"Daymares" (excerpt)
While we were together
They painted the sky
I
looked out and saw
A Michelangelo
And when I saw in my
chair
It smiled
I wondered
Can I walk down the street
With my
earlobes dancing
I might be arrested
Dressing was difficult
Clothes would not come on
My coat tightened
The shoes were hiding
I started to walk
My head in a cloud of you
I
fly like a drunken pilot
"Sticks And Stones"
(excerpt)
Love is like water
It can take any shape
What is our love like?
If I were the page
And you the printed word
We would be
together
My leaf and your letter
Until we both would crumble
If I were the flower
And you my stately stem
We would grow
together
Through all kinds of weather
Until the snow would fall
If I were red wine
And you my tilted bottle
We'd spend
centuries in cellars
And when they broke you open
I would not come
out
