Look at me
I'm the snow plow man

Snow piles high as it moves off my plow

Wistful Days in the Sun

...Summer weather makes me feel so much better.
The sun suckling on my skin,
The ocean salting my eyes.

But as seasons change,
Winter begins to fog my brain.

Fury

...They say time heals all wounds 
A truth I've known since never
I don't think that angry, screaming teenage girl inside ever let anything heal 
Even on my best days, she's there
Lighting matches a...

Sea Dogs

...the sea is high and running
sails are fighting for the shore
skippers in their shrimp boats

none of us are sailors here
we are washed up on this Tiki bar

Fruit Leather

...You bite that apple!
Give it a go, put on a show
There is no shame

And clams are happy
Do they hop or skip?
Tripping along the seafloor
Playing hopscotch
Eating numbe...

is the condition of the people
compared with warriors and queens.
