Raggedy Army As morning bathes in spring sunshine A raggedy army stands in line. Unkempt and ragtag, oddly sized, Unarranged, disorganised. Red, a splash among the grey A new parade at dawn each day. Some heads drooping, some held high, A handful gazing at the sky. Fresh and bright to start the morning, Most won’t see a new day’s dawning. In summer’s heat, the same routine...

In the blithe breeze A baby’s hand opens to the light. In a daze, the radiant blaze, towering flower arching toward the golden solar rays. In a time-lapsing daydream, it rises, stretches and unfurls, soaking in and beckoning the sultry Sol, the simmering summer Sol. No wonder it is seen as good luck. First conceived in childish crayon, It bears the ragged, jagged...

A brand new doll, with braids and freckled face, was tossed aside, left caged, with plastic bars. She eyed the blue-eyed spat with no embrace. Though box was dinged, she’d not receive sad scars. Ann’s clean though tossed in attic space; it’s dark. It’s not how she’d imagined play; she’s bored. Alone and lost without a friend - trademark and popularity, boxed...

Goodbye. Alone, and sad. He swings. Fearing a future, dreading his past. What comes next? What happened? His eyes full of a thousand years worth of the pain of loss. Hands knitted together, one grasping the other. Feet dangling helplessly inches above the ground. His mind races Everything else around him slows to a stop and fades to nothing. That one moment,...

Raggedy Mules Ghosts of the past on their raggedy mules, Clichéd and typecast as infidels and fools, Travelling nearby in their caravans of woe And in the blink of an eye know what we know. All that...

Have you ever bought a used car and thought it was good You didn’t even check the motor or under the hood You drive it out the lot and it drives smooth And then the very next day something just aint cool You hear some funny sounds and you see a little smoke And then the car stops after you...

The longing to go back, Back to another time Another place I’m aging, and he doesn't care A different crime He can run He can hide He can he can soar He can fly Away in the Blue box I don’t have one I don’t have a police box I’m all alone I’m stuck here watching every dawn I’m stuck here like mom He won’t take me away Because...

Growing tired of running circles around your eyes. Time to slow the tempo of the jester's soul tangle. Breathe-breathe....breathe my deep blue raggedy sheep. Easy-easy-easy you don't need those happy pills just these bucking, diamond flanks. Chill-chill chill. rest your Velcro heart in my sticky mind. Watch stars climb from frozen naps... time to dream...dream ...dream. Turn each other on. My deep blue raggedy sheep......
