Closed mouth’s don’t get fed
What could happen instead?
The closed voice is never heard
Living shyly is absurd
Sing to the highest beaches
Let your voice ring clear.
Open you mouth for sweet nectar
Listen and you will hear...
Drama
Life worth saving
No matter who
Death is craving
But time ensues
Doesn’t matter
If good or evil
Climb the ladder
Saved upheaval
Looking back
The risk of death
What’s the track
Try your best...
Without a sound
The ship secures
To the outer structure
What endures
Then the reason
For the visit
Not apparent
Not hidden
No one here
Abandoned city
Cannot fear
No one to pity
They rest a minute
Before embarking
No one’s remarking...
Fantasy
Stalker
Talker
Walker
Mark her
Leave
Cleave
Heave
Make believe
Obsession
Possession
Confession
Don’t find them
Want
Hunt
Stunt
Up front
Lear
Hear
Tear
Cape fear...
Crime
Try again
Why my friend
Give it up
On the cuff
Try and try
Me oh my
Again fail
Fire in hell
Lose one
More fun
In it
To win it...
Humour
Trees
Dead
Instead
Full of dread
In the head
Because
The fact
To act
Fast
Is lost
On most
So the trees
All died...
Go
No
I’m scared
Just go
Now
I’ll push you
There, now go!...
Skyscraper
City streets
Busy sidewalks
People seek
Farmhouses
Milk cows
Lazy Sunday
In the now
Leaving one
For the other
Grass is greener
For another...
Old man winter
Leaves his mark
Air cold and sinister
Wind at the start...
I just heard!
This is absurd
Why is it her
A year of torture
Such a mean girl
Not a white pearl
She makes me hurl
Why me it’s too cruel...
