My eyes fix a place, where we just carry on, where no one heeds the flame, or cares about our ways, a tide 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, make wolf howls at the moon, the joy of running away, maybe we'll take a train, search for a winter stove, somewhere safe to lay, we’ll raise our game, make light of broken rooms, love’s better on absent days, always beats the clock’s disgrace, explosive as a bomb, can anyone really say, we’re best alone?

Faith

During these long nights, side by side in memory, don't ask me why, when there's no train, or blessed destiny, to show us the way, we’re cool as we fly , untroubled by honesty, sail with blue airlines, enquire about gain, a long, silent history, that brings us back again, bags heavy with sighs, no fun going to seed, the useless fights, the morning’s cold rain, horizons once so bright, continue unnamed, you say it's my right to want to be free, sing then from on high, why call to the sea ?

Simon

She’s been to Mass, a silken corn, hair in a golden cap, struggling to think, struck like a Grecian urn, I look at the sink, her grace like stance, wild without thorns, a modern day iconoclast, shuddering to trick, what I've discerned, she asks for more drink, if I can say overlaps, churns, laugh’s like a black cat, gliding at the ice rink, her skirts flare, I hear the glass clink, where’s the next pass, a café’ sojourn, is this love at last, as she twirls ?

John

Say life’s so unfair, many a seed sown, then again who cares, if you bring the sea, to face the bright unknown, you’ll find out slowly, red lipstick laughter shared, drink it all down, what you need is more, it doesn’t seem real, were you ever born, to feel such churning need, when someone makes a dare, do you moan, dance unsteadily on chairs, throw away your keys, mask it all with scorn, any wanton creed, give us your daily prayer, make us warm as toast, don’t be scared, love always finds a home.

Dean

We drink together for company, God knows if we’re right, always need sympathy, we are like this couple, who stay out at night, only come awake at noon, all we need is peace. love dances hold us tight, worries don’t guide our being, our dreams sharp and new, march to sunlight, we won’t truck with fools, look how easy, it is to sail the sky, nothing stands our scrutiny, we're so happy and cool, in the morning fire, whatever we say or do, you can hear the sea, when we walk for miles, are you as scared as me, if someone turns the tide?

Caroline

Why seek a useless retreat, for all you cannot find, when nothing seems to please, I won't bear good news, that love just needs time, from me there’s always truth, I hate the hiss of Sardony, that doesn't rate sublime, or sometimes turns to Blasphemy, can't disguise the hue, case what's in his mind, I’ll leave that up to you, he shakes his car keys, the moon is on the rise, but brings no Odyssey, rather than a loving creed, for what you might divine, he'd prefer to bleed, forget any sense of ease, thoughts are the crime, you’ll rage at his deceit, somewhere down the line.

Martha

Nothing’s left to slake, sing any song you choose, seek eternal escape, pray with all your bones, they’re a simple crew, tell them where to go, reason says too late, to heal these broken dues, any brigand seeks escape, prefers to be alone, all of life’s tune, don't worry if I'll cope, find some tide or sail, any sea will do, another lover surely waits, a knife to the throat, we’ll sail across the blue, what is left to hold, except what’s mine anyway, a captain of my slew, treasure from the Spanish Main, I am one sassy dude.
