shall I take the rebound
shall I move the floor
or would it be explained

I could try to ignore
I could be found
or is it all misaimed

should it be forgotten
should I recall
the days of early kindness

I would stray on instance
I would despair after a while
or do a replay revisited

As rain beats the window
and sentiment takes me by surprise
I still don’t get the reason
why I think twice

As sweet pain fills my heart
this well kept frustrations
comfort this hurting ego
all these absurd complications

Memories of the passed days
do realize me again that I talk to much
what the hell am I doing
I seem to loose touch

Am I able to repay
the love I borrow
I wish I could laugh
over this rainy sunday sorrow

(september 11 - 1983, for JJ)

plastic idea in neon glow
on the day that profity counted no more
……..it sold recall it now
the rebound complete did she not compete
with starry nights and her white knights
their shiny armour in ragged style

( call me later and please do that now )
it’s becoming a bore after a while
since glowing in the dark doesn’t count these days
……..and poetry rhymes so many ways
the musak is on she’s really go
it looks all rehearsed
……..(why mention that anyway)
hey Frankie Lee it’s still your call
while people grow uglier
( her urges * my cynism ) = nothing at all

one to call it a day
five to keep it high
one to shift the shapes

oh what will I do with nothing
gonna take a line of credit
pressure’s on
ceiling’s about to drop
something is coming

down

now home is where the word is
the daily question and the butter
so tired of moving
going to be
somewhere
soon

On the brink
and on hold
what’s a name
for this cold
take a stand
not my own
so here I sit
no change as yet
oblivion blue

solo mono can’t get hifi
true brotherhood on the drive by
really up to once and for all
taling weather up the highway
tweaking parachutes in the hall
not here to stay
not here to stay

what is more can’t get less
serving clean out the mess
leaving it outside the door
fixing up another bright new day
what are you all waiting for
not here to stay
not here to stay

commentates reaching conclusions
for the dreamers more illusions
get the bastards what they envision
let us dance now come what may
we all do need some new mission
not here to stay
not here to stay

I can’t believe I am here at all
can’t recall my own face no more
I’ve changed my attitude so many times now
I don’t know what I act out

my mind ’s a total blank, can’t you see
and your style police is running rings around me
your muscle man keeps rattling that Nietsche line
someone give us a horse to whine

would you care to shine your light
on how come that the victor and the victim
get to look like one and other

well there’s no point and this must be the end
you could do me in, I wouldn’t ment
thank you so much for your time
I’ll be thinking till the next time on my opening line

In the quiet desperation
of 11.24 on this
September night -
something got to give -
in this period of 26 years
in the loud seperation
of her and her man
the fool remains
she contains
so much of what has been taken
cashed and carried
out of my soul

It makes me remember
Things
I did not notice

rolling over (maybe twice)
seem to recall some distant moan
I was thinking was it wise
she’s calling mother on the phone {while knitting}
I was blinking (maybe twice) all alone

stop the yawning
somebody now
here I stand
at a dead end
with a warning
sign

Meet me during Winter
And I’ll be ready to please you in Spring
Following your destination
Having nothing left to win

Leave me in the Summer
Or you won’t be able to be denied
Loose you in mystification
Telling me that I lied

I’ll mourn you in the Autumn
Untill I’m finally able to see
Love is the only compensation
That matters to me
