Saturday Night Live

Dedicated To Savanna

You dance before them exposed yet showing them nothing.
You make fascination of innocent fears, turned taboos to art.
You dance a dance of heaven and hell a visual trick for they're tips.

Yet it was in your conversation that brought me warmth.
It was in your honesty that made you most lovely.
It was in your heart to heart where in i lost mine
.
Love more then any tip.
Love for more then tricks.
Love of heart shown and friendship extended.

And in the end a boy became a man.
In the end a closed mind opened.
And in the end though you danced without clothes it was I who truly felt naked.

Graveyard Shift Lament

An angel an evening.
To my counter they come.
I take their money. 
They take my time.
The genuine cost lying somewhere between.

An angel an evening. 
An art museum.
A zoo. 
To look but not touch .
To touch but lack feeling.

An angel an evening.
The rat race slowed for sodas and smokes.
A corner of the world a new nightly.

An angel an evening.
Ever changing drama. 
Ever changing insight.
All in the guise of minimum wage.
