somebody called daylight,
told her the frost had knocked,
and a heart was cold,
and she said a ray was warm,
and smiles were to come,
and she heard that none so strong,
could turn that around,
and she smiled,
told of beauty on the rose,
and melodies of a cockatoo,
and so love rained,
in rays that grew,
and that smile was brought
"There are confessable agonies, sufferings of which one can positively be proud. Of bereavement, of parting, of the sense of sin and the fear of death the poets have eloquently spoken. They command the world's sympathy. But there are also discreditable anguishes, no less excruciating than the others, but of which the sufferer dare not, cannot speak. The anguish of thwarted desire, for example."

last temptation
there was a cigar,
a dance hall boom and smoke,
and she danced to his eye gaze,
moves,
she did whine for him,
and a beer came,
a pop of the cap,
the frizzle,
a sip,
and he had won the battle,
a last temptation..

Take heart little fella
he sat and stared as they laughed,
in an evening fall,
and a downing rain,
in their joy he found amusement,
he did not fit,
and as they chatted the darkness in,
he raced thoughts to the lone road he took,
up into the ghostly forest,
into the whistling beast that on many feast,
to disappear into the welcoming hands,
of a never failing fog,
to the freezing shack he called home,
and so he sat amazed by they,
not a little sadness on his face,
but a clot of a tear that life had given,
in an evening fall,
and a downing rain,
in their joy he found amusement,
he did not fit,
and as they chatted the darkness in,
he raced thoughts to the lone road he took,
up into the ghostly forest,
into the whistling beast that on many feast,
to disappear into the welcoming hands,
of a never failing fog,
to the freezing shack he called home,
and so he sat amazed by they,
not a little sadness on his face,
but a clot of a tear that life had given,

Always a sad song
There are tears,
falling dew on wilting lilies,
fog in mourners den,
pity a tune none shall sing,
inhumane laughter in deepness of pain,
always a sad song played,
always a sad song sang,
falling dew on wilting lilies,
fog in mourners den,
pity a tune none shall sing,
inhumane laughter in deepness of pain,
always a sad song played,
always a sad song sang,
