He Who Hesitates
(dorothy wayne, ray rasch)
He who hesitates
When it comes to love
He will never know
The wonder of it all.
A kiss -- a sigh,
Youll never know
If you dont try.
He who hesitates
When her eyes say yes,
Just how much youve missed
You will never guess.
Your chance
Goes by
And its too late
To wonder why.
Dreams cannot replace
The wonder of her smile.
The warmth of her embrace,
Dont let it
Escape you.
When you fall in love
And you feel the glow,
Take her in your arms
Never let her go.
Dont be
The one
To hesitate with love.
~interlude~
A kiss -- a smile
Youll never know
If you dont try.
When you fall in love
And you feel the glow,
Take her in your arms
Never let her go.
Dont be
The one
To hesitate...
Dont be
The one
Who hesitates...
Dont be
The one
Who hesitates...
With love.

If One Hesitates to Produce, One Also Hesitates to Protect
Many do not do well,
In triumphanting with a purpose...
To declare victory,
With faith and beliefs.
Some rather march along as followers...
To relieve themselves of responsibilities.
And with 'that'...
Be accountability free.
Preferring to lay the blame on others,
Who aren't afraid to make decisions...
With a flow of actions directed.
If one hesitates to produce,
One also hesitates to protect.
And those who lead,
Do not assume a comfortability.
Their abilities and capabilities...
Are just not in constant doubt.

Hollywood Holiday
I rode my motorcycle through a watermelon patch
Right on the california freeway
I took my holy Bible on my blessed boogie woogie drive
Cause I know I know I know
Where I go oh lord theyre gonna bless me jive
Poor you poor me
Poor everybody who buy to be
Poor me poor you
Poor everybody who die to do
I parked my motorcycle on hollywood and vine
And sang till my red blood turned boiling blue
I took my sole survival and bore my cross on a string
Cause I know I know I know
What I dear I bear my charm to king
Poor you poor me
Poor everybody who buy to be
Poor me poor you
Poor everybody who die to do

He who hesitates is not only lost, but miles from the next exit.

I Go For Simplicity My Friend
i go for simplicity my friend
because i am poor
i do not go for sophistication
because i am poor
i do not complicate matters
because i am poor
i do not want you to misunderstand
because i am poor
i do not want you to think some more
because i am poor
i do not want to convince you
because i am poor
i do not want you to be with our side
because we are poor
i want all things in their simplified forms
because we cannot afford
any other form of convolutions
we cannot afford another revolution
it will be expensive
and we have no more years to give
to pay for the sponsors

Dali is like a man who hesitates between talent and genius, or, as one might once have said, between vice and virtue.

Seagulls Screaming Kiss Her, Kiss Her
Its raining on the beach
She inches close but out of reach
The waves look painted on
Seagulls screaming
The sea is warship grey
It whispers ''fool! then slides away
Black coastline slumbers on
Seagulls screaming kiss her, kiss her
And all the flags that flap on the pier
Spell why on earth do you want
The fog hides much but one thing is clear
Shes nearer
Dead deck chairs under shrouds
And life belts gape like minstrel mouths
Her hair still smells of salt
Seagulls screaming kiss her, kiss her
Kiss her, kiss her, kiss her, kiss her
He who hesitates is lost
If you want her, you should tell her
Take her by the hand if you hesitate
If you wait, november wins her november will win her
She returns to sand so get ahold of the girl
I say I like your coat
Her thank-you tugs my heart afloat
I nearly didnt hear for
Seagulls screaming kiss her, kiss her
He who hesitates is lost

Be Prepared For It
No woman hesitates to betray you
If circumstances warrant her escape,
With least concerns about your peril.

The Helmsman
O be swift—
we have always known you wanted us.
We fled inland with our flocks.
we pastured them in hollows,
cut off from the wind
and the salt track of the marsh.
We worshipped inland—
we stepped past wood-flowers,
we forgot your tang,
we brushed wood-grass.
We wandered from pine-hills
through oak and scrub-oak tangles,
we broke hyssop and bramble,
we caught flower and new bramble-fruit
in our hair: we laughed
as each branch whipped back,
we tore our feet in half-buried rocks
and knotted roots and acorn-cups.
We forgot—we worshipped,
we parted green from green,
we sought further thickets,
we dipped our ankles
through leaf-mould and earth,
and wood and wood-bank enchanted us—
and the feel of the clefts in the bark,
and the slope between tree and tree—
and a slender path strung field to field
and wood to wood
and hill to hill
and the forest after it.
We forgot—for a moment
tree-resin, tree-bark,
sweat of a torn branch
were sweet to taste.
We were enchanted with the fields,
the tufts of coarse grass—
in the shorter grass—
we loved all this.
But now, our boat climbs—hesitates—drops—
climbs—hesitates—crawls back—
climbs—hesitates—
O, be swift—
we have always known you wanted us.

Evening
the Ford Mondeo
sings
softly treads across the garage floor
listen
as the robin hesitates
and stars hang in the sycamores
