Tomorrow is the one day I would change for a Monday. with freezing rains melting and no trains running. and sad eyes passing in windows flimsy. and my seat rocking from legs not quite matching.
Hand in the snake pit, black mamba chase. Head through the lion's cage, head on a plate. Two feet on the hot coals, last dance at the ball. Blindfold on the tightrope whenever you call.
I looked in the mirror then. Saw my face in a dream.. With eyes sharp as diamonds. Blessed with clear vision.. Things were not as they seemed.. Black and white television.
Got a birthday card at Christmas. It made me think of Jesus Christ. It said, "I love you" in small letters. I simply had to read it twice. . Wood smoke curled from blackened chimneys.
Marty loved the sound of the stolen mandolin.. Somebody took it on a dare in the night-time.. Run up to the radio, calling out to the wind.. Now, bring it, bring it back at least an hour before flight time..
The mist rolls off the beaches:. the train rolls into the station.. weekend happiness seekers pent-up saturation.. well, we don't mean anyone any harm,.
Small child messing down, messing down.. in the streets of Bombay.. Cities like this have no shame, no shame;. indeed, why should they?. Out in the middle distance, several tragedies are playing..
All your best friends' telephones. never cooled from the heat of your hand.. there's a line in a front-page story,. 13 horses that also-ran.. climb in your old umbrella..
She's catching the wind: the gentlest of breezes.. It's a sensitive passage she's sailing -. Through stormy straits, navigates my unfathomable failings..
Have you ever stood in the April wood. and called the new year in?. While the phantoms of three thousand years fly. as the dead leaves spin?. There's a snap in the grass behind your feet.
From early days of infancy, through trembling years of youth. Long murky middle age and final hours long in the tooth. Here's the hundred names of terror, creature you love the least.
You're taking chances. And your reputation's going down.. Going out in the night-time. You think you make no sound.. But you don't fool me. `Cos I know what you feel..

Six o'clock in the morning. Wake up by the bed. There sits a new Japanese toy. And I like it. . See the name on the wrapping. Can't read yet but I know.
Windy bus-stop. Click. Shop-window. Heel.. Shady gentleman. Fly-button. Feel.. In the underpass, the blind man stands.. With cold flute hands.. Symphony match-seller, breath out of time..
Yes'n she's bad-eyed and she's loveless.. A young man's fancy and an old man's dream.. I'm self raising and I flower in her company.. Give me no sugar without her cream..

My telephone wakes me in the morning --. Have to get up to answer the call.. So I think I'll go back to the family. Where no one can ring me at all.. Living this life has its problems.
In and out of the front door,. Ran twelve back-door angels.. Their hair was a golden-brown. They didn't see me wink my eye.. 'Tis said they put we men to sleep.
