Corruption Is Not Fought
The war was lost
Not for want of weapens,
Not for want of skills
But for want of will.
Corruptions would stay.

The skills that we have are the actual magic skills - not the performing skills. We have to separate those. But the actual skills that make the tricks work, we don't get to use again.

In Dismal Gorge
The lost can stay lost down here,
in laurel slicks, false-pathed caves.
Too much too soon disappears.
On creek banks clearings appear,
once homesteads. Nothing remains.
The lost can stay lost down here,
like Tom Clark's child, our worst fears
confirmed as we searched in vain.
Too much too soon disappears.
How often this is made clear
where cliff-shadows pall our days.
The lost can stay lost down here,
stones scattered like a river
in drought, now twice-buried graves.
Too much too soon disappears,
lives slip away like water.
We fill our Bibles with names.
The lost can stay lost down here.
Too much too soon disappears.
Life Time Teaches
it was difficult
if you had the skills
it would be easier
it would be easy
or it would be easier
with acquired skills
it was difficult
now you have requisite skills
learning can be difficult
who will teach?
life time teaches
our soul grows

A Way Of Life Professed
he is lost
he intends to be lost
in the crowd
he never
belongs
to anyone
he is lost
he loves to be lost
forever
he has no world
no place
to stay
he has no breasts to hold
and keep
him in place
so keeps on looking
somewhere
where he can have a place
where he
can stay put
he is not afraid to become
a stone
only if he can find
a home
there is no one
no place
and he learns it after
so many
fears and then
he begins to love
this feeling
got stuck to
being lost
as a way of life
professed.

I Caught Fire
Seemed to stop my breath
My head on your chest
Waiting to cave in
From the bottom of my...
Hear your voice again
Could we dim the sun
And wonder where we've been
Maybe you and me
So kiss me like you did
My heart stopped beating
Such a softer sin
(I'm melting, I'm melting)
In your eyes
I lost my place
Could stay a while
And I'm melting
In your eyes
Like my first time
That I caught fire
Just stay with me
Lay with me
Now
Never caught my breath
Every second I'm without you I'm a mess
Ever know each other
Trust these words are stones
why cuts aren't healing
Learning how to love
I'm melting (I'm melting)
In your eyes
I lost my place
Could stay a while
And I'm melting
In your eyes
Like my first time
That I caught fire
Just stay with me
Lay with me
(Stay with me lay with me now)
You could stay and watch me fall
And of course I'll ask for help
Just stay with me now
Take my hand
We could take our heads off
stay in bed just make love that's all
Just stay with me now
I'm melting (I'm melting)
In your eyes
I lost my place
Could stay a while
and I'm melting
In your eyes
Like my first time
That I caught fire
Just stay with me
Lay with me
In your eyes
I lost my place
Could stay a while
and I'm melting
In your eyes
Like my first time
That I caught fire
Just stay with me lay with me
(Stay with me, lay with me)
In your eyes
Let's sleep till the sun burns out
I'm melting in your eyes (I'm melting in your eyes)
Let's sleep till the sun burns out
I'm melting in your eyes

Seek the less knowing
Show your skills to those having not it.
Then only you will get applause.

Oooh Grandma, what a big ovophil you are...
My granma, whose skills are legend,
taught me beside these skills
that only granmas know
her secret name she uses when she writes her poems.
It's 'ananym'.
You'll need Webster for that.

If I Lost My Way
Written by: neil diamond and gary burr
If I lost my way
Would you stand with me
Would you love me still
And care for what I need
If I lost my way
If I lost my faith
To face up to the test
Would I let you down
Would you love me less
If I lost my way
Tell me Im afraid without good reasons
Say that Im a fool to feel this way
Could it be the me that you believed in
Is all you really need to make you stay
If I lost my way
If I lost my way
If I lost my dreams
Could I keep your trust
Promise that our love
Would not turn to dust
If I lost my way
Tell me Im afraid without good reasons
Say that Im a fool to feel this way
Could it be the me that you believed in
Is all you really need to make you stay
If I lost my way
Would you stand with me
Would you love me still
And care for what I need
If I lost my way
If I lost my way
If I lost my way
If I lost my way

When I Argue I See Shapes
I'm not really sure of all this pressure,
i'm never going to lose any of my old letters
They'll stay with me, until i can see,
until i can see that i'm no-one
They'll stay with me, until i can see,
until i can see that i'm no-one
So don't slight it off cuz you'll be fined,
don't start slighting off cuz you'll be fined
All you ever do is build it up inside,
All you ever do is build it up inside
I'm not really sure of all this pressure,
i'm never going to lose any of my old letters
They'll stay with me, until i can see,
until i can see that i'm no-one
So don't slight it off cuz you'll be fined,
don't start slighting off cuz you'll be fined
All you ever do is build it up inside,
All you ever do is build it up inside
You smoke too much when you talk too much,
and when i argue syd barrett makes me laugh
I laugh at your conversational skills, or lack of
I laugh at your conversational skills, or lack of

Lost My Way For You<3
I lost my way for you
And yet you still ignore me
I lost myself when you never said goodbye
And you still block me out of your life
I lost you
And it was the biggest mistake you ever did
You lost your ways for me
And I still cry for you and try to help
You lost yourself when I said I couldn't help
And I wish I was still talking to you
You lost me
And I've never been more hurt in my life
We lost our own ways
And we still stay silent to each other
We lost ourselves when we saw each other
And we don't know what to do
We lost each other
And I never got to say... goodbye

Nay, men are so far from musing of their sins, that they disdain this practise, and scoff at it: what say they, if all were of your mind; what should become of us? Shall we be always poring on our corruptions?

Something Better
I won't say anything
i'm hiding in the pink
if I move will I break the spell
or am I boring you?
I can't feel anything
i'll think whatever you think
you took me riding on the big wheel
so I guess i'm happy now
and i'll stay with you
and i'll lay with you
and i'll always be there
nothing will go wrong
til something better comes along
so now you've swallowed me
come and finish off the rest of me
we'll build a house with cactus lights
spend perfect days and sleepless nights
whatever
(whatever)
and i'll stay with you
and i'll lay with you
and i'll always be there
nothing will go wrong
til something better comes along
and i've lost my fingerprints
and i've lost my sixth sense
but you just don't feel a thing
when the needle's going in
and i'll stay with you
and i'll lay with you
and i'll always be there
won't go nowhere
and i'll stay with you
(til something better comes along)
and i'll lay with you
(til something better comes along
and I will stay
and I will lay with you
(til something better comes along)
(til something better comes along)
(til something better comes along)
(til something better comes along)
so now you've swallowed me
come and finish off the rest of me

At times those skills were really hard to do because not only was I having to contend with the camera, but I was having to learn these new skills and the ball was always kind of doing what you didn't want it to do. So it got a little bit frustrating at times but we got there.
