When I Go Dreaming
Oh when I go dreaming 
Off to the River of Gods 
To Easter Island 
To the Palace of Minos 
To the Temple of Poseidon 
To the Acropolis 

Youth and Demon Death 
To the Gate of the Lion 
To the Gate of the Fish 
Off to the horizon 
Off to Mount Everest 

To the Sea of Tranquility 
To the soft sands 
To my lover’s arms 
With you I will go 
Until all is gone...

Meteorite
Meteorite

Comet, fast at last, Here!
Hidden from the storm, 
Fires in the House of Glory, 
Cards prepared to win.

Memphis, Minos, Minus,
Just another rhyme, 
When you drop that dine, 
Kidding or not!

Won that space & time
Destructive by force, 
Concrete with desire, 
Comes with fire!

Broken into pieces
There is no need. 
For you to fuss or kid!
Time has gone, like a meteorite!
