rewrite- WE LIVE IN TWO DIFFERENT WORLDS (from the album: another place another time)

      i have wandered around lost until i got bit by your dog

it was only skin deep, a shallow bleed, 

you came out the front door to see what was happening in your yard

you saw me on the ground scratching and biting back 

you saw my unnatural need

   (  yeah i guess you can say we live in two different worlds

same planet, same town, still, we live in two different worlds

one stitch, two pearled, knit for knack, gonna attack-tack-tack )

     plastered in your mind never going to unsee what happened

your dog, once so tough, laying gasping on the grass seed

a whine and a final tear the dog twitched, then lay still

you saw me rip your dog apart

you saw my greed

     (  yeah i guess you can say we live in two different worlds

same planet, same town, still, we live in two different worlds

one stitch, two pearled, knit for knack, gonna attack-tack-tack )

     blood running from my mouth down my chin, rivulets in red 

i look you in the eye, you look into my soul, you pull my lead

terror takes a backseat, you invite me in with a smile on your lips

i stare transfixed, walk the miles to your door, cross the threshold

i'm going to make you plead

  (  yeah i guess you can say we live in two different worlds

same planet, same town, still, we live in two different worlds

one stitch, two pearled, knit for knack, gonna attack-tack-tack )

  (  yeah i guess you can say we live in two different worlds

same planet, same town, still, we live in two different worlds

one stitch, two pearled, knit for knack, gonna attack-tack-tack )

     a vampire and a witch, making each other better, wetter, groove is on

i stay awhile soaking you up, glistening as you cast your deed

same planet, same town, we live in two different worlds

 one critch, toes curled, snick for snack, gonna attack-tack -tack

ANOTHER LOAD IN THE DRYER

      WELL DONE, MEDIUM RARE, LOVE IS SIFTING 

MY WANTON'S LIFTING

DARK IN WITH THE LIGHTS , CANDY CLOVES HOOKED IN

THE DAIRY FABRIC. LOOSEN WITH THE CARE

OF THE SMOTTH JAZZ MELON-COLLI  DUST BIN

JUST LIKE THE TUB DRAIN SWIRLS THE LONGEST HAIR.

SMIRK IF YOU MUST, I GOT ANOTHER LOAD IN THE DRYER. 

TIME EBBS FORTH, OR TO AND FRO, HUG TIGHT WOMBAT

 FLESH RIDDLES, BULLETS RIDDLED CAR DOOR, 

NEVER TRULY STAIN FREE, STRAIN LIL BEE, 

MOCHA BROWN HOT RAVIOLI PLAYDOUGH. 

SUCH IS THE LIFE WHEN YOU HAVE ANOTHER LOAD IN THE DRYER

not a novel beginning BOOK IDEA 437.36

 It was a dark and stormy night, like curdled chocolate milk, set out to boil the day away. Overhead, the crows picked their spots in the sky. Running from one shadow to another my target tried to evade the inevitable. Death would take It's soul.

SEE AND SMILE




HAPPY
MOVING THROUGH THE WORLD
LOST IN BOOKS
ENGROSSED IN THOSE AROUND ME
I'M HAPPY

SIMPLE, YES
STILL TRUE

TRAVERSE THE DISTANCE



THROUGH THE BRIGHTLY LIT HALLS 
I TRAVERSE
FEELING AS THOUGH I TOO SHOULD BE SMILING
THE DRAWINGS FROM THE PEOPLE THAT CAME BEFORE ME 
SOME PLACES SCATTERED, SOME IN TIGHT UNIFORMED LINES
TELL STORIES I FEEL I HAVE LIVED

REMORSE, GRATITUDE, EMPTINESS AND JOY
STARING AT EACH PICTURE FOR SOME GLIMPSE INTO MY OWN STORY
CITIES DRAWN, PROUD STANDING, THEN BURNED TO THE GROUND.
AIRCRAFT BLAZING THEIR WAY INTO THE INFINITE, ONLY TO CRASH DUE TO RANDOM MISCALCULATIONS AND GRAVITY

HOW DOES SOMEONE DESCRIBE THEMSELVES TO OTHERS
IT'S SOMETHING I HAVE ALWAYS FALTERED ON.
WATCHING OTHERS I BELIEVE I CAN SEE THEM
DEVOURING THE TIME GIVEN TO THEM WITH RELISH
AND THE OCCASIONAL BUNCH OF FINELY CHOPPED ONIONS

WOULD I BE HAPPIER AMONG THE SHADOWS
I HOPE THE ANSWER IS NO
BUT AT TIMES I WONDER 
AT TIMES I SEEK IT ALL
AT TIMES I TRAVERSE

FFBT



FUTILE FRUGAL BUGLE TUBA
CORNED CANNED BANNED BASS
HITHER HIPPO SKIPBO TONG
WHITHERED WINO DRUM SLUM 


LET'S FACE IT




YOU
ARE LUCKY
SHE HAS A SOFT SPOT , SOME CALL IT A WEAKNESS,
FOR PEOPLE LIKE YOU
CAUSE , LET'S FACE IT
YOU ARE RUNNING TOWARDS A BLEAK PLACE
SOME WOULD SAY SPRINTING

YOU 
SHOULD BE MORE 
ALERT TO THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU
THOSE WHOSE LIVES YOU TOUCH
CAUSE, LET'S FACE IT
YOUR OFTEN LIKE A PLAGUE
KILLING AS YOU GO

YOU
COULD TURN YOURSELF
AROUND AND STOP THE MADNESS YOU CREATE
FOR PEOPLE LIKE HER
WHO YOU ARE TEARING DOWN
CAUSE, LET'S FACE IT
