Sarah Three

You scream the news, in troubled nights, as if you knew, all the different ones, left hanging on the line, I loved now gone, fire burns up the flue, tell me how to cry, when you look so blue, it’s not me you unlocked, swimming on the tide, everything you held and lost, no matter who you use, however you may try, you are not immune, who cares that I’m crocked, something deep inside, shines outside my shock, who will smell my perfume, strange pillows furl the sky, death brings no easy due, even when you die.

Sarah Two

I’m set to freeze, my soul strung out tight, someone get me free, in your eyes amour, do what's right, you know the score, rock me gently, say everything ‘s fine, don't worry baby, the hearts of lost souls, all entwined, roll around my floor, glamorous, perfect, serene, you kiss me quietly, hold what others have dreamed, ever so tight, have I just died, and loll on water, a star across the sea, I swear to the night, I’ll find some ease, I’ll be alright.

Sarah

Don't stay up too late, say that love squarely exists, tell me get my skates, the earth hesitates, like it has a stitch, I’m not afraid, someone says give me change, the pavement is playing this, it'd be a cheek to say, spin your plates, he wants to see my tits, creepy by the door frame, walking by his place, it’s s like a launderette, tumbling out my fate, his little smile migrates, with all the other misfits, who’ve never seen a wage, such times of little grace, when you figure it, it’s me who makes a face, is something missing ?

Asha Three

You keep trouble at bay, that this job requires, any problems look away, they pester you for loans, your eyes seek the tide, you're not alone, we stumble in the haze, fan our desire, no one’s easy or brave, scared to your bones, they don’t call you a liar, but threaten with guns, ride the blue waves, like a cold fish knife, I’m your only gain, why don't you 'phone, I’ve made candlelit signs, It’s not easy on my own, is this what you slake, to dampen each fire, something to trade, until you retire?

Asha Two

It's quiet here now, after fifty years of need, heart smooth as stone, still as the cave, where praise be, I hope to be saved, my body with the snow, back in my country, when it starts to blow, give me this place, I’ll take serenity, especially on feast days, geese with barren tones, hang the air to freeze, above my right shoulder, they see me sway, the light of the season, I'm still on the rails, in the blue dawn, stripped down like a tree, in my hands a rose, the old loving fancy.

Asha

I still hear me Da, laughing like a foghorn, it seems so far, happy he's not scarred, or left forlorn. I start the car, I see him stamp the tar, like a newborn, his ashes fall like stars, I switch off, looking war-torn, right from the start, he’ll never join the ark, not even sure, about his great heart, can’t find that chart, my son knows the score', how it’s gone too far, trips to the funeral park, old shirts he’s worn, why do I tear apart, love has no form

Kamala Three

Bellow at a cause betrayed, conceal the bitter holy things, take them to your grave, don’t afford the Blues, let every bell ring, our day will come on cue, what a song they make, a curdled soup of crying, everyone knows their fate, dab perfume around the room, when called upon to bring, life to such a hula-hoop, watch ships in the bay, you really want to fling, salt on heartache far away, with the kids brand new, laugh at everything, even if it isn't true, don’t gamble all and say, their hate to me is nothing, can’t cheat a turning page, find this time to sing.
