Apostles

So; I divulge to the moon.
I demonstrate eternal life
I divulge credentials
When will I be proud
When will I be happy
I am unhappy
I want to digress and plug
What shall I do
I will digress
I want to go to Greece

Liberation

Humans are said to be social beasts,
A concept blended in Greece.

It seeps into the crumpled eyes,
Flowing down heavily through the body.

A solo artist, scattering unique wildness,
Is like a gentle breeze.

Dry Skin

There was a young lady from Clyde
Whose skin was all puffy and dried
She smeared it with grease
Suntanned it in Greece
And now it's all puffy and fried

kefalonia dreaming

all the bins were out
skies had turned to charcoal grey
as I grabbed my coat

walking in the rain
my mind on fiscardo bay
where its warm and dry

couldn't help dreaming
of hot grecian sun in may
on recycling day

Aphrodite's Letter

As enchanting as the sea,
is your beauty;
farthest my eyes can see,
is Greece embracing unity.

From the farthest south,
a prince in his youth,
will come and offer you gifts
that will end all your Kingdom's rifts.....
