Stella

I need another home, somewhere else to stay, now that you’re gone, what I need to do, is ship out the waste, forget about that Dude, in troubled zones, find solace every day, try not to feel alone, the sea is lemon blue, cafe's swell with rain, I’m feeling nothing new, here in my bones, but know there’s a way, to take control, something in my mood, that doesn’t laugh and say, sunshine kills the Blues, brilliant pheromones, whisper your name, my waters hold firm, I'm dancing today.

if you knew how to give, we wouldn't need, these places to live, this is no child’s game, bound by greed, fear dimming your days, what about the kids, with all their surly needs, would you cast them adrift, dreams can’t negate, lies you told to me, would you send them away, with all your little fibs, think it's a wheeze, another one of your tricks, you're a fool to celebrate, each day without gifts. instead you pontificate, living life by drips, a permanent Halloween, where loving light trips, like a lemon squeezed?

it just goes to show, you don't need ease, on some lonely pillow, to witness your rights, care less about the deeds, than your own weary lies, when you talk of loans, the energy to release, all that you’ve lost, instead of forced jibes, what do you need, behind all of this trying, is it all you know, how to strip out equity, keeping up a cheerful tone, don't try to be wise, it's nothing to me, you've marked many a night, bitter with the blow, in this lost cafĂ©’ , if heaven’s in your soul, look to the sea.

You who own the night, the wind hushed fog dunes, do you wonder why, I keep a cheerful home, beat away the blues, always on the go, forget the bitter times, all the cool untruths, bars, rain, thoughts of homicide, dreams of flying solo, always glad to see you, since last time you phoned, the air plashes by, the evening's getting cool, some wait all their lives, others touch the stones, let them set the spume, what they had before, men whistle passing by, you laugh and hum a tune, say it's stupid to lie, my gun goes Boom!!!

The love you blow, never goes to waste, a fool in every stone, you have no need, to circle every day, or save enough to flee, in garments sewn, by a drunken oblate, this is all you know, seeds, flowers, pieces, to keep you engaged, don’t need to be free, you’ve already flown, away from the shame, makes you sing as you go, a house by the sea, tides and winter and flame, make you happy, brilliant bones, whisper your name, you are the full show, stars mark your passage.

He dances in the tide, his fame is just beginning, nails me with that smile, my mother asks what's new, she is not forgiving, love's not running smooth, tobacco blonde full of lies, fresh alive and swimming, many a famous night, it brings me back to you, god does the bidding, have to break this news, who knows what's right, when he can demand anything, sunlight, water, sky, walks on golden avenues, lilac heads are dripping, he melts me lemon blue, his lips twist like knives, our trips to secret venues, my eyes are river wide, what else can I do?

You never mind, their curses and blasts, always try to be kind, face set like a stone, when you feel trapped, it's best you go alone, won't get frightened, with men who are strapped, say you're divine, surround you like ghosts, first to collapse, knowing life’s not their own, your head won’t chime, with scarves worn for Mass, that's another time, woe, woe, woe, like shoes on a last, all they do is moan, they beg for more wine, slurp it aghast, you tell them it’s fine, you cook with gas.
