Lala

Sometimes i am squeezed, with the smiles she makes, her manner sleepy easy, love lights mark her cheeks, Nina is playing, by the old Levee, when she was free, New Orleans was shaking, washed sea green, the moon her leader, knows what she's doing, in a magnolia cotton sheet, her long gait and knees, pulls at my traces, makes a whispered plea, does it scare me really, listening to the rain, in a room that creeks, then turns opaque.

mix this with soft o and soft u glove, love, rub, tub, dove,nub, scrub,plug,dug,rug, hard u, hard i You remember that tune, take your time, do you want me hum it for you, the face that haunts you, forgives all generous lies, draws your fire, beats true, will you who live always rue, mysteries of your line, hear rain tick off a boom, listen to the wind croon, shudder with the wine, down your next avenue, an ongoing family feud, the early shipwreck signs, a golden dawn flaunts you, marks your ruin, rubbishes all your designs, gathers the spirit, disses you, don't look frightened.

Does your husband's curfew, make you to suffer still, light holy candles be rude, give money to every fool, see you stumble, fall ill, draw salt at your blues, incant you with perfume, when life becomes shrill, cut your love collect dues, or will they see a river bloom, worrying at the chill, of someone else's moods, the ones who say see you soon, turn laughter to dust still, with dreams of good news, put you in a Catholic refuge, scrub away your thrills, hold freedom sing awful tunes, worry about your will ?

Roshin

Those little bits of you, ignore schemes that immobilise, you need more than hooks, don't settle for any news, roll, dance, find someone wise, stay at sea, or brook, philosophers who soothe, only the edge is fine, find your own truth, read all your books, they always give reasons why, don't overlook, your piece of ruin, seize the time 'as mine,' wear jeans and shiny shoes, fall for anyone's Blues, try to inspire, why you always pay dues, take me to the fire.

Rori

My time gone by unspoken, not even drunk enough to try, afraid of kids, family broken, our place gone by boarded, beyond the grave here's a why, love here feels crowded, bridges where we stand soaking, outside heaven’s why, you look shrunk and folded, a mystery horizon foreboded, come on love you sigh, sing a song don't blow it, feels like i've been sold, being brave only to try, and question this summer’s form, to rescue god or coax, a button from the sky, not just some little token, more to wear with pride.

Ria

My weekend sings, des chit chat, une espresso, when no one rings me, the silent majority, dejeuner avec lavorro, have no time to sing, not for them the sea, Martini, Amaretto, my coastline is free, of consumptive vulgarity, no lunchtime cornetto, needs vitiate me, let them scream, pasta, wine, siesta i'm my best Sunday dream, say stupid things, at evening's excess stroll at my beach, a lonely success.

Rona

She wakes in golden belief, the sound of a Holsum van, and wonders about a novena, each dance is a feast, moves her like no one can, every tune lets them see her, like the wood colour season, the bars are full of men, she drinks within reason, they rise to greet her, she graces them with elan, each sea green evening, but barefoot pays the heating, its better than having plans, a cabin makes it easier, if communion is a keeper, between rich and poor man, justice brings no lesion, she won’t refuse women.
