Boredom
I need to take a little walk
i want to shake off every thought
all around i feel disease
i cant find a sense of peace
then i finally hold my own
blinking lights im coming home
so soon
what is it that im waiting for
the message clear as water falls
tells me youve got to go
cause im getting tired of all these lies
and again i find myself getting burnt by something else
when friends become poison whats the cure
take the slide
take the slide
take the slide
take the slide thou shall not feel

Golden Virginia.
Golden Virginia
Going to move you
a brand new spot
where the moon glows
the sun shines hot
going help you grow
in the window
in the window
in the window
how much is that
and never going stop
until weve taken back the beach
the tide were taking what we reach
i feel the sunlight on your skin
i whisper songs that let you shine
now im climbing up the vines
every golden leaf i find
going to move you
move you to a brand new spot
where's there diamonds on the beaches
dirty blood that's cured by leaches
the tooth paste
pours out

Piece.
Piece
I used to get high at my school
never got taught being a fool
running around
head in the clouds
breaking a new set of rules
ive got to admit its getting intricate
a little more intricate all the time

Rain on the windows of a train.
Rain on the windows of a train
A universe of Hayley’s comets streaking across the glass
a million stars blazing meteorite trails
deserts burning, rutted warm canyon
American prairie, Jack Frost sand painting
samiad layers
the Rocky Mountains wall gone, the cosmos empty
moving and still, the world is born, proud
like a forest of trees
each drop contains countless solar systems
what would happen if one merged with another?
Above the Grand Canary a storm of shooting stars
the race is on, sliding prophecies
these stars are like seeds rushing towards an egg
“Roll up Roll up, place your bets”
each with its own pace, a point in history
the slate wiped clean then the rain falls, hard
attacking the quite carriages intrusive taps crack the glass
as the train runs faster and faster
a myriad of new galaxies is born
here I am, torn away
far below, the loud thoughts of earth cannot be heard above the life pulsating silence of space
armies of big bangs zutt and slide
in an orgy of electricity
even more beyond the glass
past this incomprehensible cosmos
stretching to the horizon
two lovers reunited kiss where sky meets sea
an infinite different worlds inside your skin, your eyes, a tear drop!
i laugh at the phantasmagorical
if butterfly’s flapping wings cause the earth to quake
what happens when such tears fall into the sea?
would the cosmos be forever changed?
what if I were to name out loud just two of the drops
streaking patterns across the windows
would it still remain?

Sinking to the bottom of the dress your wearing

Scars of purple paint in gardens
about a circle
we all fall in
sleeping beds alive
lift us
out the glass
where do they take you?
through the window
we all fall in
forget about the sound of breathing
bodies on sheets
dead your moving
whats the deal with the funny fingers?
a rat on pills got no need for stealing
rich scabs keep on picking
rich scabs keep on picking

To the diet of the sun
i got put away

you took a pull
drowned a pill

tooth ache
i fought the silence in white china
falling out the glass

Air.
Air
Tap into the bowl
lets the water sink
boxes of string
seeing eggs on the ceiling
peeling again, peeling again
run and find a buyer
run and find a buyer
havent got the bottle
havent got the glass
sticking back the pieces
all about a broken jar
throwing out the tables
cracks are heavy
on the tongue
heavy on the tongue
this is getting lazy
twist of silver foil
boomy from my darling
speaking on the floor

The Rude Shipyard.
The Rude Shipyard
Christ alive this place is rude
when im in the shipyard of dreams
the walls make me turn
peeling my skin into a cat like banana
ripe outside colour of cheetah
yellow tan with lots of black spots
the ghosts of the sea inside
watch, until i slip over
furry stripy
miaow
now im the right size
i can curl up on the cosy sofa
under the stars
beside the desk with the magic drawer
and sleep.
Walking steps on colourful stairs
shoes get covered in invisible paint
blue green orange marine
cherry sage yellow purple blossom
and leave footprints everywhere
barefoot
its like being a child again
stepping onto a tray of thick syrupy block poster paint
one day ill say goodbye
to the peaceful road outside the window
follow them all the way to the woods.
Im woken up running around the night garden on the sofa
by two men i cant see
past the crows nest of gloves
you ahoy!
chatting about mushrooms and drugs
"ive done a few things and its all been brilliant"
pyramid of the moon and sun
i can smell milk on the table
jade eyes open
i can see a boy surrounded by books
writing stories.
Drawer in a desk
A tiny silver cup hit with a pen rings true
what is it for?
a jar of artwork spills
milk on the table
where the bush fires burn
one white eyed triangle pupil
dilates slowly
a smile from a beautiful creature
contracts blinking day into night
from the tea, on a spoon
the spicy smelling bag wraps up
in the tiny silver cup
hit with a pen rings true
pearls pearls pearls
the mice climb out the drawer.

Electric Chair.
Electric Chair
Its hard to see its hard to speak
unless you have the words
the answer that you seek
can be near or far
dont matter what star
you turn left at
if you havent got a map
then you havent got a map
mouth drops open as a mouse gets
cracked
shaking in a hand
minds gone blank
beautifull creatures
keep coming through the glass
come in through the glass
on the grass
off the grass
love the taxi
on the grass
off the grass
cant sleep
cant eat
dont know
what to say
every choice made
sunlight or rain
whats worse
knowing it didnt use to be
this way
no morals
no questions
no stage
just act
you cant see
my eyes smile
as i draw in pen
on your back
a new tatoo
heaven is bare skin
we the glass
break through
diving of
water falls
on empty chairs
opposite feet
it would be easy
to fall back
slip into the carpet
swallowed by the soft lake
of the floor
to swim fish swim
or begin to sink
i see your colours
bright like a night
full of lights and stars
shining all over as you waltz through the ocean
i drift further into my own skin
dropping beneath the floorboards
of the chair im sitting in
water stones
floating down with a feather and a hammer
till im standing underground
surrounded by the cat whisker people
who live in mock tudor houses
below our feet
somewhere ive never been before
these sleek haired red cloaked creatures
in the nose more rats than cats
walk in shabby circles
they dance without moving
i have to ask
have you always been here?
is it alright that im here?
if they could they would reply
open their arms out wide
instead they keep them hidden with their voices
robed inside
i dont know why
i look up
id rather stay here with the cat whisker people
then go back to sitting in the chair
sitting in the chair
i can see the patterns of the ocean carpet
everythings wet
psy trance rave
electric fish
ghost past a sinking feather
scales shimmer beautiful
hammer floating on top of the sea
not even damp
the lady standing opposite me gives up on the broken mouse
sulks off
there are people sitting on shelfs like books with broken spines
dont know where they're swimming too next
they havent got a map
havent got a map
i havent got a map
havent got a map
Its hard to see its hard to speak
