TRIM ERIC TRI
TRIM ERIC
Two longhaired lads went to the barber
The one with one ear showing was Eric
Yet some resentment he might harbour
If his haircut style was thought esoteric
The one with one ear showing was Eric
Just a trim he said, and not too short
A few snips here and there he thought
Yet some resentment he might harbour
If the

Eric Patrick Clapton
A rock and blues guitarist and lyricist and singer,
Whose harmonic music and songs, in environs, linger;
One of the hundred guitarists of all times and seasons,
Clapton's musical art surpasses all human reasons...!
'Yardbirds', 'John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers', and then by himself,
He, like a sage, searched for the real music in itself;
"Layla", "Tears in Heaven", "Change

Eric Eyes Cleric
The breaking news is about Eric:
That he now wants to be a cleric,
Eyes on scriptures that once pissed him off,
His time for verses that stirred his cough.
Satan has, since, been mad, tears at nights.
But-trust him - is bouncing back for fights!
Now tells Eric that he is robust,
Bulging muscles all over his bust,
His argument that the

From the Cycle Eric
Do you remember yourself,
When were you ugly and real?
When was the order in the mind,
before you put the order on the face?
What did you bring on after that?
Where did the fading sun lead?

More Than Meets The Eye - inspired by Eric, Kristen, and Jenny
It seems awfully naive to think that you're the only ones
In such a vast universe you know so little about.
There are millions and millions of planets, moons, and suns
That can harbor the possibility of life, throughout.
The smartest people of the human race on planet Earth
Can't even fathom the knowledge of what really exists.
Your species is

***
Sleep of one night
Was cut up into pieces
As a celebration pie.
So much noise because of noise.
It’s your fault I’m in a cold sweat,
That i get wet in the rain ,
That I’m freezing
And admired the maiden Nan !
Cause it’s only your face
I want to find.

To Eric Whitney 1
***
What lies in this?
Are my ears betraying me? My eyes?
Is time betraying me that I have lived?
Crazy creation,
So noble while not young in vain,
At times, shouts the right words
In an ecumenical uproar.
For whom? For the self?
I would like to make the cut where you are,
Look into the insane eyes,
Not move a bit

I know,
You need nothing .
You’ re alone ,
In the desert of winds and storms .
Exuding colors of bronze ,
And excite The lend of Egypt.
You are the stronghold of temples,
Mine,
And Tombs.

***
Confess
In pitch darkness
That your in love with me
Or as I did , to myself
That I’m good and sweet.
But in loneliness can see
Metamorphosis how intolerable and insane i am.
But for this night
It doesn’t matter,
Cause snuggled
We are to gather .
Canvas and ghost ,
Take me up, higher.
We know how to fly
Let us scare

Hear me from the most of lower.
From the well.
From the ground under your foot.
From lowered fist
And the chest pocket.
From the hands of her and yours,
Clasped to gather above the head.
