Morning

above the pines
clouds heap-up against the sky
and the blue Peugeot and red Hyundai

before they join the traffic flow
tread lightly to the junction slow

and soon the feint impressions
that they've made
in the tarmacadam fade

Crosstown Traffic

You jump in front of my car when you,
You know all the time that
Ninty miles an hour, girl, is the speed I drive
You tell me it's alright, you don't mind a little pain
You say you just want me to take you for a ride
You're just like crosstown traffic
So hard to get through to you
Crosstown traffic
I don't need to run over you
Crosstown traffic
All you do is slow me down
And I'm tryin' to get on the other side of town
I'm not the only soul who's accused of hit and run
Tire tracks all across your back
I can see you had your fun
But darlin' can't you see my signals turn from green to red
And with you I can see a traffic jam straight up ahead
You're just like crosstown traffic
So hard to get through to you
Crosstown traffic
I don't need to run over you
Crosstown traffic
All you do is slow me down
And I got better things on the other side of town

Crosstown Traffic

You jump in front of my car
When you know all the time
That 90 miles an hour Girl Is the speed I drive
You tell me it's all right
You don't mind a little pain
You say you just want me to take you for a drive

You're just like CROSSTOWN TRAFFIC
So hard to get through you CROSSTOWN TRAFFIC
I don't need to run over you CROSSTOWN TRAFFIC
All you do is slow me down
But I'm tryin' to get on the other side of town

I'm not the only soul who's accused of hit and run
Tire tracks all across your back I can see you've had your fun
But a-darling
Can't you see my signal's turn from green to red
And with you I can see a traffic jam straight ahead

You're just like CROSSTOWN TRAFFIC
So hard to get through you CROSSTOWN TRAFFIC
I don't need to run over you CROSSTOWN TRAFFIC
All you do is slow me down
But I got better things on the other side of town

Yeah Yeah Crosstown traffic
Look out LOOK OUT Look out Baby
Coming through CROSSTOWN TRAFFIC

Napelton’s Hyundai Is The Best

Driving down Okeechobee heading west,
I stop at a car dealership I like best.
Napleton’s Hyundai is where I bought my car,
they are the greatest car dealership by far.
Marco T. Portocarrero made sure I got a good deal,
first time in brand new car, I was thrilled.
Napleton Hyundai has a 1 year warranty,
on your transmission guaranteed.
They will give you a loaner car for free,
when they fix your transmission
getting it back up to speed.
They also have the best salesman around,
Dino Glykas is enthusiastic, he gets the crown.
I will refer my family and also my friends,
I will be a repeat customer again and again.

Like Mountains Lying Far Away And Blue

Like mountains lying far away and blue
love stays constant; it does not become common,
it leaves impressions in the great remembrance

and of this there is something between you and me;
I can never gaze enough at you.
Like mountains lying far away and blue

of which the presence never fades
there is something that looks like true love,
it leaves impressions in the great remembrance

that clings to every other thought,
.as something that does not want to parish.
Like mountains lying far away and blue

your humanity stays eternally true to me,
your face is continually covered with a ray of sun,
it leaves impressions in the great remembrance

and even when your tears shines like drops of dew
our love does stay eternally glamorous,
like mountains lying far away and blue
it leaves impressions in the great remembrance.

Thread Lightly As You Go

Thread Lightly As You Go
Date: February 26,2012


Tread lightly on my heart, sweetheart
Speak soft, and gently go
For locked behind the walls of steel
The pain of sorrow grows

Locked within a rusty cage
A dream in pieces lies
Like diamonds of a moonlit night
Torn from the midnight skies

Whilst round and round, the whispers
Float gentle in the gloom
Just memories in a garden
Where once our passion bloomed

Time has laid to rest, my love
The blooming of my heart
In cold and lifeless slumber
It perished in the dark

Tread lightly, love…tread lightly
So fragile is the glass
Tis fraught with many fractures
And wounds of seasons past

The wind outside is ruthless
The days…so long and cold
A thief of bright tomorrow's
Stepped in to steal our gold

Like a puzzle left unfinished
A poem without an end
My passion's loosed and fraying
No soul to help it mend

Thread lightly, dear…thread lightly
Speak soft, and gently go
Leave only care and mercy
To tend the seeds you sowed

Upon A Maid

Here she lies, in bed of spice,
Fair as Eve in paradise;
For her beauty, it was such,
Poets could not praise too much.
Virgins come, and in a ring
Her supremest REQUIEM sing;
Then depart, but see ye tread
Lightly, lightly o'er the dead.

James Joyce

Lightly Come or Lightly Go

Lightly come or lightly go:
Though thy heart presage thee woe,
Vales and many a wasted sun,
Oread let thy laughter run,
Till the irreverent mountain air
Ripple all thy flying hair.

Lightly, lightly -- - ever so:
Clouds that wrap the vales below
At the hour of evenstar
Lowliest attendants are;
Love and laughter song-confessed
When the heart is heaviest.

On the clouds, having my walk..

Carefully, I step on clouds
Trying to keep self very light.
I let the air to freely flow
Am deeply breathing
Nice.. and.. slow.
Hard to feel the air, it barely moves
Where is the wind? It doesn't blow!
Warm and powerless
I feel so light
That clouds are moving me
From the left, .. to the right
Letting things happen,
I do not fight.
Happily follow my clouds
Walk, jump, run and roll on white white
fluffy clouds
All of a sudden everything stops.
Me too:
I watch the blue bue sky
And slowly raise and open wide
my palms.
Inside,
The left one
eyes opened
My King once a Prince
The right palm
my treasured little princess
almost a Queen..
Amazed, but not afraid
They look around and smile.
Why? ! ?
Because they know,
I won't let go.

If I Were The Sky

When I wake up in the morning
There's something on my mind
And suddenly without warning
Somebody's standing behind
And it's you , babe
And it's you , babe
If I were the sky , I could look down onto you
That one day , if you join me , ev'ry sky will be blue
Ev'ry day with you
You know I still think you owe me
I dream ev'ry night that you do
So what is it that's making me lonely
I've known all along what it is
And it's you , babe
And it's you , babe
If I were the sky , I could look down onto you
That one day , if you join me , ev'ry sky will be blue
Ev'ry day with you
If I were the sky , I could look down onto you
That one day , if you join me , ev'ry sky will be blue
Ev'ry day with you
With you
With you

A Flow of Love

Yeah!
Slow and Slow
ye stare
with eyes-
eyes innocent
as doe

Slow and Slow
you emptied
my cup
A cup
of woe

Slow and Slow
ye vanquished
my foes
hidden
inner foes

Slow and Slow
Ye pour
A wine of joy
in a goblet
with glow

Slow and Slow
Ye stamp
my cells
from
head to toe

Slow and slow
Ye weed out
ignorance
with your
divine hoe

Slow and slow
Ye open
petals
of my mind
for glorious show

Slow and slow
you rescued
me from claws
A dangerous
Maya's claws

Slow and slow
you weeded
out my flaws
habitual
mortal flaws

Slow and slow
Ye brought me
under yoke
A yoke
of divine law

Slow and slow
please come
in my life
with your
majestic flow

Because
Our separation
waiting on death row
our rendezvous
hot desert in a
storm of snow

Tuxedo Junction

Feelin low
Rockin slow
I want to go
Right back where I belong
Way down south in birmingham
I mean south in alabam
Theres an old place where people go
To dance the night away
They all drive or walk for miles
To get jive that southern style
Its an old jive that makes you want
To dance till break of day
Its a junction where the town folks meet
At each function in a tux they greet you
Come on down, forget your care
Come on down, youll find me there
So long town, Im heading for
Tuxedo junction now
Feelin low
Rockin slow
I want to go
Right back where I belong
Way down south in birmingham
I mean south in alabam
Theres an old place where people go
To dance the night away
They all drive or walk for miles
To get jive that southern style
Its an old jive that makes you want
To dance till break of day
Its a junction where the town folks meet
At each function in a tux they greet you
Come on down, forget your care
Come on down, youll find me there
So long town, Im heading for

Join Together

When you here this sound a-comin,
Hear the drummers drumming,
I want you to join together with the band,
We dont move in any ticular direction,
And we dont make no collections,
I want you to join together with the band.
Do you really think I care,
What you read or what you wear,
I want you to join together with the band,
Theres a million ways to laugh,
And every ones a path,
Come on and join together with the band.
Everybody join together, I want you to join together,
Come on and join together with the band,
We need you to join together, come on and join together,
Come on and join together with the band.
You dont have to play,
You can follow or lead the way,
I want you to join together with the band,
We dont know where were going,
But the seasons right for knowing,
I want you to join together with the band.
Its the singer not the song,
That makes the music move along,
I want you to join together with the band,
This is the biggest band youll find,
Its as deep as it is wide,
Come on and join together with the band,
Hey hey hey hey hey hey, well everybody come on.
Come on and join, join together with the band,
We need you to join together, everybody come on,
Hey hey hey, join together with the band.

Oscar Wilde

Requiescat

TREAD lightly, she is near
Under the snow,
Speak gently, she can hear
The daisies grow.

All her bright golden hair
Tarnished with rust,
She that was young and fair
Fallen to dust.

Lily-like, white as snow,
She hardly knew
She was a woman, so
Sweetly she grew.

Coffin-board, heavy stone,
Lie on her breast,
I vex my heart alone
She is at rest.

Peace, Peace, she cannot hear
Lyre or sonnet,
All my life's buried here,
Heap earth upon it.

AVIGNON.

Reality...one

in a field of grass
underneath the morning clouds
a man with a black hat
white polo and marine blue pants
rides on a red motorbike
followed by a brown dog
and a black horse

one upon the other they tread
upon the road that you are talking

blue birds fly the skies
above the poplars

A Girl's Song

The Meuse and Marne have little waves;
The slender poplars o'er them lean.
One day they will forget the graves
That give the grass its living green.


Some brown French girl the rose will wear
That springs above his comely head;
Will twine it in her russet hair,
Nor wonder why it is so red.


His blood is in the rose's veins,
His hair is in the yellow corn.
My grief is in the weeping rains
And in the keening wind forlorn.


Flow softly, softly, Marne and Meuse;
Tread lightly all ye browsing sheep;
Fall tenderly, O silver dews,
For here my dear Love lies asleep.


The earth is on his sealèd eyes,
The beauty marred that was my pride;
Would I were lying where he lies,
And sleeping sweetly by his side!


The Spring will come by Meuse and Marne,
The birds be blithesome in the tree.
I heap the stones to make his cairn
Where many sleep as sound as he.

Slow Motion

Slow motion, slow motion baby
We want our love to last
Everything?s so right, why try to go so fast
It?s easy to lose sight
and then the moments passed
Go easy, go easy baby
You know there?s time for us
Even though this world seems to be speeding up
Maybe we can try to slow things down
Because we need to draw the line
Because we need to make the time
Because we need to sip the wine
Because the clock is running,
and it?s going so fast
The future?s coming but it?s soon the past
It?s here today and there?s no turning back
Go lightly, go lightly baby
In time we?ll find a way
It?s never over ?till it?s over
Why rush it through?
Never pausing to admire the view
Slow motion, well if we get tired
then we can rest awhile
If we?re gonna go, we?re gonna go in style
Isn?t that what life is all abour?

The present moment is nice but it does not last. Living in it is like waiting in a junction town for the morning limited; the junction may be interesting but some day you will have to leave it and you do not know where the limited will take you.

At The Junction

now we must
part ways at the junction
of

this earthy path
where rocks still hurt
it

is time for me to say
what an end
is

all about give me
a smile
at this junction

where you
are no longer you
where i
will

face the light
with open hands
taking me
to

the place called
Home.
