Memories

Memories

I'm making you up as I go along
You are sure of yourself and operate autonomously
In a world of complications
We are often in disagreement
Our conflict is necessary
As definition becomes more refined
Our feelings are always mixed
In a blend of efforts
The score undermines
What is nixed
Between us
I made you up in numbers
Just as opposites attract we repel and like each other
I prop you up in lines
Not to possess
But to make you mine
In a shaft of events
God gives in for a bit
Letting me shine
Looking good
In front of you
Forever

If you remember doomsday
Then I am in it
Although not always
At my best
So you do your worst
Without even trying
And you sell your soul
But the Devil's not buying
Which is why I last saw you
In a house of ghosts

The long and short
Quickly gone
Our brief history
Went for a song
Over and out
While tuning in
Our shrouds adjusted
A life of sin
Without even knowing
Where to begin

Out of the Wild

Out of the Wild Life is a wild ride Nobody can hide from Those starving to death Those taking their first breath Scaling ups and downs On syndromes of expectation Spit out individuality Facing nations On planet Earth Rolling coasts Which still birth Peace In the midst of such Belief We all count for something Else

Greatness

Greatness To be sure My language art Replicates itself Just as Picasso Duplicates himself Without remorse Carting off the horse In a Lamborghini Filmed for the unsuspecting By Fellini Composed by classics Like Rossini In a world of comparisons I am dreamy But not without steamy thoughts Which always get me into trouble As the bubble bursts It's a fine start The illusion reveals A delusion Delivered with a mild fart As such, I must keep it to myself My greatness, it seems, must stay on the shelf Where it remains as a shining example To those who wish for a stardom burst Stand with those merely ample
