04-30-18 Testify To The Sky

Kaleidoscope in your eyes
Magic of the mind is not blind
Above us in the skies divine

Open up your heart to the sun
Our joyous celebration has begun
So step on up and have some fun

04-29-18 Need A Lift

When you're feeling down
Lift up someone else's heart
Soon you'll find deep inside
That you feel better too

04-28-18 Cherry Dawn

Sweet coffee in the morning
Moonlight in the evening dew
Take a nice walk under the sky
Breathe in fresh air breezes

Kiss my lips before I leave
Give me all of your love before I go
Red hot fireball sun rises then sets
Cinnamon sunshine spilled out all over

04-27-18 Killer Kittens

Blurry and furry
Curtains for the claw
Cotton tail soft bite
Slay you in your sleep

04-26-18 Elegy For El Quijote

Sucked into the vortex
Cigarette burns on the bar
Drinking with famous ghosts
Screwdrivers fly into the night
Down the halls of talking walls
Through a portal into another dimension

04-25-18 Chelsea Hotel #212

I remember you well
Before they killed you
And tore you down
From the inside out

Left alone and unprotected
Vulnerable to the vultures
Darling of bohemian culture
Who didnt survive the spotlight

And the game would play
Endless raptures on record
The sound of your voice
Wailing out into the night

The ghosts couldn't save you
From the great wrecking ball
When the demons moved in
But your legend will live on forever

04-24-18 Darkness Of The Heart

No joy there
Pain in it's place
I need to find you
But you are nowhere

04-23-18 Flashes Of Humanity

Silent sympathies are serious
Digital information has no love
Limited space for the future world
Plastic bottles clogging up the ocean

People have complicated emotions
Hidden under the surface of a smile
Rising up in the circus of power lust
After the honeymoon rainbow apocalypse

Kiss your soul inside your heartbeat
Psychedelic gifts unwrapped in your mind
Play outside on the lawn in the backyard
Take a chance and fall in love with someone

04-22-18 Simple Summer Garden

Sweet summer morning
Warm fresh air breezes
Colorful flowers explode
A universe of organic life

04-21-18 Under The Lights

Invisible eyes open wide
Looking inside your soul
Size and shape really matter
Out of style but totally cool
Watching the fireworks burst
On a warm night under the stars

04-20-18 Spring Connection

True blueberry skies

With marshmallow clouds 

And green trees budding

Before the sun goes down 

04-19-18 Glamorous

some clown wound up face down
after a night out on the town
it was not as glamorous as it sounds

04-18-18 Whiskey Love

There is a special kind of pain
that only whiskey can cure

So here we are suffering
like it was back in the old days

It's the special kind of love
that only booze can provide

04-17-18 End Of The World Party

Super cool dance moves
True blue excitement shining
Colorful visions of eternal love
All night party out in the woods
Fast life style and electric soda
Pop bubbles burst into the air
Don't look back at the old days
There is no future for tomorrow
So come alive for one night only

04-16-18 Sudden Sunset

Dead birds in the street
Slap back against concrete

Dishonest honeymoons
Anxiety on the cliffs again

Crash rocks swing around
Broken promises turn down

Nothing here to see but blood
Crime scene photos in color

04-15-18 On Golden Wings

You'll never know until you try
You might never touch the sky
So spread your wings and fly
Don't waste time wondering why

04-14-18 Springtime Promise

Saturdays we spend
Together at the park
Walking in sunshine
Holding hands

Weekend subway trips
To Yankee Stadium
Or down to the Village
In love with life

Lazy Sunday shade
Relaxing on a bench
Kids laughing out loud
On the sunny playground

04-13-18 Thirteen Words

Thirteen words in a secret code
Have hidden meanings in subtext
I never realized how crazy you are
Remember that when you fly away
The old sacred texts have been opened
Everything has now been destroyed
Each page is now gone with the ages
Never to be seen by human eyes again

We must resurrect the ancient stories
Or else we will suffer the same fate
Read what the elders have written down
Destruction is upon us if we don't act
Save the world with art and poetry

04-12-18 Dreaming Into Another Reality

Fell asleep on the subway
And dreamt I fell back in time
To a place that never existed
Except in an alternate reality
Where everything was strange

But when I awoke I couldn't tell
If I was in my normal universe
Or somewhere slightly different
Then I began to wonder instead
If I was awake or still dreaming

So here I am now in confusion
Over where I was or if I am
Somewhere under the rainbow
Or back on the train sleeping
In a dream or in another reality

04-11-18 Circuit Breakers

Robots on the rise
Fire inside our heart
Hackers inside our brains
Falling in love is human nature

Machines will break your heart
Evolution of mankind's mind
Temptation of immortality
The path to extinction

04-10-18 Flights Of Fancy

Stuck at the airport
In a horrible downpour
Tornado warning delays
Stranded on the runway

I missed you so far
Almost yesterday again
And when butterflies sing
I'll know you are home

04-09-18 Golden Soul Fix

Worship the night
Breathe fresh air always
Kiss the moonlight shine
Smash your heart out loud
Twist around to see you smile
Faithful to your soulful dreams
Enlightenment is the only way
To move forward through the sun

04-08-18 Fireworks Haiku

Flashes of fire
Colorful lights on display
Bursting in the sky

04-07-18 Tomorrow Was Yesterday

We were promised
Flying cars and hover boards
And I always thought
You'd be with me forever

Now I'm sitting here
In a heavy traffic jam
And I'm missing you
Since you've been gone

04-06-18 Islands Of Illusion

Freak out at home
Like a mutant superstar
On fire in a subway car
City walk run around
Strawberry street syrup
Sailing away in paradise
Kissing under the moonlight
Sparks in darkness glowing
In a punk rock revolution
Block the trap door lock
Snap back and let it fly
In a cinnamon blizzard
Swizzle stick coffee cup
Black pepper jelly beans
Sleep in the parking lot
Barely frozen from winter
Winner without playing ball
Win the award for best lover

04-05-18 Memoirs Of A Superhero

Spiders in your brains
Robots in disguise
Future world on display
Take a ride into adventure

Romantic getaway in space
Fly behind the full moon sky
Swing into action at night
Return to your secret hideout

04-04-18 Underwater Always

Alternative amusements
Colorful candy shells crack
Slip on a slick banana peel
Strawberry steel your sole
On an old awesome afternoon
With cartoon characters soon
To be in full bloom in Florida
Sinking straight down into
The aquatic world of Atlantis

04-03-18 Pictures Of A Hangover

Crowded hot dog madness
We dig the intensity of it
Hang it up loose then tighten
Up the noose with no strings
Attached to you at the hip
Take another sip then hit it
Throw up all over your shoes

04-02-18 Earth Island Love Trip

Syrupy morning wars
Future relationship fire
Fuel storm still surfing
Wild furious love unleashed

Always melt the message
Mood altering suggestions
Suck colors out beyond time
Explosions into existence

Citrus fireworks dripping
Struggle against the law
Twist in the weird weather
Bring new life into the universe

03-31-18 The Devil Inside You

I visit you
Inside your dreams
But you never
Recognize me

I can make
Your dreams come true
If you worship
My sacred teachings

You see my face
In your mirrors
You feel my soul
Inside your heart

I am
Who you've
Always been
But are afraid to be

04-01-18 April Fools

Fool around all over town
Run down to the big top show
Capture a clown and drown inside
Swallow your pride and ride
On dragon wings to the west side
Go home late at night or decide
To stay awake until tomorrow comes
Drinking poison when our luck runs out
Then get arrested in the dark shadows
Get out of jail free and meet me here
We'll do it all again and never end
