In Memory of Cassandra

Women be wise, keep your mouth shut, don't advertise your man Don't sit around gossiping, explaining what your good man really can do Some women nowadays, Lord they ain't no good They will laugh in your face, Then try to steal your man from you Women be wise, keep your mouth shut, don't advertise your man Don't be no fool

Frankenstein

I don't know you from adam
you could make my day
if you leave me a message
I'll give it away
cuz the most perfect strangers
that you can talk to
are the ones who pretend
that you're not really you

I want any attempts here
to play Frankenstein
Come with plenty of chances
for changing you mind
When you're building your own creation
Nothing's better than real
Than a real imitation

I won't find it fantastic
Or think it absurd
When the gun in the first act
Goes off in the third
'Cause it's rare that you ever know
What to expect
From a guy made of corpses
With bolts in his neck

If the creature is limping
the parts are in place
With a mind of its own
and a fist for a face
Say hello to your new creation
Now it's better than real
It's a real imitation

You may wonder what the catch is
As you batten down the hatches

And when later we find
That the thing we devised
Has the villagers clamouring
For its demise
We will have to admit
The futility of
Trying to make something more
Of this jerry-built love

And you'll notice it bears
a resemblance to
Everything I imagined
I wanted from you

But at least its my own creation
And it's better than real
It's a real imitation

sigh.. like a night in the forest, like the mountains in springtime, like a walk in the rain. my senses are full. (and as a result my allergies are wreaking total havoc on me. I totally need a new script)

10 more minutes til red hair again. delightful. Im at home for the moment, i have work in a half hour. Yeah this'll be a tight squeeze.

Distractions keep me from being able to say anything worth reading. =-(

unlock my body and move myself to dance. Good times dancing this week.

but yeserday.. sheesh nail me to the wall
