Hostesses who entertain much must make up their parties as ministers make up their cabinets, on grounds other than personal liking.

Bang Your Pans If You Wish
Bang your pans,
If you wish...
With empty cans,
If you wish...
And then demand,
If you wish...
To make your situation,
Like a personal damnation.
Bang your pans,
If you wish...
With empty cans,
If you wish...
And then demand,
If you wish...
To make your situation,
Like a personal damnation.
You're not the only one,
Who has loaded shoulders.
Today the young and older ones...
Have little to eat.
You're not the only one,
Whose shoulders are bent over.
Who needs to lay their head somewhere,
And get some sleep!
Bang your pans,
If you wish...
With empty cans,
If you wish...
And then demand,
If you wish...
To make your situation,
Like a personal damnation.
Bang your pans,
If you wish...
With empty cans,
If you wish...
And then demand,
If you wish...
To make your situation,
Like a personal damnation.
Don't give up your hope.
To swing from a rope.
Or choke up on tears,
Or fears to threaten.
Show more strength and cope.
And leave your mind open.
Don't shut it close!
Bang your pans,
If you wish...
With empty cans,
If you wish...
And then demand,
If you wish...
To make your situation,
Like a personal damnation.
Bang your pans,

Bang your pans,
If you wish...
To make your situation,

Like a personal damnation.
Bang your pans,
If you wish!

The William Challenge
steel cabinets have always been
closed and cold
that's where treasures are kept
and dandruffs are what steel
cabinets are made of,
rusty feelings, exclusions of
the hairsplitting documents
and last wills, they all belong there
you get dandruff from so much
worries, afraid to take the plunge
the warm bath, and steel cabinets
are pretty much like that,
afraid to open, keeping things
to themselves, locked in their own
selves,
now you must write about
something not about love
if you're not convinced
about the worth and
necessity of writing
about it.
try hate.

There are several types of "liking"
Liking because directed to like
Liking because choosing to like
Liking and still doesn't know why could like

Monster
they know they
are losing grounds
because they are
not native, native
to the land, which is
all that matters
they also know
that all would be
losing grounds
if this frustrating matter
is not handled with
proper care
they have put in
so much of the work
to make sure
everybody thrives
and they hope all
would know but racism
seems to be a monster
that always rears its head
at the wrong places
and wrong time
the devil shrouded
itself to be the mother
of those who would
lose grounds materially,
spiritually all round

Apart from being interested in a good role, I think it's necessary to make up your mind as to whether it will make a movie that will entertain an audience all over the world and not just in your own backyard.

To Start All Over Again
i would like to start all over again
i will not change anything
i only have to add
what i did not have once
it will be someone
not to your liking, it will be someone
whom i can share my life with
it will be someone whom i could care
someone that i could die for
someone who can make me live again
and make me feel complete
i shall hear someone babbling
struggling to talk with me
it can be laughter, it can be a cry.

We, How Can We Be Lonely?
We. How can we claim that we are lonely?
We raise their skirts, we grow among the wild flowers
We are taking the climb of mountains and trees
We make windows, and raise brick walls, and
Slide on wooden floors
We are sustained by our laughter and whistling
On those threatening days
Until this day
Not thinking that we end, or that days fold up
And lay hidden in the cabinets of silence
This cup
How can this be empty? How can life diminish?
We fill this up, we make it overflow its brim.
We make life the way we must.
We are strong and determined.
We believe in ourselves.
We believe in the force within us.
With God, who can be against us?

The Rattlesnake
i see to it that i read a poem a day,
like an apple,
or a sunrise that i must but watch quickly
because i have to go somewhere else
what you have to offer is a litany of your
pain, that rattlesnake that hid somewhere
and which you cannot find despite grandpa's help
you molt
i do not have much time left as i too have to chase
my own snakes
that make the sound during the night
but so silent during the day
that no one hears them
or believe that they all exist
i make it up for you
that there is no snake that cabinets are only for our clothes
i eat smiles for breakfast and save every morsel of it
when the night comes.

I Need Love
(kipner/parker)
Its nothing personal
In other circumstances
Another place, another time
I would take my chances
Oh, I know I could take you home tonight
But I dont want to wake up with you, wishing I was alone
Ah, dont rush, cause when the timings right, Ill know
I wanna be sure
I just cant play the game anymore
Im not looking for a band-aid on loneliness
Im not looking for a temporary get-me-through-the-night
Im holding out for something more than physical
I need love to make the sex right
Its nothing personal
In other circumstances
Another place, another time
And I might take my chances
I want you, and Im not hiding from the way I feel
Ive been trying to fill this empty heart with something not real
And I dont want to live like that anymore
In a world gone crazy, these days youve really got to be sure
So Im not looking for a band-aid on loneliness
Im not looking for a temporary get-me-through-the-night
Im holding out for something more than physical
I need love to make the sex right
Times are different than before
Good things are worth waiting for
Its nothing personal
In other circumstances
Another place, another time
No Im not looking for a band-aid on loneliness
Im not looking for a temporary get-me-through-the-night
Im holding out for something more than physical
I need love to make the sex right
I need love (its nothing personal)
Im not looking for a band-aid on loneliness
Im not looking for a temporary get-me-through-the-night
Im holding out for something more than physical
I need love to make it feel right
(its nothing personal)
Im not looking for a band-aid on loneliness
Im not looking for a temporary get-me-through-the-night
Im holding out for something more than physical
I need love to make the sex right

U&u&me
Let's get to know each other better
In a special way
I think about you, baby
Each night and day
But you're always hanging out
With the girl next door
You do each other's makeup
And so much more
Friday slumber parties
When your parents are gone
I think about you girls
How we can get it on
(chorus)
U & u & me
Together we make three
In perfect harmony
Just u & u & me
U & u & me
Together we make three
A perfect fantasy
Just u & u & me
U & u & me
Together we make three
When i think about you girls
It makes me feel so fine
And when i call you on the phone
I need the party line
Playing spin the bottle
Kisses sweet as wine
I must've won the lotto
To hit you and you and i
(chorus 2x)
Listen girl
When you kiss me
On my mouth
And down my neck
All at the same time
When you both whisper different things
Into different ears
I can't try to pretend girlfriends
U & u & me
Together we make three, whoa
U & u & me
Together we make three, whoa
(chorus 2x)
U & u & me
Together we make three
U & u & me
Together we make three

Beauty is about perception, not about make-up. I think the beginning of all beauty is knowing and liking oneself. You can't put on make-up, or dress yourself, or do you hair with any sort of fun or joy if you're doing it from a position of correction.

Partying
Entertaining is a toy, full of joy,
Mightn’t it rain with cosy friendship.
Bawdy words come along on the day we met,
Uncouth manners lead astray the very gaiety.
The festive mood partakes in revelry of love,
A witness decocted the loving party-eyes.
Lawbreaking becalmed nevertheless,
The party air wicked, parties were never like this.
Partying eyed those who worked on terraces of food,
Nutrients mixed to combine our blood, this whole sludge.
Entertain me no longer, entertain my friend who lived
A long time ago.
