IF YOU WANT TO USE THE WORDS
FOR ANY REASON
TALK TO ME

MONOLOG

Waiting For Toronto

what metaphor can begin to express
the intensity of my idleness
as I wait here for my happiness
as if I left it behind

what simile can begin to contain
the madness slashing through my brain
as I wonder if I'm insane
as if I lost my mind

just don't tell me
in a soft and pretty rhyme
just don't tell me
condemned for all time

I can believe I am wrong
hit an off note in my song
and forgot how to be strong
giving up on me

I can accept that I failed
on my own pitard, impaled
but do I have to be jailed
for eternity?

tell me what's true
in a soft and pretty rhyme
tell me are you
condemned for all time

so you make mistakes
and had mean bad breaks
and you bit the hand that fed you
and it bit you back
and then you lost track
or how many others bed you
and nights of despair
made you unaware
that the light of hope was fading
and when it went out
you were left with doubt
feeling only the degrading

and wondering why and laughing inside
at the madness of why not
what made us think it was genius?
now what have we got?

the promise so far
left us were we are
in a soft and pretty rhyme
is it just a tear
is it just a fear
is it to appear
sublime
to finally be aware
when you wanted to care
you failed to share
by design
and when all's said and done
there is just the run
alone with your gun
and mine
in a soft and pretty rhyme
the bottom line
condemned for all time
in a soft and pretty rhyme
an aching whine
condemned for all time

what analogy can compromise
the universe within those eyes
an eternity of surprise
for what wonder to wait

like when the washer stops you remember
you forgot to turn on the dryer
and amidst damp clothes
someone knows
for it shows
as it flows
as it grows
and so it goes
and so it goes
and so it goes

NOTE: Due to excessive comment SPAM, comments have been turned off... ironically, this month is the renewal for supergold membership and the comments feature... bad timing... you know how much I love feedback, so maybe there's be comments again one of these days... until then, please leave a note... thanks J




I love you all for coming... for reading all these words
for every click feels like more love (I know that sounds absurd)
if I could only tell you... one thing more tonight
I'd say
I wish you could come home with me and be my friends for life
