Natalia

We live or die in here, the first one offers wine, others circle near, bereft of dreams lonely stars, our debts are high, the journey’s never are, moon bright clifftops shear, lit by hidden lights, who can hide their fear, someone makes a mark, another wonders why, it beats in unhappy hearts, ice as bright as tears, chill our ghostly ride, danger is forever near, forget their shining cars, they don’t see us cry, before we approach the Arc, we will cost them dear, deprived us of our rights, cool, considered, clear, we aim our fire.

Dont forget you're better, than those you kiss, they can only stick together, they come here for booze, look like they're clipped, some are unhooked, strain to see my breasts, everything they miss, feel they aren't blessed, no time for Monday’s Blues, when they see my hips, study this thing called truth, forget ny easy duress, I'm as tough as shit, play music only by request, look at all of you, does your heartbeat skip, if you take me for a fool, would it make you better, if I turned and stripped, steamed up your kettle, let the ropes go kid ?

What do you care, if worries stretch my face, you’d think it fair, the tunes in blue trees, say you need space, spun on the breeze, you still won't share, time that we framed, place who put me there, chained to inequity, hostile as your gaze, it's a hymn to serendipity, I know what's in the air, how your voice raises, when you're scared, down harried streets, trying to dodge fate, acting sugar sweet, you're not worth my glare, think you're so great, not even aware, how I pass the days?

Your face an empty zone, very far from ecstasy, tells all I need to know, far away in real time, the daily conspiracy, my life stutters the line, your mouth's a cruel loan, my words have worked free, keeps me on my toes, most days I drink wine, it's there to ease, you and other lousy swine, every lie a fine toothcomb, dancings bears around honey, smiles like stone roses, our house besides the sea, bottom of a sand road, begets some other fantasy, your body lists and groans, murder dares me to be, an angel coming home, I can watch on TV.

What dreams do we keep, they ask us the ghosts, sat on bar stools seats, leave us alone we say, our skin might need soap, but we're here to stay, we are not upbeat, if they splay out the rope, what will be will be, do what we do anyway, face as strong as stones, throw all our cares today, music from the deep, carries tiny rays of hope, deep within our state, don't ask us to play, tunes we do not know, life is a great big cake, we all need our sleep, stuff we use to cope, if you could only see, the way we rattle home.

Who can't dream of empathy, sitting on a wall, listening to the sea, you catch my eyes awake, dancing on thorns, why treat me like a fake, each day of uncertainty, brings protest to my calls, absence of how to feel, I'd like to stake, a fear of being torn, is the cause of heartache, someone asks me, a penny for your thoughts, I say infidelity, doubts fog my days, sometimes wonder if I'm born, fear manifests craze, waves crash on the lee, glad what i've been taught this is really me, watching enthralled.

Youre a fool at dawn, to say something like that, your eyes like frogspawn, I want to be at sea, on a wooden raft, leave me time to dream, summon ancient charm, from our little chats, you're not even warm, need to speak clearly, roar like a big cat, this is how I'm feeling, does it make you torn, your love on the flat, I still have some form, ride rails dance and weep, adjust my Ray-Bans, drain nights before I sleep, gallop through the dawn, don't have to wear a hat, act like I'm never born, make life a gas?
