Lonny

I'm not your drip, within a big sea, the yellow light hid, what about your lover, with all her surly needs, has she got your number, how you want to live, alongside your creed, having money to mint, does this make you wonder, in your pitiless belief, to tear the rich asunder, stones and pieces of drift, land above the tidal scree, they are not your gift, enslaved or encumbered, face a lifetime of greed, instead of sweet slumber, state you leave me in, a life's end in weeds, heaven is not fibs, none of us need.

ON these long nights, side by side in harmony, we are cool anthracite, why take a train, or sail out to sea, when there are jet planes, so far we're all right, who needs reason, to act like young socialites, it's fun being away, we never ever concretely, inquire about pain, a long silent birthright, doesn’t stand scrutiny, at what we can’t buy, our horizon’s on display, the sun is all-seeing, it beats out the strain, we ate so free, we say from on high, below us eternitu, don’t ask us why?

Poppy

He acts like he's right, can demand anything, sunlight water sky, like the waves for'ard, his smile is estuary wide, asks for a fresh start, he never leaves my side, but sits here and flings, sobriquets to the fire, his legs pound the boards, he bellows for a ring, words spill golden hoards, next to me he's bright, lips twist like centimes, a millionaire's smile, but his eyes go hard, an actorwhose fame sings, to drop any guard, he dances in the tide, his day is just beginning, nails me with that smile, am i the one forgiven ?

Oriana

I don't need a shrink, but a lover that skates, over his time to think, whom I might disown, like a shire horse dray, his word skim and spray, I know what you think, you don't need to say, my home is an ice rink, letters from ocean towns, make a useful display, everything upside down, I swerve on the brink, though these Spring days, dishes gather in the sink, the stuff that I swallow, would make a priest blink, sweat gathers on my brow, takes a gold medallion, to hold open my gate, my face a little pink, wind at my sails.

Nancy

What might have been, is not always fair, for a life of ease, sing me the blues, say you’re too aware, to turn to virtue, flowing like a bitter stream, your nostrils flared, it's never a simple dream, tell me the truth, is my voice so slurred, do you need more juice, we drink on sad evenings, would you care, if my heart stopped beating, look at me I seethe, is it my wrecked chair, does it hurt to breathe, can you still love me, think you’ll dare, my path to the sea, are you scared?

Mona

Your smile's a prance, no fear of being caught, over smart tongued chat, take all the bean counters, you show around the course, make them turn around, wounds that you’ve lanced, singing yourself hoarse, let others call it balance, when they seem to rant, show how you to go taut, give some glib answer, hold your nerve and ask, is this what they're taught, by rich happenstance, forget the missed chances, work out the score, wheel it to the chaps, sip vodka from a flask, those who are caught, always want your glance, their eyes frozen.

Lucy

A cold wind blows, it stokes my fear, who remains in the know, pearl doves arc above, what else is clear, so far away from love, give me money for clothes, everything’s so dear, you're not a bad Joe, detail those who're rough, weather suits us here, we understand the rub, if my vision's slow, It can still be clear, we are never alone, blreeze across the coves, don't worry if you fear, someone always shows, dressed in my long coat, spring is late this year, kiss me to my toes, eschew sympathy tears.
