She is many things,
like what Spring brings to shivering wings,
creatures like us sing from her touch, fly to her much,
feeding from the everlasting song her beauty transmits,
Linda's face is always strong, sage, and sensuous
as a symbol of liberty that says to the fatigued free thinker
you...

my love, stay gently wild

and foxtrot with me

to swirl in flaming dips

of night… heavenly!

Come dance in the waters
that summer has warmed
amidst the froth of the seas
Hear the sighs that echo from tides
as the crescents ripple in breeze
 
Join the surfers 
as they ride in on the waves
balancing bravely so tall
watch as their confidence grows so high
until showing off...

Drowning in self degradation
Deliberate affliction is exacerbating

Finality, deaths creeping in
Exodus, my last syringe...

I was out of control, spinning 
on the whirligig of youth, 
giddy to be caught 
in what Kerouac called

of everything to come."
I didn't know what to expect. 
I was ready for nothing
though I had spent years

Mami Swirl   Rapper girl
Distant Star
Songbird in the morning mist
Hold me   Against the dawn
From the wrong
That this life has now to bear
For you’re the one that we loss
The one we loved so well
The one with the big, broad grin

Lights swirl,
Bodies twirl,
Against an orchid sky,
Each open eye,
Sees the beauty in life,
Thrown away all strife,
To spend this time,...

Swirling vortex i will contain your power
And so i did with extreme force
I see the root of man i am the tower
My strained success leaves my voice hoarse

I will power your city with a finger, behold
Indestructible fossil fuel forever powering
Ill replace the shine of pure...
