Angel's Wings

A season of greetings and cheer to all...
cold and warm tonight.
Wishes of peace and harmony for all...
she guides you through the night.

Memories of our childhood dreams
and who we may or still don't know.
Look deep into the glass and
see what we ought to hear.

We see ourselves for who we are...
the truth and what we are owing.
Give and give to all... near and far!
For only love can keep us going.

A joyous time to renew for a few.
On swift she comes... Angel's Wings.
Bring so many of the happy things
to mine beloved and to all of you!

A season of greetings and cheer to all...
cold and warm tonight.
She lays down her sword...
offers the Star, with the gift of Light.

È la mia vita

My gift of love
to so many...
spread so thin.

Who's first in line?
Who claims me mine?
Every time I choose
I always lose.

My gift of love, I spread it too thin.
No one is happy, cause they never win.
In the end, I'm by myself... once again.
Almost out of time... no where to begin.

Ode to Divorce

It's not even about luck and who gives a fuck.
It's not about dukes or when it's time to duck.
When it's not about love when it comes to marriage.
It's who wins the rights to the horse and carriage.

This Way Out

We need to cry...
when we have to say, good bye.
All we may and without a doubt...
it's the only way... to let it out.

The Face in the Mirror by Robert Graves

Grey haunted eyes, absent-mindedly glaring
From wide, uneven orbits; one brow drooping
Somewhat over the eye
Because of a missile fragment still inhering,
Skin-deep, as a foolish record of old-world fighting.

Crookedly broken nose — low tackling caused it;
Cheeks, furrowed; coarse grey hair, flying frenetic;
Forehead, wrinkled and high;
Jowls, prominent; ears, large; jaw, pugilistic;
Teeth, few; lips, full and ruddy; mouth, ascetic.

I pause with razor poised, scowling derision
At the mirrored man whose beard needs my attention,
And once more ask him why
He still stands ready, with a boy’s presumption,
To court the queen in her high silk pavilion.

Talk To My Head

If you ever loved me or if you even had a clue...
I wouldn't have to be here still paying our dues.
I never asked you for a whole hell of a lot,
except reminding you of what you forgot.

Always up to me to make it right.
I never wanted to get into a fight.
I may have been born at night...
But I sure wasn't born last night!

When it came time for you to step up to the plate,
and tell you what was on time and what was late...
It didn't matter if it was rainy or sunny.
It was just about me and my need for money.

The day came when I said, "I've had enough."
Face to face like a fool I had to be tough.
If I was doing it alone...
I was doing it all alone.

I said everything that had to be said.
I stood there like I had three heads.
I may have been born at night...
But I sure wasn't born last night!

It was about love not money.
An "I love you, Honey" on the first of the month
done and said.
Life's short, you made your bed, take your pick...
talk to my head.

Over You and Out

You can call me a loser but,
I'm over you.
And I'm never losing sleep
over you again.

It was always over my head
lost more than love but,
I'm never losing sleep
ever again... over you.

I have nothing to lose
and there's no excuse.
You were my wife and
I let you run my life.
That's all in the past...
first drop to the last.

I'm not a loser
Losers are weepers.
Cheaper to keep her?
I'd rather lose her,
not to confuse her and
be able to sleep again.

Your friends know I'm done,
and how I'm over you.
And I'm never losing sleep
over you... ever again.

No matter how you twist it
how you want the world to see it.
The truth that everyone knows...
my love was merely a visit.

From then until now,
from now until then.
Over night! Over you!
I'm never losing sleep
It's over... so over.
never losing sleep
over that girl, again.

Always over my head...
that's what you said.
I'm going to bed.
I'm here without you
with someone else instead.

Good night! Sleep tight!
I'll never let them bite...
because of you, just you!
I'll still lose plenty of sleep.
Now I'm with her and so over you!
