I haven't
slept, baby
The softness
Takes my cares
Abbrevi-
ate mornings
In tones I
Choose to wear
I sit here
In silence
My thoughts
are carousels
all music
all laughter
Such stories I could tell....
my heart beats, all so passion’d
my words fall off the tongue
This sky, so simply magic
This day fits like a glove
all reason
cares nothing
when rhyme so
patiently
awaits a painter's fashion
in purest fantasies
I've seldom
been to this place
as I have seldom seen
Such meticulous whims
of sensuality
Yes I remember your face
I've glimpsed beyond a dream
and I could carve out a name
upon the changing sea
I haven't
Slept, darlin
I just can't put it down
This solid in-
fant morning
In such vivacious sound
My thoughts be-
come outlets
My thoughts are hardly there
The cadence falls so easy
I wear the rhythm, bare
Beyond the sapphire queen
Further than Alice falls
I will await you, my dear
Upon your beck and call
I will await you beyond
Should you so choose to be
For I could carve out a name
Upon the changing sea….
But if I may step away from the spinning
separation of it's fall, I'd tell you that
I think it's oh so beautiful how you seem
to get closer, and neverever move at all.
Sometimes I could reach right out and touch you
Push beyond sight, beyond star's listless pall
Touch you, and touch nothing at all....
I haven't slept,
baby
The softness takes my cares
