Callie

I live in a haze, sheltered from the wind, stuck like cellophane, best not to moan, to set a new trend, I just need a loan, won’t jump the train, disappear from the land, use stuff to ingrrain, in my best clothes, I enjoy being kept, even on my bones, can a whole life change, not being friends, love's more than trade, when someone groans, I’ll reach for a pen, sign me over the code, stoke up a blaze, break free of sin, call out your name, he'll understand.

Briana

Dreamy lines won't hurt, enough to crack, into my golden world, silken tents thrown, never collapse, held fast by stones, plates sometimes hurled, whatever holds us back, smiles at cigarette curl, my mind is full blown, other don't always last, consider my lovely home, who can be perturbed, how much love has passed, find ideas well turned, joy is a constant hope, make life hold me fast, before the gentle slope, scribes write or burn, set upon their path, turn my flame up high, let me feel the blast.

Annie

We can sometimes squeeze, from each breath taken, a moment of ease, it makes me swoon, an unwashed face happy, in this bohemian room, outside's a sycamore tree, cars park in the rain, sunlight cuts the breeze, they’re playing our tune, forget lovely holidays, a lorry goes by vroom, painting feeds our frenzy, the bed is a cradle, stars above eternity, we dance on the avenue, each worry tossed away, find our own good news, hear bartenders speak, go go baby create, laugh at the lovely beat, love is what remains.

Zara

Love holds the door ajar, my hair falls down unkind, nowhere gets me very far, am pretty on a stool, drink a little wine, God knows I need a few, you ask about my Da, Oh he’s fine, stuck as usual at the Bar, the money he blew, within that sourball light, poured for another fool, cruising in her fast car, he jokes around her lies, thinks he's a real star, there’s nothing cool, about the hurt inside, except its part of you, wish i wasn't such a nark tears fall from my eyes, wonder why I'm scarred, staring at my time.

Xara Jane

I'm forever beat, even with a common air, hope rescues everything, have a lot of lovers but not much left in there, sometimes blame my mother, I need to shuffle up, heaven is a place to share, sometimes need a shove, when I’ve gone to seed, have a go at taking care, it's not easy being me, get dressed feel the rub, am never short of prayer, a signal to those above, I know how to keep, a house looking fair, drink is my sole conceit, fire brings out the tug, lovely faces dance on stairs, lamp lights shine with love, my smile sits everywhere.

Waverley

Don't forget you're better, red lipstick on your lips, even if sticking together, you don’t live here to lose, blow on your fingertips, there's even more good news, love is not forever, even when you laugh and skip, time is all and never, kick off Monday’s shoes, roll in front of the mirror, always face the truth, nothing beats a conquest, give frustration the slip, an artist’s hope at best, who needs a little blue, you can paint like this, ideas dance in the studio, would you be lesser, if you stood there stripped, binned all his letters, wise in what you miss?

Viola

Don't bother to enquire, why we've been chosen, so much more to deny, laugh at all the crazes, they impose upon us, invoke stupid phrases, ask our favourite line, act as If well spoken, the world catches fire, wonder if we’re lazy, in work shirt and coat, sweet days of praying, they roll the usual lies, verify love's soaking, like clouds in the sky, work in furious phases, bow in cold endurance, ignore their disgraces, a flower lifts our smile, just some little token, makes life worthwhile, stand here unbroken.
