Rolled Forth in Peace - with audio

audio link

The notes
Of the rock-band
Were frayed
And clashed
Until they shook
My whole being
In seeming
Reminiscence
Of the earthquake
Earlier that day
But all the while
My heart
Like many waters
Of the oceans
Rolled forth
In peace


Potatoes and Eggs - with audio

audio link


Potatoes and eggs (big breath in)
Sniffin in a whiff
Breathin in the goodness
Set about my business
Havin more than I shoulda
With my brother as my witness
Sour cream and muffin
One banana, orange juice
Down I am stuffing
Mmmmmm, mmmmm!
Yummy, yummy!
I just wanna say
Thank you mummy!

Wrecking Ball - with audio

audio link

I've hurt someone
Now like a wrecking ball inside me
Again and again each memory
Of the people that I've hurt
Slams and hollows this one out
Like an old abandoned building

What a conceited ass
I have become
My hands reach out
All they find is rubble
My nostrils fill with smoke and dust
Ashes and sulfur are my accusers

Tears lay choking and thrashing
Somewhere deep within
Damn the cold stillness
In the granite quarry
Of a pride cramped belly


A balloon filled with putrid air
A glove with no hand to take it
A cloud without rain

As my silence groans
In the growing darkness

Of empty words and
Broken promises 
Trampled love and
Shattered relationships 
Echos, of what was 
And what might have been.
