Midnight dreamer;
I am standing in the flames of morrow;
Flesh clings to my joints;
I am on search for tomorrow;
I can’t feel my soul, soul, soul

I am burning up inside, inside, inside

Shadow dancing, fires cooling out
Daylight laughter
Night...

Arooooooo
this lonely wolf

Arooooooo
this lonely wolf

out on the hunt

the night is dark

what to find
what to find 

tonight

the drunks stagger
that will not satisfy
the taste is gamey
though they put up little fight

I seek a battle to last all...

Bank robber
Back in sixty-three

For much skullduggery

Raiding banks, petrol stations

And wake his giant angel
Who very loudly snored
With booties bonnets mittens

SILVER
Silver is the twinkling stars
Silver is spilled moonlight 
Silver is a fairy’s wings
ready to take flight-
A baby’s laugh

and silver spherical decorates.
The highest pitch of a piano’s tinker
Is silver
And...

In Arabic – hau-hau, how-how
Armenian – haf-haf
In Cantonese – wow-wow, wong-wong
Bulgarian –...

Blissfully reigning in his monkeyrium
Over his stuffed ape and monkey collection
My special child boasts of dinosaurium
That display his toys, subduing extinction.

Behold him linger in his edenic haven
Oblivious of echoing meow-arf-arf sounds…
“Oh, how good God* is...

Jackson the Pug Dog,

He is only thirteen inches long,
Looks like he's coming as he goes

But you know he doesn't have much choice,
