I hear a secret, whispering to me.
The secret chooses me.
Only me, I am the only one.
Over the valley, past the frosty hilltops
Who knows this untold?
Though tempted to tell, not I.

The stars hold only one mind
The mind has a thousand eyes
The world will die down
Before the heart stops beating
For love
Clocks will wind and eventually stop ticking
Before hearts give out

I see the world
Has a path
Through the safety
Of my damp
Deep ditch
Overgrown with
The wild
Like a snake
Coiling around me
My body long gone
My eyes are intact
I see the
Sun blazin...

I have held my hands open forever
I have let rain fill my hands with liquid
Glazing them with a beautiful scene
I have let life gift me with my soul
I hold pride by holding my hands out
I will ho...

No more than
one soul
Scattered the
Earth
Just one
No more than
one has
been found
On search
for more
Just one mind
Compared to
the nights’
thousand minds
Every light a soul

Not a curve or a bend in a parallel line.
The time ticks and tocks for Santa.

The muskets
The words
The guns
The roses wilting to the battle
That would not be likely be beat
The soldiers’ cold faces
Molded by fear and braveness
Outdoing each other
No more trappe...

The unspeakable juggler on a unicycle tamed the lion.
The cunning lion tamer flipped and turned on the trapeze bar.
The lively trapeze artist rode on the unicycle and juggled.

I am on patrol for orb
The gold and bold one will go to me
I search high and low on the go
Driving through I check the dew flowers
I rolled out far to find my dues
No gold balls

Forget about me
That’s the way it is supposed to be.
Forget my soup
Forget my delicious fruit loops.
Forget my voice like an unearthly hum
Going through walls to your ears.

Can’t be believed
Can’t be done
If it was believed and it was done
It would never be
The ripples in the mirror fade away
A person can see it inside but

They each are amazing
Splendid
Every day
Pleasing little kids
But they don’t understand
They fight every day to get their way
To be the best of the best amusement park

Gimme a call in France,
Australia, Europe
Gimme me a call in Hawaii or Texas
Gimme me a call in where I can sunbathe
I will sit in the beach with salt filling moist air

The belly
It will hiss and scratch to get its way
Till he wins as protector
His roar isn’t mighty
It is hairy and soft
It will run and charge
