Back To You Still My Love
all the strange thoughts, i bathe myself with,
feeling the soapiness of the matter and the wetness of all
the newness, i feel clean
about new faces and friends and places
i have never been too,
into all these, fog and mist, and valleys and grass
and winding paths,
all these new, bushes and bamboos
leading me
still to you.

The Plunge
I would bathe myself in strangeness:
These comforts heaped upon me, smother me!
I burn, I scald so for the new,
New friends, new faces,
Places!
Oh to be out of this,
This that is all I wanted
- save the new.
And you,
Love, you the much, the more desired!
Do I not loathe all walls, streets, stones,
All mire, mist, all fog,
All ways of traffic?
You, I wold have flow over me like water,
Oh, but far out of this!
Grass, and low fields, and hills,
And sun,
Oh, sun enough!
Out, and alone, among some
Alien people!

Strange Without You
You know the faces, you know the places,
You know places where the faces fit
You always wanted, to never say it,
and now you wonder, well is this it?
I'm always screaming, dreaming
Strange without you, without you
You know the numbers, you dream in slumber,
You've got the faces and the photographs
You always want it, but never say it,
and now you wonder, well what do I have?
I'm always screaming, dreaming
strange without, without you
without you
strange without you
strange without you
without you
without you
strange without you
strange without you
strange without you
strange without you
without you

T8
there is a winding river
beside tall mountains
you must know that we have
crossed this river
ten times already
it is the same river
winding through the banks
of these foggy mountains
the tall cogon grasses
can deceive us and so
are the boulders of rocks
that lie along our paths
we are grasping for air
to reach the highest peak of these range
of mountains and valleys and
plains
at the topmost
there we can see the truth and negate
that we can never step twice
on that same river that winds through the hillsides
snake, boa, venomous circuitous foggy paths
damned, we stepped on the same river more than twice
this is the tenth, and this is the highest peak
the world is nothing but a winding snake.

Dinner Invitation
if I at this keyboard
proffer
thoughts of how I feel
among the dirt paths
within the valleys green
reduce opportunities
infer profanities
slimming hopes
dulcet rhythms
increasing mirth
whence shall arise
understanding
that only I shall know
offer me
on your keyboard
thoughts of how you feel.

That Lonely Spring Back Home
what i can bring you
is good news
it is like a fresh flower
from Beijing
it has a unique promise
that it
will never change
it is beauty and
strangeness
it is this feeling of loss
this tragedy of having to
leave and
be back again
to your senses
when all strange places
are not at all strange
but imbued with
all that sameness of rocks
and cities
and dust and bushes
everywhere you go
there is only you and there is
nothing
no one else
that suffers for you
it is the universality that finally
burdens you
with
i have nowhere to hide
it is the same face again that greets
you where
you left that last step
and you remember
that old feeling
that you want to discard
but here it
rises again
like spring of water
wetting your face
with
its lonesome
squirt

Red Rocks
walking up the long winding stairs,
The sun is blazing hot,
and i am feverish with the warmth of it,
I feel like reading Jim morrison,
it feels like him here,
reaching the top is like touching the hand of god,
it feels like your first date,
my fingernails are raking the red rock
as my mind plunges into the only thought I have,
I am on top of the world,
I want to fly,
Winding down
off the paths,
down the mountain,
we must be still
a rattlesnake green and goddess sent
lies sunning in the dirt,
ride the snake,
Ride the snake,
dead poet in my head
you are right,
No I say I am afraid,
Suddenley I am brought back again,
and you are gone,
still through the bushes, a flicker of a tail
then no-more

Time
Written by ricki & kim wilde
They say that love is a dangerous thing
And hits your heart like a revolution
And all the pain it can bring
Will only lead to confusion
But now that love has come into my life
Well Ive discovered a different meaning
And theres no danger at all
Its just a beautiful feeling
I konw its wrong to keep it inside for so long
When we both could see it coming
It was just a matter of time
Time
Falling in love with you was just a matter of time
Falling in love with you
It seems so long ago we were just friends
Different people with different faces
Just getting on with our lives
Isnt it funny how fate is
But I know its right the way that were feeling tonight
Cos we both could feel it coming
It was just a matter of time
Time
Falling in love with you was just a matter of time
Baby, I knew with you it was just a matter of time
Something so good was worth waiting for
Now its easy to say that I love you
When youre feeling it too
Cos we knew in our hearts
That is was just a matter of time
Falling in love with you

I Am There (Fiendship)
Come on know this is a feeling that we can no longer hide,
Surely it is not going to keep from being by your side.
No matter how you feel, it can be either happy or sad,
Being by you is something that I am going to do even if you are bad.
I know there are times that we will both show are happiness and sorrow,
But let's remember that we are both here as friends and can help each other get through tomorrow.
Yes, this might seem kind of strange,
But I am tired of hiding my feelings about you and our friendship because it will never change.
I hope you accept me as I am and I am there for you no matter what you say,
I am never going to change my way.
We need to remember this that we have been friends for a while,
And you have always been there to change my tears to a smile.

Wetness
Keeping it a thought you detest...
Is a kept confession,
You love wetness.
You're no different than the rest.
Those who undress quick,
For sex and wetness.
Denying heat wont make it go away.
Saying something different,
Is in conflict with your mission.
Keeping it a thought you detest...
Is a kept confession,
You love wetness.
You're no different than the rest.
Those who undress quick,
For sex and wetness.
Lie about it!
Try to hide those naked wishes in your mind.
Deny and fight it.
But you know fresh meat is what you want to find.
To bump and grind as you're sighing.
Keeping it a thought you detest...
Is a kept confession,
You love wetness.
You're no different than the rest.
Those who undress quick,
For sex and wetness.
You despair for nakedness and wetness.
You want it there,
Some sex and wetness.
Keeping you uptight at night,
And restless.
Ooooohhhyeah...
Keeping it a thought you detest...
Is a kept confession,
You love wetness.
You're no different than the rest.
Those who undress quick,
For sex and wetness.
mmmmm...
That sex and wetness.

Newness
The newness of life,
The newness of love,
The newness of peace,
The newness of care,
And like the free gift of your muse to me;
But, the Law is spiritual to us all.
Wretched,
An adulteress;
For, those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh!
The earnest expectation,
Consider your ways and your acts;
For those who are os the flesh cannot please Yahweh! !

Strange Night
Get out that wig - I know you
Put on those shiny pointed shoes
We'll have a strange night
Corsage - long gown - all the rest
That ain't what we call dressed
For a strange night
You're gonna lose who you are
We could take it pretty far
Can there ever be any harm
No one will know you
You won't show
Feels wild like we used to
Just tonight that the feeling's right
We'll wear a disguise that won't
show through
We'll go out in the old red car
You can sit in the bakc seat and play
your guitar
If the blue lights flash while we're rockin
Don't you worry I'll do the talking
And tell it right
You're gonna lose who you are
We could take it pretty far
Can there ever be any harm
No one will know you
You won't show
Feels wild like we used to
Just tonight that the feeling's right
We'll wear a disguise that won't
show through
Let's just stop at random places
Just to see the look on their faces
What a strange sight
Put on that wig - I know you
I know what you like to do
Have a strange night

Plantation Boy
Lots of people walk about proud and free
Lift up your head start looking around
Theres a brandnew feeling of liberty
Like a clear bell thats starting to sound
Plantation boy
Cmon and get going
Yesterdays chains have broken in two
Plantation boy
The new move is growing
Reaching the hills and the valleys and you
Plantation boy
Plantation boy
Lots of smiling faces for you to meet
So many hands to help you along
Just shake off the mud that weighs down your feet
If you stand tall you just cant go wrong
Plantation boy
Cmon and get going
Yesterdays chains have broken in two
Plantation boy
The new move is growing
Reaching the hills, the valleys and you
Plantation boy
Plantation boy
Years of picking cotton for little pay
Living alone in some wooden shack
Sweating in the heat of a summers day
This is all over, you wont come back
Plantation boy
Cmon and get going
Yesterdays chains have broken in two
Plantation boy
The new move is growing
Reaching the hills, the valleys and you

Reaching the hills and the valleys and you...

This Is A Picture Of Me
it is your body
that makes a steel feeling of my drifting presence
i become present
totally beneath you
when i see the wetness of your hair
i feel the earth and grass inside me
there is rain in my head
there is mud on my feet
do not walk away yet
i still have many items to offer
there is fire in my eyes
there is a commotion in my belly
i love to dance with you
in my life
tonight
no, nothing is eternal

The Mower's Song
My Mind was once the true survey
Of all these Medows fresh and gay;
And in the greenness of the Grass
Did see its Hopes as in a Glass;
When Juliana came, and she
What I do to the Grass, does to my Thoughts and Me.
But these, while I with Sorrow pine,
Grew more luxuriant still and fine;
That not one Blade of Grass you spy'd,
But had a Flower on either side;
When Juliana came, and She
What I do to the Grass, does to my Thoughts and Me.
Unthankful Meadows, could you so
A fellowship so true forego,
And in your gawdy May-games meet,
While I lay trodden under feet?
When Juliana came , and She
What I do to the Grass, does to my Thoughts and Me.
But what you in Compassion ought,
Shall now by my Revenge be wrought:
And Flow'rs, and Grass, and I and all,
Will in one common Ruine fall.
For Juliana comes, and She
What I do to the Grass, does to my Thoughts and Me.
And thus, ye Meadows, which have been
Companions of my thoughts more green,
Shall now the Heraldry become
With which I shall adorn my Tomb;
For Juliana comes, and She
What I do to the Grass, does to my Thoughts and Me.
