Lynne

It's quiet here now, fifty years of need, smooth as her stone, can still see the grave, where praise be, i hope i'll be saved, Ohio under snow, i'm back in Tennessee, the year of the blow, give me the State, you can love for free, except for holidays, geese with barren tones, set my hair to freeze, white on my shoulder, they honk on their way, late for the season, I'm just the same, in the blue dawn, stripped like the trees, between here and home, the old amber need.

Loretta

I still hear me Da, laughing like a juggler, happy/sad he's not barred, my ma stamps the tar, she crumbles, when he buys the car, won't let him cross the arc, bewildered, right from the off, she's a great heart, my son says 'i wonder', if that's the start, he's not gone far, lipstick, a shirt he fumbles, a trip to the park, under oranges in a barn, love never hungers, says he's with his tart, smokes a Lucky Star, chases numbers, love falling apart, eyes like thunder. not pine needles and hay you keep trouble at bay, do what life requires, a sail on blue waves, among candlelit signs, this is what you crave,

Larney

You keep trouble at bay, this life requires, any problems look away, they pester you for loans, your eyes seek the tide, you know you're not alone, stumble in the roaring Hades, dampen any desire, it's never easy or brave, scared to your bones, they note you're a crier, will you take a gun, an offering to be saved, like a cold fish knife, walks a lonely train, a sail on blue waves, among candlelit signs, this is what you crave, a love of the rain, on a burning pyre, not pine needles and hay, but a soul on fire.

Lana

Gnaw at some cause betrayed, conceal the bitter holy things, take them to your grave, maybe you afford the Blues, everyone's your cling, notes come just on cue, what a song they make, a curdled love they bring, everyone loves your face, you are a child brand new, laughter is a wedding ring, love is someone true, smoke cigarettes in the rain, when called upon to sing, this life is such a game, watching ships in the bay, you really love this thing, salt and heartache far away, but gamble it all and say, life to me is nothing, you won't kid the calendars page, or winter's iron thawing.

Krista

They'll let you know, what people up here feel, almost in their bones, that jilted smile's a strain, hurting in the trees, they see it anyway, take your time right now, those night's without a key, the river always flows, why seek the rain, peer in mountain streams, don't have to catch a train, nothing to bestow, with other crazy schemes, life's no picture show, been a long time away, to live within a team, now face each coming day, you don't have to borrow we see how you've been, stay to warm your toes, there is another dream,

Kate

Forget all these clowns, that come to woo her, many without elan, as loud as her woes, ships blow their hooters, every song sings of home, not just from France, but around the corner, who can fault her tan, she glides without throne, the bars are full of bums, she'd rather be alone, nothing hits by chance, her certain eyes are ruined, everything comes to pass, barefoot she raises a laugh, what they do to her, their hard countenance, strange that more than a ham, should be a schmoozer, no sound of a removal van, they meet in the boozer.

Kathy

I will break your curfew, i have always been poor, it happens on cue, no loss to your groans, i stand in infirmary's queue, not blessed with strong bones, are you my glue, whispering at some lonely door, my tongue doth speak true, not defined by these tones, I sit in this gloom, listen to your moans, you've always been blue, never dance to the moon, like we used to do, now hack out your chores, life's a thread for you, a lender of furious pause, you'll face a heavy score, my song is good Ju Ju, it maybe flawed, but i know the tune.

Kay

You'll pay a heavy score, my face is savage blue, love is raw, no sense of ease, always back of your Queue, you never did say please, i am not divined by whores, sitting here in this gloom, or a fool for your cause, there's bad on this street, feel back for good news, a wheeze or a scream, hacking out your chores, turns my life askew, i sweat in furious pause, why say stuff like that for, spinning out your ruin, only fools need more and more, why can't you be true, dance again to the moon, like you used to do, why my lover roars, you never were my glue, praying at some lonely door, your head full of tunes, i just bust your curfew, you've never been poor, i came on cue.

Jinny

Is water in your blood, in this house of whispers, Ma says it does no good, places you want to claim, don't need a chorus, little hearts beside the freeway, smothered by time go bust, leave someone behind who's nuts, be prepared for this, she'll find another Cain, simply do what she insists, knowledge is always lazy, maybe you need a tug, sail away without a ship, the rain feels like dust, always search for good, walk the middle distance, an Ocean door never floods, why make a fuss, she carries yellow lists, pain enough for one of us, chained before her Blitz.

Jerry

How little we imitate, our inventive best, when we twist and shake, open to every door, who can mend our fences, and not get sore, well fed we begin to take, drink carried like the rest, we cannot hesitate, fools always sing for applause, bring us to the test, say two and two makes four, the night's cool probate, scatters our defences, no matter the toil it takes, forbidden reprobates, ask for our presence, leave us nothing, but search for gain, to the cask they blend, we'll hear the rain, they're our new friends.

Janet

Is this really the place, to ask the reason why, uneven love's ashamed, ways of loss and show, you beat out your time, with nowhere else to go, soaked on an ocean main, desolation in your cry, you always try to calculate, what you need to know, no longer berate the sky, wooden box or one way blow, when you once jumped rail, foundation walls safe to climb, beyond the spikes of jail, your lips can't fake, news to a sweetheart's lie, or see her heart gain, not easy to explain, what hurts you deep inside, seeing Blues in someone's face, your eyes full of rain.

Janey

i inhabit somewhere beat, perhaps with a communion air, it'll rescue everything, if i need love, heaven is a place to share, sometimes with a little shove, when in depths of need, i'll have a go at taking care, it's not easy being free, getting dressed feel the tug, never short of pleasure, when it's from up above, i know how to keep, a wooden place that's fair, bars are my sole conceit, somewhere i can dream, even terrible faces hard chairs, lit up like kerosene, will anyone see, the gaps between my hair, what about my teeth, each breath is my lair

Jordan

Don't give me another trip, strangers grasp me from below, tell me get a grip, we don't need drugs to pray, sooth our bones, or the need to get away, stowaways have surly lips, manacles of wretched homes, others take a coin and flip, hollow jokes and spirits fray, on sentimental zones, lies in everything they say, they make our spirits dip, will consumptive Europe, take another a nip, care to ask how we sleep, or can we ever atone, when faith take a leap, wonder why we slip, the wind gives a groan, down our coffin ship, dance parishioners go. dead ruin across your face, more jelly for my blues, it doesn't bring relief, but a new gnawing pain, of wasted opportunity, who bears the issue, to the hospital gates, you couldn't face the truth, a swollen handkerchief, a still born fate, a star across the sea, you wouldn't believe, i tried to be gay, , listening to the rain, for the cache of blues, you are strong, the moon fills your dome, you'd never scorn, when donkeys start to bray, you dance and play a surfeit of energy, vodka tonics citrus cool who needs reason, that never fades take a train, you've sat and tread, a path alone, not having a sou to spend, or like Zeus in his head, listening to stones, i only read in bed, send me ahead. who needs reason, bags weigh heavy at night, it's fun being away, won't ever think concretely, worry about pain, a long silent right, December in warm climes, find an Ocean to lie in, if they think that crass, consider them gone, you're not perturbed, dancing on brown chairs, when you tell lover's lies, on the lilac, whoever make me plead, wave goodbye to dreams, she has me all alone, my turn now to bleed, always opens the gate they ask, the ghosts, sat on bar stools bereft, you never throw stones What you created, with me as your creed, leaves me prostrate, a tune with broken tones, in that sixties scene, when you left home, you didn't hesitate, to polish the chrome, the moon hesitates, it knows where she's been, the wind going boom hold the clock chimes, run outside the room, live generous lives, like you never rue, brave enough it rests nearby, what settles on the breeze to rescue God or try, brush away disease, laugh at why you're cold, what has come to be, dance on love you sigh, sing that song you sold, growl it like a lullaby, before you die you're no salamander. .panic shall not reign who holds their reins? best not to moan, keep hold of your creed, by Calendar or the sea, throw calcium to bird who have flown, it was only fame, singing as they go, drunk as a fiery contralto, dance amongst flames, problems the wind blows, the love that was shown, dissolves gives way, all that you owned, keeps you engaged. cafe's swell with rain, best not to moan, keep hold of your creed, don't let panic reign, like a hurricane zone, try to circle the domes, not knowing where to go, you have got my tone knowing not enough to see, would you let me tumble, tired of this campaign, across this shining bite, that gives no trouble, against the water's might, the Americas of circue. by mountains and ruins, lovers only hesitate she never left a family’s gate, but came here to sing, a woman who knows she's great, that beckons any time, next to me like a bride, around a constant why, the land within our sight, an old man and his wife, a voyage for the rate, set your almond eyes birds sing out of tune drain summer into June sweep up with the moon not present castigate, hope on a midnight wire, we are not alone in this lasting light, home provides no clue, God knows of our plight, don't try to collude, say your cards are marked, you're never that far, to stay where you are, in a warm hazy fog, and a veil across your face don't send me to Mars, from where you perorate.

Judith

Your moans leave me, shivering by the train, bones of a teasing homily, your wailed news, dead ruin across your face, more jelly for my blues, it doesn't bring relief, but a new gnawing pain, of wasted opportunity, who bears the issue, to the hospital gates, you couldn't face the truth, a swollen handkerchief, a still born fate, a star across the sea, you wouldn't believe, i tried to be gay, before sunrise bleeds, now your tears can't reach, me on my way, don't spoil my dreams, keep your praise. wondering if these waves, will make her atone, straggling to escape, this November grey l

Johnny

Take the love you show, drown it on the tide, live with what you know, drained by winter's news, before she sails on by, smile the smile of cuckold, caught up in a cyclone, going to be a bride, say please don't go, what makes it true, a heart made of stone, she sings the Delta blues, breaking on my bones, who will bring more wine, nothing can atone, what we have we lose, that fellow by her side, is now part of you, she never did do slow, to catch another's smile, why she's never home, waiting for the ride.

James

You like strong tea, tears are lachrymose, jokes your repartee, might have once been so, you are strong, never one to atone, wind starts to ease, you take the stones, replace them with certainty, the moon fills your dome, you'd never scorn, but why have they gone, where is the sea, never one to roam, when you need to believe, when they all leave, do you raise your brow, walk to the lavatory, your sons have left home, their mother's fine, you fix a drink alone, stronger than wine. when donkeys start to bray, ou dance and fade never mind the time, we sit by a fire,. stand before the enemy, a terrible supplies of energy, vodka tonics citrus cool who needs reason, bags weigh heavy at night, it's fun being away, we won't ever concretely, inquire about pain, a long silent right, take a train, you who'd sat and tread, a lonely path alone, not having a sou to spend, ost like Zeus in his head, listening to stones, i only read in bed, send me ahead. , this horizon so bright, or a sail on the lee, this way there's no stain, so far we're right, who needs reason, bags weigh heavy at night, it's fun being away, we won't ever concretely, inquire about pain, a long silent right, take a train, you who'd sat and tread, not having a sou to spend, ost like Zeus in his head, i only read in bed, send me ahead. , December in warm climes, find an Ocean to lie in, if they think that crass, consider them gone, you're not perturbed, dancing on brown chairs, when you tell lover's lies, s on the lilac, whoever make me plead, wave goodbye to dreams, she has me all alone, my turn now to bleed, always opens the gate they ask, the ghosts, sat on bar stools bereft, you never throw stones What you created, with me as your creed, leaves me prostrate, a tune with broken tones, in that sixties scene, when you left home, you didn't hesitate, to polish the chrome, the moon hesitates, it knows where she's been, the wind going boom hold the clock chimes, run outside the room, live generous lives, like you never rue, brave enough it rests nearby, what settles on the breeze to rescue God or try, brush away disease, laugh at why you're cold, what has come to be, dance on love you sigh, sing that song you sold, growl it like a lullaby, before you die you're no salamander. .panic shall not reign who holds their reins? best not to moan, keep hold of your creed, by Calendar or the sea, take Cium the bird who has flown, it was only fame, singing as she goes, drunk as a fiery contralto, dance amongst flames, problems the wind blows, the love that was shown, dissolves gives way, all that you owned, keeps you engaged. cafe's swell with rain, best not to moan, keep hold of your creed, don't let panic reign, like a hurricane zone, try to circle the domes, we are leaving Salerno, you have got my tone knowing not enough to see, would you let her tumble, tired of this campaign, across this shining bite, that gives no easy news, against the water's might, the Americas of circue. by mountains and ruins, lovers only hesitate she never left a family’s gate, but came here to sing, a woman who knows she's great, that beckons any time, next to me like a bride, around a constant why, the land within our sight, an old man and his wife, a voyage for the rate, set your almond eyes birds sing out of tune drain summer into June sweep up with the moon not present castigate, hope on a midnight wire, we are not alone in this lasting light, home provides no clue, God knows of your plight, don't try to collude, say your cards are marked, you're never that far, to stay where you are, in a warm hazy fog, and a veil across your face don't send me to Mars, from where you perorate. when you geniflect ,

Janine

It's been a while, so there you go, you're not a child, when donkeys start to bray, or when the cock crows, you'll have your say, no need to find, what you rarely own, then walked the miles, a star showing the way, frozen in your bones, there are no trains, kid you don't mind, if there's another show, never mind the time, stay here a while, wrapped up with the snow, you have such style, we sit by a fire, awaiting the tow, you try to look kind, a smile in your soul.

Jinny

Diagnosis that's half true, she smells the Limes, on a tree lined avenue, acts like she knows, the ties that bind, blows hard on her bones, hope holds you aloof, she knows that is right, except there's no clue, she won't be alone, in this cosy light, to break out the stones, but has to keep going through cold evening night, when the kids phone in, she sits near the flue, it's not like a crime, for a fire to warm you, thinks she'll be fine, drink leads to ruin, it's just a strange time, to know if you're through? the relatives will arrive, like a roll of the dice the mother mewling, nephew's face tight, they like a brew, whisky beer a little wine, even some moonshine, a place beyond the knife , no need for your fluting, i'll be back to stay, change to a different hue, dream of a life outside, moments to pray, there'll be no rice, i can't explain, when i'm close by you, yon't need me to hide, my thoughts in the ice a wolf howl at the moon, not like coming home, who knows where's the flame, a trapeze of broken runs, does our soul work this way, how can i fasten fame, acting like some walking tomb, can we ever really say, what makes a country tune

Jan

Time breeds necessity, the shouting and fighting, feeds this unease, doesn't need the news, to tell what is right, has enough to do, winter's like the heating, lilac as the night, who needs to heed it, find another avenue, her face is bright, who needs this curfew, the walls are like treacle, what's down the line, before he sees her, worrying about freedom, her eyes near the fire, cold in the season, good reasons to leave, wonders if she's right, to head for the sea, thinking she'll be happy.

Julia

Will you arrive the same, beneath the trees, each time we separate, remember the times, bars stacked like wheat, we sat drinking wine, now a morning shame, it's not just my feet, in this tired game, now i'm fine, i dream of the sea, sail away on the line, what does it take, with my dawn novena, to have you back again, a smile like a hurricane, your body a treat, see you hesitate, why can’t you remain, the sun rises uneven, cars fill up their lanes, won't wait for evening.

Jenny

You say time to leave, don't really want to know, not part of your creed, you just want away, to live or die alone, dig your own grave, you make our love bittersweet, no human need for home, children, big dreams, shifting sounds of the sea, you dance on moonlit bones, i want to stay pretty, sing along and pray, the only song i own, i am right to state, can you hear me keening, locked to an iron stove, like the rock of Euripides, please don't push me, I'm only skin and bone, who are you to believe, you arbitrate my soul.

Ifor

Fear is dark around my sight, makes me hollow ancient flame, wait for lamps to shine, when i'm near to true, i'll be back to stay, change to a different hue, dream of a life outside, moments to pray, drink a little sweet wine, there'll be no avenues, i can't explain, when i'm close by you, laughing in a better clime, no one's to blame, for part of me dying, don't need fire to hide, my thoughts in train, will return on the tide, beyond the knife is right, need you to say, don't turn away in silence, we'll go home again.

Iona

Don't let the doom crew, turn out make it seem, you'll always sing the Blues, cold weather flowers live alone, don't know dis ease, they always find a home, even if the wind rocks cruel, it won't stop your dreams, you'll always lose a few, come here and bellow, scream astride the moonlit sea, nothing bites a loving tone, our dark days feud, is now just history, you always bring good news, even after days of feud, stay with me, forget the curfew, you laugh the way you do, it’s not from the heat, no desert frightens you, it's what you believe. an escape from a disease something you can clean say it's not just you, famed, broken, ill at ease, you ignore all the signs, believe what you believe, to wrap around your misery, those whispered prayers at night, thrown across the lee, the terms you foresee, becomes heaven's insight, lawyers act with speed, what gave you the right ? does what she can alone. a river rises all alone, beyond any time zone, the running line of alcohol, a time to stay alone, a wolf howl at the moon, not like coming home, who knows where's the flame, a trapeze of broken runs, does our soul work this way, how can i fasten fame, acting like some walking tomb, can we ever really say, what makes a country tune ? you dance and fade stand before the enemy, a terrible supplies of energy, vodka tonics citrus cool who needs reason, bags weigh heavy at night, it's fun being away, we won't ever concretely, inquire about pain, a long silent right, take a train, you who'd sat and tread, a lonely path alone, not having a sou to spend, ost like Zeus in his head, listening to stones, i only read in bed, send me ahead. , this horizon so bright, or a sail on the lee, this way there's no stain, so far we're right, who needs reason, bags weigh heavy at night, it's fun being away, we won't ever concretely, inquire about pain, a long silent right, take a train, you who'd sat and tread, a lonely path alone, not having a sou to spend, ost like Zeus in his head, listening to stones, i only read in bed, send me ahead. , December in warm climes, find an Ocean to lie in, if they think that crass, consider them gone, you're not perturbed, dancing on brown chairs, when you tell lover's lies, s on the lilac, whoever make me plead, wave goodbye to dreams, she has me all alone, my turn now to bleed, always opens the gate they ask, the ghosts, sat on bar stools bereft, you never throw stones What you created, with me as your creed, leaves me prostrate, a tune with broken tones, in that sixties scene, when you left home, you didn't hesitate, to polish the chrome, the moon hesitates, it knows where she's been, the wind going boom hold the clock chimes, run outside the room, live generous lives, like you never rue, brave enough it rests nearby, what settles on the breeze to rescue God or try, brush away disease, laugh at why you're cold, what has come to be, dance on love you sigh, sing that song you sold, growl it like a lullaby, before you die you're no salamander. .panic shall not reign who holds their reins? best not to moan, keep hold of your creed, by Calendar or the sea, take Cium the bird who has flown, it was only fame, singing as she goes, drunk as a fiery contralto, dance amongst flames, problems the wind blows, the love that was shown, dissolves gives way, all that you owned, keeps you engaged. cafe's swell with rain, best not to moan, keep hold of your creed, don't let panic reign, like a hurricane zone, try to circle the domes, we are leaving Salerno, you have got my tone knowing not enough to see, would you let her tumble, tired of this campaign, across this shining bite, that gives no easy news, against the water's might, the Americas of circue. by mountains and ruins, lovers only hesitate she never left a family’s gate, but came here to sing, a woman who knows she's great, that beckons any time, next to me like a bride, around a constant why, the land within our sight, an old man and his wife, a voyage for the rate, set your almond eyes birds sing out of tune drain summer into June sweep up with the moon not present castigate, hope on a midnight wire, we are not alone in this lasting light, home provides no clue, God knows of your plight, don't try to collude, say your cards are marked, you're never that far, to stay where you are, in a warm hazy fog, and a veil across your face don't send me to Mars, from where you perorate. when you geniflect

Isobel

A broken tort on my knees, will you take the child, can't you let us be, when you bring this news, fury in your smile, say it's not just you, famed, broken, ill at ease, you ignore all the signs, believe what you believe, even if not true, a power beyond my sight, you always claim the virtue, to wrap around your misery, those whispered prayers at night, thrown across the lee, the terms you foresee, becomes heaven's insight, lawyers act with speed, before you came for me, asked to carry the light, of love across the sea, what gave you the right ? .

Izzy

Love holds the door ajar, your hair falls down the line, you don't get very far. but sit around a Pool trees blend wave in time, who needs their news, or ask about your Da, just another wine, lonely as a shooting star, the money he tooled, in a poor jaded light, sunshine just for fools, home another car, furnished by mother's cries, no room for chairs, swear you're no fool, to forget the hurt inside, or that other part of you, that sits on the bar, and sees the morning rise hit the highway burning tar, do you raise your eyes?

Irish

A winter of religious scenes, she dabs at another frame, stands without belief, regards the bottle, men she's honed, stay away from that game, doubtful if she's ever alone, in yellow nights of dreams, even if she looks the same, it's not what it seems, the canvas lets her be, painting's like a wooden nail, a matchstick in the sea, in many ways she's gone, lost within her name, the work is not her own, the pull of certain Liberty, never really eases the pain, her body ticks with heat, deep burnt eyes this day, her work sets her free, even if she has no energy, she's knows no other way.

Irene

You crossed the street, things are never the same, salt is on the breeze, danger comes towards my eyes, Hollywood's in your gaze, no need to ask why, smell of perfume from the seat, chasing glory these days, the woman you want to be, how you make the line, you won't be tamed, even if i hold a knife, the place to set you free, a jewel for your days, silken on an easy sea, outside fire's odyssey, someone to chant your name, fire without reason, being true is never easy, especially on your campaign, don't gild the lily, celebrity is no child's game.

Hilary

Who can resist, or diminish your flame, sometimes in a wayward kiss, hidden by canyons and scree, a terrible supply of waste, men drool at your feet, beware those who can hit, you turn to me and say, am i being remiss, the hollows tick with heat, sunshine grants them little space, a wind is worth seeing, let them all go hiss, you say again, rage will absolve us, for everything we miss, we'll see off troubles again, they'll fall off the list, uncertain questions, shoved or tossed away, fools seeking justice, we hold the reins.

Harriet

All that is behind you, sits stunned around a Pool, vodka tonics citrus cool, on yellow sand you redeem, all that hides from you, scrubbed by the sea, it's hard to be discreet, what you've been through, so why not laugh easy, what your bones can't undo, or your tongue can't fool, you won't delude, trees of a green beach, who carry the news, sung on a gentle breeze, you stand before the enemy, he tempts you with a brew, his terrible supplies of energy, he won't break your mood, a banshee wail of what to do, what it is to lose, your fire turns blue.
