Ully
Gazing at a tramp,
stood by a tree shaking,
staying there looking damp,
listen to some muted song,
inside me one never fails,
face the need to belong,
better not take a chance,
cautious of this silly game,
test myself for balance,
hope I’m not wrong,
looking at the rain,
pehaps he'll play along,
ask how much his path,
is sweetened from my gains,
no more pennies to cast,
maybe he'll hold my locket,
say sister you're great,
turn gold in his pocket,
it somegow makes me laugh,
quick to praise each day.
what do I get out of this,
shuffle my remains? ,

C’mon don’t let me flail,
a snowball left to dance,
inside rooms darkest pale,
I always play the fool,
waiting for the chance,
maybe some path to smooth,
nothing more to say,
so little is pure grant,
when we play away,
I rage against your news,
lilac at a lonely repast,
how it feeds our feuds,
my life's a freight train,
brakes always slammed,
lead me to the homegate,
tell me what to do,
please God make a stance,
I'm nobody’s fool,
help me gain my balance. .

Who threw away the years,
every age has its must,
laughs and happy tears,
any life's too short,
for the ones you trust,
a pale toil of waters,
you ran wawy from here,
within the falling dusk,
stars saw you dance clear,
knew you’d be sought,
spinning pennies for luck,
brought back to Court,
you lived free from fear
on this tidal flood,
was it me too insincere,
not being overawed,
did you ask too much,
the fact now you're bust,
blow flame across my fears,
give me back your touch,
laugh before you disappear,
that's what I thought,

Who needs a shrink,
when a lover somehow,
always wants a drink,
one day he might stroll,
down roads up and down,
most times he lies low,
know what they think,
always misses the morrow,
his head down a sink,
a display all his own,
to show he’s no clown,
outrage now he’s gone,
face like an ice rink
a whole investment blown,
I work and don't think,
who will want me now,
tear up my best gown,
heavy as a wooden pole,
politics dull pink,
sweat shines my brow,
he left without a blink,
who am I to wallow ? .

Don't want to say no ,
ask you to sign,
allay those bitter tones,
know what’s at issue,
when you burn like fire,
set all dreams loose,
chances are I’ll follow,
kids dancing on a tyre,
nowhere else to go ,
you play at the fool,
mouth what is right,
I recognise the tune,
won't accept this farrago,
in morning’s cold light,
rooms without windows,
places smoky blue,
where you lose sight,
of what is before you,
please let me know,
if I’m on your mind,
riding high on the blow,
not wasting my time.

I read and hums a tune,
say its stupid to lie,
just want shut of you,
like a dog far from home,
you don't want to fight,
but droop to be alone,
the elephant in the room,
heaves another sigh,
talk of kids makes you blue,
always late coming home,
your eyes a constant why,
worries if I'm done,
he can blow the juice,
sick of terrible denying,
asks what else to lose,
guilty people do atone,
but his snuffled lies,
crook like a country road,
can i speak some truth,
my hands address the light,
have no more need of you,
go take a dive..

You who own the night,
the wind hushed sand dunes,
do you wonder why,
I need a cheerful romeo,
carpet beat the blues,
always on the go,
dismiss the bitter times,
all the cruel untruths,
these are welcome times,
dreams of flying solo,
wrecked when I see you,
since your last show,
the air plashes by,
the evening's getting cool,
some wait all their lives,
if i touch the stones,
let fingers feel the spume,
know what's gone before,
men whistle as passing by,
I laugh and hum a tune,
say it's stupid to lie,
my heart’s a dry saloon.
