It was noon when I got the call
Jewelry store robbed at the mall
It was a young man, very tall
Spoke with a drawl   Spoke with a drawl

In the store, I'd been permitted
Where a theft...

\(Monotetra/ Hourglass) 


I meditate and hope you come 
There's chaos and folks in pain numb 
If you don't, what of us become 
there's so much glum,there's so much glum.

at the fantasy of ignoring the daily grind.

A Monotetra

Spirits arise into moonlight,
bats flit in blue twilight,
broomstick riders soar in flight,
upon this night, upon this night.

The tiny goblins, ghosts out there,
collecting candy without care,
hearts of gentility, they bare,
costumes they wear, costumes they wear.

Etheric...

I had one that quickly decayed

A Monotetra

I moved into a haunted house,
the ghost there was, an obnoxious louse.
he’d sneak up on me like a mouse,
my hair he’d touse, my hair he’d touse.

My best underwear, he hides,
he’s a pervert, I surmise,

You may see a fluttering bee,
in the forest, or on a leaf,
of some sweet and gummy tree;
leave him be, leave him be.

War with nature's a losing one,
it's just like spitting at the sun
No matter what, nature has won.
It is not fun. It is not fun.

Hollow faith caress bruised esteem
scars hidden underneath the seam

aborted dreams,aborted dreams

fractured by lustful invasion
modesty lies among treason
Why victims are pinned as reason?
unfold questions, unfold questions.

drenched in shame, locked in guilty vault
she gulps...

Tail thumping with a rhythmic beat

out on the lake, a moonlit night. 
bats' swoop, drink, skip, to my delight! 
missed sleeping ducks put them to flight! 
we duck in fright, we duck in fright!

really had no...
