Dedicated to Kyle, My Darling Son
Listen Kate, listen dear,
I have a new word for you to learn.
Tell your ears to clear and hear. 

When you fight shoes and socks,
Throw them down with your eyes round,
It is like the night I dropped my bags,
Fell on my...

No one likes me - they put me on a register,
you must be sick they told me, yes you're right;
my mother made an amazing statement - like this:
'There was nothing more exciting than a twelve year old boy.'
 
Let's digress: all these things happen in...

When you're just a Teen 

(Verse 1)
Backpacks, notebooks
Hair done 
What a good look(look)
Let's start with my shoe game 
It's on point
Can't explain
Peer pressure 
Don't crumble or break
Never worrying about what people say
Mind set
To learn 
Met this boy
How things turned
Never knew how it felt (felt )
To...

Arms and head missing.
Not an accident.
This was intentional.

Bobby Bendarino smiling.
Busting with pride over his handiwork.
Unashamed of his behavior.

Convinced he'd get away with it
He even winked.
Making the young girl's screams louder.

"Damn," I thought,
"Why do I have to be the only one around
When these things happen?"

Eventually, I...

A time when money rules
We can only watch
We dream of what we could have been
While just burning the clock

Don’t take life lightly
It’s never too late 
You can have a second chance
Don’t make the mistake 

You have your solid job
That doesn’t what makes you tick
You move...

5am, the alarm goes off
Who knows what today will bring
Im up for the early worm
Competing with the birds that sing
But today is my day
I’m prepared you see
Maggots in the bait box,
A flask full of tea
Cheese rolls I have made 
These are for fuel
And my thermal...

This is a piece about five rocking girls
At seventeen years old they rocked my world
I think I first heard of them in Sounds magazine
Five girls next door whom entered my scene

The cover of their Album just blew me away
These five American girls, music their say
Behind...

There I was an eight year old girl
On an adventurous whirl 
We had a thing for hanging
I ended up dangling
With a driver that wanted to hurl

these things happen when dramas befall 
I got stuck between the van and the wall
out cold I was lying
driver almost...

I'm Sorry (Duet)


(FEMALE)

Two months had passed, not a day was he late.
He said he'd never let me down, I thought he was great.
But today I sit here, is this the end?
Is he gone forever?  Will I see him again?


I'm sorry for the argument, we...

Come to me, and hurry.
I grow tired of worries.

Come to me,and hurry 
I grow tired of pain.

I offer every single good deed under my name to end this game, this life.

To end the misery dancing down my spine. 
Punching my walls in the morning, upset...

The other day, I saw my mother sitting in a chair.
She was staring at the TV, but she knew that I was there.
The television was not on; it had been off all day.
I don't know what she thinks when she looks at the set this...

Rise along with me like the morning sun 

At this time 
What job I got at my hand 
To rouse me like a nymph 
Placing the tip of my lips 
At the soft ear lobes and breathe hot
While you write love poems 
Keeping your hands...

On this day the yellow flowers bloom

The sun still shines after a million years

Our eyes are sparkling and not shedding tears

The world is so bright; there’s no place for gloom

One may ask me why these things happen.

What a lovely year for us it has been!
