songs in clay, by a quiet hand
have no voice, need no ears
to fill love when times stand

pebbles cast no dreams
in pain they glow
under belligerant streams
pebbles cast no dreams
a new heart cast off the seams

where do I hang my thoughts?
when love has lost its home
tables now jaded, speak no more
where do I hang my thoughts?
<!–more–>
windows now strangers
no candles to warm the time
where do I hang my thoughts?
when love has lost its home

truth on their feet
a bed of chirps to dream
home where legs be, legs where heart sings

Doldrums, dilemmas
Incongruous, inimical
Clasp catechisms, confusion
Turns thesaurus till tables turn

Marmalades, mellow
Etched eager endeavors
Love laced lazy lakes
Odes, oranges, olives
Dustless doughnuts
Yesterdays young

Soak scars, silken strength
Old omens, opals ornate
Used urns, unused ukelele
Lights low, life lusted
Fòggy fires, fine ferns
Unanswered, unknown
Lush lines, linger long

Hold horses

flavours, fades
fame, fear, footprints
fosters, finishes, satiates
slow, subtle, seraphic
