't straight,
I would sleep with women only, man it would be great!
I could throw away my diaphragm I wouldn't wanna mate!
Ooooh I wish I was a lesbian and that I wasn't straight, hey!

I wish I was a lesbian I'd like to be a dyke,
I would hang with K.D. Lang, Mel Gibson take a hike,
I think it would be nice to love someone who was alike.
Ooooh I wish I was a lesbian I'd like to be a dyke.

I wish I was a lesbian that's why this song is sung,
it shouldnt' have to matter how someone is hung,
other things are more important - like how you use your tongue!
blblblblbl I wish I was a lesbian that's why this song is sung, hey!

(I dare Casey Casem to play this)

I wish I was a lesbian I know it's sad but true,
then maybe I'd understand you guys and all you do,
but if I was a lesbian I wouldn't have to!
I wish I was a lesbian I know it's sad but true, hey

I wish I was a Lesbian and not a hetero,
I wouldn't have to mess with men and all their come and go
and all that awful facial hair and yucky machismo!
(I hate that damn machismo)
Ooooh I wish I was a lesbian and not a hetero.
I wish I was a lesbian and not a hetero.
I wish I was a lesbian and not a heterooooooo.

The BIG Moment

Do you have these intense moments when something is about to happen and you feel that something very important is coming up like a strange coincidence which isn't really a coincidence but you can't really say what it is not without ruining the moment so you should just let it happen because today everything comes together in this one coincidence which you'll look back on, smiling and sometimes wondering what life would have been like if it hadn't happened but not too long, because you'll just be grateful that it did happen and that moment is now, at this very moment this magical moment when it's actually going to happen!
... and nothing happens?
I have that as well.

My Cubicle Is Right Outside The Ladie's Room

1
I hear things
man was not meant to hear
and even one time
garbled through the door vent
for sure I think
a compliment
about my vocabulary

2
A woman from legal
sings in there
her voice a series
of trills and notes
echoing off the tile
a nightingale song

One time I told Bob from IT
Come by and listen
and he heard it and said
Does she start
before or after
she flushes?

She must've heard us
giggling like schoolgirls
because after that
she never sang again

3
I have often considered standing as the door opened
and as some woman walked out I'd point to my watch
and then look at her with eyebrow-high disapproval

4
One time there was splashing
and loud unladylike laughter
after a half hour
three women filed out
ignoring me

5
In the men's room
Mr. Kelper the old guy
will have a whole conversation with you
while you sit in a stall

6
The nightingale began singing again one June
and this time
when she came out
I stood up
and applauded

She called me
a jackass

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
A Psalm Of Life

Tell me not in mournful numbers,
"Life is but an empty dream!"
For the soul is dead that slumbers,
And things are not what they seem.

Life is real! Life is earnest!
And the grave is not its goal;
"Dust thou art, to dust returnest,"
Was not spoken of the soul.

Not enjoyment, and not sorrow,
Is our destined end or way;
But to act, that each to-morrow
Find us further than to-day.

Art is long, and Time is fleeting,
And our hearts, though stout and brave,
Still, like muffled drums, are beating
Funeral marches to the grave.

In the world's broad field of battle,
In the bivouac of Life,
Be not like dumb, driven cattle!
Be a hero in the strife!

Trust no Future, howe'er pleasant!
Let the dead Past bury its dead!
Act -- act in the living Present!
Heart within, and God o'erhead!

Lives of great men all remind us
We can make our lives sublime,
And, departing, leave behind us
Footprints on the sands of time;

Footprints, that perhaps another,
Sailing o'er life's solemn main,
A forlorn and shipwrecked brother,
Seeing, shall take heart again.

Let us, then, be up and doing,
With a heart for any fate;
Still achieving, still pursuing,
Learn to labour and to wait.

Billy Joel
Goodnight My Angel

Goodnight, my angel
Time to close your eyes
And save these questions for another day
I think I know what you've been asking me
I think you know what I've been trying to say
I promised I would never leave you
And you should always know
Wherever you may go
No matter where you are
I never will be far away

Goodnight, my angel
Now it's time to sleep
And still so many things I want to say
Remember all the songs you sang for me
When we went sailing on an emerald bay
And like a boat out on the ocean
I'm rocking you to sleep
The water's dark
And deep inside this ancient heart
You'll always be a part of me

Goodnight, my angel
Now it's time to dream
And dream how wonderful your life will be
Someday your child may cry
And if you sing this lullabye
Then in your heart
There will always be a part of me

Someday we'll all be gone
But lullabyes go on and on...
They never die
That's how you
And I
Will be

REM
Everybody Hurts

When your day is long and the night,
The night is yours alone,
When you're sure you've had enough
With this life,
Well hang on

Don't let yourself go,
'Couse everybody cries
And everybody hurts sometimes

Sometimes everything is wrong
Now it's time to sing along
When your days is night alone,
If you feel like letting go,
When you think you've had too much
Of this life,
Well hang on

Everybody hurts
Take comfort in your friends
Everybody hurts
Don't throw your hand
Oh, no
Don't throw your hand
If you feel like you're alone,
No, no, no, you are not alone

If you're on your own in this life,
The days and nights are long,
When you think you've had too much
Of this life to hang on

Well, everybody hurts,
Sometimes everybody cries
And everybody hurts sometimes
And everybody hurts sometimes
So, hold on, hold on, hold on...
(Everybody hurts... You are not alone)

Tom showed me this song, it's awesome.

The Big Surprise

I am back. This time, I’m the big surprise,
And I’m hiding behind your sofa.
I’m the culture shock. Temporary block.
And I’ll love you for the next five minutes.
I’m your magazine, ‘cos you read me clean
Without taking any time for pictures.
I’m your hand grenade and your lemonade,
‘Cos I’ll blow up and leave you soured.

Find somebody with a working’ car and drive them crazy, too.

The big surprise is me!

I worked extra hard to pick your birthday card,
You just threw it out and kept my money.
I got up at six to make your favorite dish,
So I sank when you said you weren’t hungry.
Filed your tax return, let some candles burn,
Played Mozart to make your plants grow.
Then I clipped the trees, got down on my knees,
Not to work, just to pray you’d see me.

Find somebody who will paint your house, and gloss them over, too.

Daniel Bedingfield
If You're Not The One

If you’re not the one then why does my soul feel glad today?
If you’re not the one then why does my hand fit yours this way?
If you are not mine then why does your heart return my call
If you are not mine would I have the strength to stand at all

I never know what the future brings
But I know you are here with me now
We’ll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with

I don’t want to run away but I can’t take it, I don’t understand
If I’m not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am?
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?

If I don’t need you then why am I crying on my bed?
If I don’t need you then why does your name resound in my head?
If you’re not for me then why does this distance maim my life?
If you’re not for me then why do I dream of you as my wife?

I don’t know why you’re so far away
But I know that this much is true
We’ll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with
And I wish that you could be the one I die with
And I praying you’re the one I build my home with
I hope I love you all my life

I don’t want to run away but I can’t take it, I don’t understand
If I’m not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?

‘Cause I miss you, body and soul so strong that it takes my breath away
And I breathe you into my heart and pray for the strength to stand today
‘Cause I love you, whether it’s wrong or right
And though I can’t be with you tonight
And know my heart is by your side

I don’t want to run away but I can’t take it, I don’t understand
If I’m not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?
