Your star is coming home,
besides a police cone,
in shelters you lie prone,
why whisper love,
on throwaway 'phones,
ravaged face like a moon,
saints show their bones,
a poem to massage your soul,
it makes you drink alone,
pearl doves arc above,
a lifetime listening to moans,
fly to those who give,
fresh linen and eau de cologne,
leaves you on the ropes,
you wear a green raincoat,
you are not alone,
millions come and go,
trying to find a home,
luminous as a frozen stone,
shining beneath the credit zones,
search a road called hope,
before you take a loan.

I'm not your drip,
nor the big sea,
the yellow light hid,
ask about my lovers,
with all their surly deeds,
they haven't got my number,
what I crave to live,
as if it fits your creed,
is a series of limits,
that edge of wonder,
being witness to believe,
my high heeled mother,
stones flowers pieces of drift,
knowing its enough to see,
what is in my gift,
to enslave or encumber,
a lifetime of greed,
the peace of sweet slumber,
would you leave me in sin,
a lifetime of weeds,
is it all spinning fibs,
that gives me the need?

Face down terrible claims,
no star can refuse,
your outrageous Dames,
you who wonder Why,
the lordly canons of virtue,
feel those cotton stripes,
but this's no game,
TV's blare fake news,
chasing the days,
around your lies,
your trinkets spin the blues,
for all that crass disguise,
hardships on the way,
what is there to rue,
hit them on the make,
only fools rearrange,
with someone like you,
you're tired of catching 'planes,
especially on parade,
better face the Doo Doo,
eyes looking strange,
go easy on what's true.

When bells ring out the night,
will you make your mark,
like a song beseeches why,
the land’s within sight,
a warm embrace by dark,
gives me your sweet sign,
dusk falls in green light,
our lives leap near the Bar,
say you not a Sprite,
when Americans fight,
hold lovers in their arms,
or on mountains bikes,
your Diva's fame declines,
the price near or far,
from many a famous night,
like a sea of pure delight,
your smile cuts through tar,
beams like a searchlight,
you left a family’s side,
but sing like a Lark,
a woman who knows her rights,
and hangs by the stars.

Take life by the horns,
it's not a place of ease,
pray to all you know,
it's not defined by flaws,
or other things diseased,
scream just because,
your love’s on the floor,
stay your almond eyes plead,
bells ring out the score,
make our lives more,
don’t pretend it’s free,
keep within the law,
if you have to go,
it's all right with me,
just quietly close the door,
hoping all we call upon,
is always meant to be,
in this constant roar,
always time to talk more
Blues you can cheat,
but with these hormones,
who needs the sea?

Why pay a heavy score,
almond eyes ruined,
when love gets raw,
if you feel my bones,
drip like a scalded tune,
you know what you've done,
live life all the more,
leave me here to stew,
pray to a broken tort,
why dedicate a home,
only fools pay their dues,
strung like freeway cones,
divide me with perfumed whores,
or other things you do,
don't scream because,
hard acts at this door,
warriors live out of tune,
who else knows their doomed,
break holy orders,
drain winter into June,
all the stuff you swore,
lightning the moon.

The one of you I knew,
when life is short,
would rage against these Blues,
in this consumer light,
you leave without a phone,
it doesn't make you wise,
nothing gives a clue,
no print or written tome,
your trail is not well used,
do they know your plight,
or try to stop you go,
with your cards so slight,
you'll never be a mule,
that works to others' tones,
put a stop to rules,
the one I think I knew,
wouldn't let condone,
all the stuff we do,
so far away from home.
