Moonlight (lyrics)
Find it hard to be understated
When there’s four million people in this town
Though the world still turns

Awkward, the shifts of amourous time - uneasy in it’s day clothes, irritating the debauched, tongue-tied enticing night. out of sight- veins throb with dormant lust, placing a misguided trust in the coyly apologetic caverns of the self. climb to the back of the shelf - hide behind ego, feign to make that last impish deal with the id love life hid. get rid - banish those awful thoughts -...

Bearded Jane
Did you hear the story of Bearded Jane?
Got dropped by a juggler and grew insane.
Fell in love with a lion who shared her pain.
Not of being caged, but of being tamed.
