Space Between All Things
All the walls of your house,
were painted in deep blue,
you're at that indecisive age to choose colours that reflect you,
and everything and nothing,
is in the space between all things,
that fascinates as much as it agitates,
words turn me into what I say,
as you pull your yellow stained fingers,
through your un-kept hair,
I noticed that the corners of your jeans,
were folded neatly into squares,
your thoughts are the strangest place that you've ever been,
stranger even than Los Angeles,
it's like a cinema where they never ask you to leave,
So while you wait and are you wait,
and concentrate on being as far away,
from fate so while you wait,
and concentrate on being as far away,
She had a north Atlantic film star grace,
that's why her tears are out of place,
that kind sadness has more style,
so nothing will make her smile,
except as soon as anything happens,
she'll drag me on the street,
and hand in hand we stand protesting,
while everyone is still asleep,
So while you wait and are you wait,
and concentrate on being as far away,
from fate so while you wait,
and concentrate on being as far away,
so while you wait and are you wait,
and concentrate on being as far away,
from fate so while you wait,
and concentrate on being as far away,
Are you wait,
are you wait,
are you wait,
are you waaait,

I Concentrate On You
Whenever skies look grey to me
And trouble begins to brew
Whenever the winter winds
Begin to blow
I concentrate on you
When fortune cries nay, nay to me
And people declare youre through
Whenever the blues becomes my only song
I concentrate on you
On your smile to sweet so tender
When first my kiss you deny
On the love in your eyes
When you surrender
And once again our arms entertwine
And so when wise men say to me
That loves young dreams never come true
To prove that even wise men can be wrong
I concentrate on you.

You don't concentrate on risks. You concentrate on results. No risk is too great to prevent the necessary job from getting done.

Art as Art
Describe a work of art as Art,
Concentrate, concentrate, relieve your heart.
Destiny has a loving feature,
One of us cares for the creature
Who cares of religion and art,
The one of course who dares a dart
On the one behind, on those unfortunate
And dispossessed, the living and compassionate.
My art to live supersedes the living,
Any being corrects the misunderstanding.

One Way Ride
Concentrate, youre on the middle
Of this one way ride
In the center lays the key
To get back off to a while
If you cant solve this riddle
Im afraid youll have to stay
In the ? ? ?
Of underestimated betrayal
See them point in your direction
See the indifference in their eyes
Just living in oblivion
Struggling with too many wires
So youve got to solve this riddle
Other wise you wont get back
So if I were you
I would concentrate on the morbid one way track

Dine Alone
Its a cinch,
to, pass the time with you,
but hard to pass the time alone,
can you take it.
And its true,
true, the couple next to you think you look strange.
Alone, what are your aims,
or do you have any.
Avoid confusion.
You always know,
always know how much your paying.
I concentrate on,
on, what the people say,
the couple next to me.
Pass the salt,
pour it in my wounds.
It looks like you have no friends,
cant keep up with the new trends.
Sorry, sorry, for myself I dont agree.
No, I always go out eating with my best friends.
Its less than normal.
Avoid confusion.
You always know,
always know how much your paying.
I concentrate on,
on, what the people say,
the couple next to me.
Avoid confusion.
You always know,
always know how much your paying.
I concentrate on,
on, what the people say.
I think at times

A Very Simple Poem
once you say
do not write poetry
because
you do not understand
whereas
you like
to embroider
which
thread
you
keep a good
in a little
hole
no wrong
so
you have
embroidered

Portsmouth's Looking Glass
Methinks I see you, newly risen
From your embroider'd Bed and pissing,
With studied mien and much grimace,
Present yourself before your glass,
To vanish and smooth o'er those graces,
You rubb'd off in your Night Embraces.

Healing Part I
Listen, listen
Listen to the voice,
The voice is an illusion
Listen to the voice,
Dont let the words confuse you
cause you need something to concentrate on,
Concentrate on me
You need something to meditate on,
Meditate on me
Listen, listen
Listen to your heart
Tune into the rhythm
Listen to your heart
Beating with precision
Like the waves upon the seaside,
It goes on and on
Like the spinning of the world,
It goes on and on
Listen, listen
Listen for the sound
That is not in the music
Only you can hear it,
Only you can use it
Its the sound of someone breathing,
Its the breath of life
Its the sound that you are weaving
With the thread of life
Listen, listen
Listen to the sound,
Let nothing disturb you
You are in a place
Where nothing can hurt you
If you feel a strange sensation,
It can do no harm
Like the spiral of creation,
It will soon move on

The Floating Feeling
this world is
not a boat at sea
where we
wait for the ports
of our
known destinations
i try sleeping
one day
on the 20th floor
of the hotel
in the city
i feel the floating
distance
above the earth and
the roads
have become simply
threads
of the needle
the world has
become
a cloth where i
embroider
all my longings
for the sky

I Came Back From The Jaws Of The Dragon
I came back from the jaws of
The dragon
I came back to your heart again
I came back from the jaws of
The dragon
I came back to your dream again
Maybe for the first time it wont be
The last time
I came back to your heart again
I came back through the jaws of
The dragon
I came back to tell you where I been
If I was sandanista ohh I would
Assassinate
Somebody who abused abused abused
His mighty mighty privilege
But then somebody would
Assassinate me
For abusing my mighty mighty
Privilege
Cant spend the time on the holes
Got to eatcher donut and forget
About the holes
Dont forget or you might fall in
You got to concentrate concentrate
Concentrate
Im over the line
Im over the line
Im over the line
Im over the line
Dont feel so badly about current
Anxiety
About your frustrations emotional
Uncertainty
Thats the way youre supposed to feel
Thats the way they want you to
Feel
Dissatisfaction dissatisfaction
Massive demoralization family unit
Breakdown
Youre supposed to believe that war
Is imminent
That crime soars and chaos prevails
Then they give you a moment of
Sweet sweet peace
And you become so happy you dont
Send them to jail
