Mist

What remains

ethereal about the

mist

the soft moisture

left

from a casual

kiss

Ghosts

You are
familier
to me
we are
ghosts
from another
time
ancient memories
surface
long forgotten
sensations
hands on hands
arms and bodies
entwined
a passionate
embrace
breathing in
our essence
exhaling
heat
that touches
our bodies
a desert
breeze
we have been
entwined
before
this I
understand
deep
deep
within me
lies a
memory
of you
as you
so
familiar

Good As It Gets

It's as good as it gets

don't have sweats

so it's gonna rain

don't complain

sit by the fire 

and drink champagne

It's as good as it gets

give up the frets

love  is everywhere

stop and stare

see those two kissing

is there some thing your missing?

get out there and find it

put yourself behind it

It's as good as it gets

hedge those bets

the sun will come out

then we'll all shout

and run all about

and

play in the sand

life's so grand

It's as good as it gets

dry those tears

wrap those fears

shift those gears

and

make life dance

now's your chance

It's as good as it gets

soon one forgets

so

just a few lines

like a nursery rhyme

not to heady

but get yourself ready

cause life's just fine

most of the time

It's as good as it gets

joy begets

so no regrets

WHO

Who?

Who?

Was it you?

I want to pound

the earth

I scream

Was it you?

What was it?

What did you do?

Cause doubt?

Steal a life?

Cause a fault

in the fabric

that is me?

An intense

secret

pleasure

for you

A loss

forever

for me.

Escape

There is nothing like a double vodka,

or a toke, or a pinch of coke,

to smooth out the jagged edge

To bring to mind the phantom friends

(again)

to make them mellow, all amends,

sins forgiven, every one

There is nothing like a double vodka,

or a toke, or a pinch of coke,

to make the scalpel keen

so that when it cuts her flesh

(again)

she never feels the wound
