My eyes fix a place, where we just carry on, no one seeks the shade, or cares about our ways, a river rises then is gone, beyond any time frame, then you stroke my face, the running lines of alcohol, a delta of red veins, soon we’ll be safe, wolf howls at the moon, the joy of coming home, maybe we'll take a train, search for a winter stove, somewhere across the Bay, we’ll raise our game, a trap of broken runs, love hums better on skates, it beats disgrace, like some walking tomb, can anyone really say, we are best alone?

During these long nights, side by side for harmony, don't ask me why, when there's no strain, a blessed destiny, shows us the way, cool as we fly, why bother to find honesty, sail with blue airlines, inquire about gain, a long, silent history, we won't do that again, bags heavy with sighs, no fun going to seed, the useless fights, a morning’s cold rain, horizons once fizzingly, splinters sun unnamed, you say it's my right you want to be free, you sing from on high, below us the sea.

Denny Two

She breaks the pass, a silken form, hair in a golden clasp, struggling to think, struck like a Grecian urn, I look at the bar, her walk is a dance, wild without thorns, a modern-day iconoclast, shuddering to blink, at what's the score, she asks for a drink, what I say overlaps, churns, my laugh’s a black cat, gliding at the ice rink, her eyes flare, I wait for the clink, at the next chance, a café’ sojourn, it’s love at last, here comes the sun.

Denny

Your life's been fair, many a seed is blown, then again what’s shared, you bring the sea, to faces bright and known, what it is to be, red lipstick loving care, you laugh it down, what you need is more, are you for real, ever born, to feel each loving need, when they make a dare, do you moan, dance unsteadily on chairs, throw away your keys, mask with scorn, any wanton creed, give us our daily prayer, make us warm as toast, not be scared, coming home.

What it means to try, outside the pale, no use trying to lie, in your bones, who needs a trial, to find yourself alone, you look at the time, other measured trails, it seems a while, you think you can atone, when love fails, and someone asks you home, flip a coin see the sky, talk of finding sail, it sometimes ends this way, drink wine out of cones, must be some good mail, throw stones at ghosts, no worse than jail, forsake the stars at night, hit the shining rails, praise bright smiles.

Robert Two

Tell me, tell me why, they treat you like a seer, my lips dance in delight, you command a beautiful air, bells ring out the night, candle scent and myrrh, who says we all die, no call for siren's tears, demands we have to try, life contains its flair, a proud engineer, our praise held in tight, I walk like a man gone by, through the city's fear, so hot it seems to fry, will they find our lair, songs for all their ears, do we have a care, this ship is full of iron, they love orators here, in darkness a green lullaby, a soul comes to share.

Robert

A worn-out empty feeling, all you wish to hide, the pain of someone leaving, she brings you the news, doesn’t try, to disguise what’s true, never mean she lights the sea, an artist bright as sky, and this old has been, looking for something new, a need to find, the story of his youth, who never leaves his street, tho' he walks each night, what do young women need, he’s sunk a few, failing with the light, on St Anthony's pews, sheltered by her being, like a soul on fire, the smile of visions seen, now retired.
