A miss in time

She sang a song
And missed a man
Stared up a thought
And blinked a tear
He just toiled on
A clone of the day
Lost to the pangs
Of a reeling heart
She catches a solemn ride
And wades into an 'ask'
'Just missed him is all'
She tells on her plight
He trudges a wary retreat
To follow the dusk's tail
Comes upon the story
Her day had to tell
Holds her up close
And whispers a why
It was just a song
'Bout a man called Dad

Aloof

Hey there aloof
Sitting by a moon decked pool
Marinating in the chrome
Of your conjuring 
You will find a nook
To rest your case 
Until then it's a wait
Till your time's wound right 
Does it bleach you 
All the ceaseless taint 
Do you wilt 
Or even give a damn 
Does the thought occur
As your mangled forms
Quiver up to you 
Will you reach out 
Float a reason's length 
To dwindle and drown
Then rise on heads
Mounted on hoofs
Pretence to end 
Then when it's all done
There's a lonely wake
Could you contain
There again aloof

'Ale'gory

Rollin' on all froth and trough
Headlong 'n tossed
Can barely wait to crash the week
I'm a salivating saint

Two day curb be damned
Bottled up and canned
Throw me away on garage sales
I just want my fuckin' ale
I just want my fuckin' ale
Just my fuckin' ale

The wife's got a doomsday clause
Bonafide 'n signed
Mamma's got an axe to grind
I'm a marinating beast

Napalm on well laid plans
Coiled up and spasms
Cast me away to bloody hell
I just want my fuckin' ale
I just want my fuckin' ale
I just want my fuckin' ale
Just my fuckin' ale
Just my fuckin' ale

Fuckin' ale!!!!

Shadow dancing

Insurances and assurances
I'm just fading
One cell at a time
Too caught up in this decline

Were you not sent here
To put me beyond
But if I exist for you
How can I ever be gone

And so it stays
Me pulling you down
You would never know
Disappear along with me

In the end there's the light
From the darkness that was me
Then there would be just you
And I would still linger on
Swaying by your feet
