Not Normal
What is normal?
I have skin, eyes to see, a nose to smell, a mouth to eat, ears to hear the songs I love.
Normal but feel like extraterrestrials from above.
I yearn to travel to places I have never seen.
Will I feel normal when I go across sea?
I understand people more than

Open Minded Ike
Open minded Ike, who hailed from County Pike
Inherited a classic Indian Motor Bike
Being open minded and concerned it might offend
He buried it in the land fill of South Bend
Open minded Ike lived on the old family farm
Being concerned with the climate change alarm
He killed off all the cattle and hogs
Keeping only a couple of sheep

Open-Minded
Walk with fire, burn your soul
Burn, burn
Inhale the present, face your fears
Open-minded
Taste the desire to be left alone
Sweet, sweet
Question becomes answer
No cheek turned, shut your eyes
Closed, closed
Sweet rain, frosty sunshine
Hail raging around, down on your face
Down, down
See and feel what isn't there
Complicated lies, floating words
Walk with fire, burn your soul
Burn, burn . . .
