At 3 am when she could-
And should have been sleeping. 
Or how she held...

They did not lie to her,
that sickly sweet girl.
The adults were right all along.
If she looks beneath the squeaking springs,
she will find me here.
In the dark,
crouched low with anticipation
and ready for the kill,
I wait for...

The End Times

A locomotive train chugs remote wails,
The tempest brews a calamitous stunt,
Falls of exiting steam, moist teary tails,
A structure of ills desires cured a want.

If you've moved them you're a jerk
I'll look for them myself

I feel the rain
Flowing down my face
Reminding me of tears
on my etched skin tracing
My spirit looks forward
But my brain is backward facing
It has been oh so very long
Since this heart has really spoken
waterworks haven't happened...

when a woman that looks like a chimpanzee 
said can you help find my pussy

Melodrama Tears of Purple Passion

Sobbing rain rips apart the sinuous threads of my blubbering broken heart
I beat my chest in abandoned...

TEARS

Tears as we tumble from the womb
And into the cold, cruel world
Already a sensing of longing
For the warmth and comfort left behind

The pattern is set for life's long struggle
As time slips through our hands like...

At times we all need a good cry,
To let loose what's been bottled up inside.
A single tear is all it takes to release the hurt,
The tears give us some kind of comfort.
Just a single drop...

I was worried about getting a bun in the oven
But when I saw him mincing across the kitchen
I knew I wouldn’t be getting my fingers burned!

I once dated a fireman…

When children run around and they are not in school
Screaming at the top of their lungs and hide
But it...

look into
the eyes
cries within 
the soul
as feelings abort
drops of emotions
as hurt falls down
the child inside

vunerable and weak
in a collection
of the many faces
from years gone bye
upon the face of love
was the one
who cried

suffering weakness
soft feelings

This part

the debut

of my golden era

So many years

of labor from

but a child

continue

The senses fade

Waterworks rush

to precipitous edge

as I study the fall

and its consequence

My eyes are dimmed

Cognition fades

I grew my tresses long

and luxurious

donned a gown

on a...

My beautiful hair is now turning grey -
a sign of age that I cannot deny.
But I’ll fight it until my dying day …
I have huge stocks of my titian hair dye!

My waterworks don’t behave as...

Wagari Maathai,
Boldness,eagerness,harmless
Was for a benefit,
Through melancholy,
You paved in,
To nail down the,
Green glamor.

You turned into waterworks,
When the cut down
Was on process.
Jubilant than ever
when germination flourished.

Likes tots
You looked after,
To see none but their growth,
The nourishment you fought...

The Archer’s arrows find their aim again,
And mocks the sting the Scorpion left behind!

And introduce new hopes by dead ones signed.

The waterworks will follow Man and Fish,

Unchained melodies,
Following me onto the street.
Vividly announcing 
The blues have stolen my beat.

Unsettling notions,
I'm a gluttany for mistakes.
The waterworks arrive,
Drowning my sorrows like lakes.

I made a mistake
It didn't seem that bad.
Would it be different,
If I...

dragging in denim notes 
through a tide-pool creek
laughing lyrics bubbling on
wearing wet my mystique

dragging those blue chords
rinsed in aqua and stone
awash, panting, melodic remember
eight bars rockin' overblown

smokin' blues, roachin' rhythm
trilling trumpet tonin' notes
words sung growling...

Crying like there's no tomorrow
Crying, Bursting into sorrow
Crying like flaming fireworks
Automatically activated waterworks
It hurts
Being pushed down to the dirt
Screaming for support
There's nothing but a deserted fort
Without a care, my nightmare, my despair
Leads me...
