2024.5

Bob in the water
A gentle tug on the line
She's taken the bait
But this pond is forbidden
Today, we're fishers of men

2024.4

Warm sand 'tween my toes
A naked sun to gaze at
My little island
There is peace in the breeze here
Better alone than lonely

Many years later
The salty air on my tongue
Brings back memories
The waves and the setting sun
Your lips and their melody

The water was still
And the skies were clear and blue
When it went over
A bruised heart over the rails
Lost to the Siren's soft song

The Siren sings here
A sweet and lively number
That excites the crowd
But there's ice under the waves
She sings not for you or me

I'm broken again
The mechanics aren't upset
Just disappointed

Smiling for the sky
Sunkissed and nature embraced
Eyes closed to the world

Rustle of bedsheets
The soft, wet warmth of breathing
Summer together

Transform for yourself
Or stay exactly the same
But make it a choice

She seems polite or
Wanting something from inside
Yet he doesn't see
