The two of us may get eaten up Or then the tiger he will sup A crocodile very fond of children too Crocodile and tiger biting the Fool Crocodile and Monkey and Sphinx on Fortune’s Wheel Bacon Double Cheeseburger it’s a steal!/ Treading cautiously into the Future Three War droids they’re coming at ya From a castle to a store the little black book has spread some more On standby at the castle gate for the Mission we await Just a gift perhaps a fancy Like a Lodestone it is standing

6- THE RUBY- Pilgrim’s Rest where I long to be With our heads above the clouds Where we can see/ She says we have no conversation Some square of sense though excitation Headband on with purple mirrored shades Bindings locked With skis ablaze Twelve Lords a leaping on Winter Days/ Got the map so piste go crazy On the Moon not for the lazy Bright pink gloves to keep me warm Mobile so you know the form Nitty gritty presents at Dawn/ Red Sulphur matches might splinter As I try to light the fire It is so hard The Ruby my desire In the snow a pile of bones Where we find our spiritual home A man a woman then a woman and a man that is how the story began/ Brooding skies swirling dangerously With displeasure above me What we have done we can’t undo Reality dawns on me and you Despite our efforts love kills us too For a week I stalled you Just for to see How events would pan out down upon the scene For even when the Gods conspire against us We are man and woman no less We’ll bottom out and find our level In sympathy but not for the Devil
7- CAUGHT BY THE SUN- Jupiter has orbited Since we’ve known each other From the Season of the Witch Strong girl my lover My strong girl whatever/ Not fated yet nor undercover The Sun himself caught us together/ A lioness she’s teasing me Toying with her fantasies As a pride we seem to be Crowscarer where all the birds they flee/ I’m sure you want a clean show But we’ve got a nest of vipers on the go Like a snake She slithers to and fro When only the best will know Completion when she turns to you Sausage and mustard is her food/ Vast Empire on a fine communist evening We’re here for good We won’t be leaving A sacrifice for the Sun indeed Lay it on the altar watch it bleed Good will the Apollo code Something like the Mars Hotel Blank hyphen blank blank Blank hyphen blank Hyphen blank Hyphen blank Hyphen blank
8-CONSTELLATION- One among the millions Seeking far to roam Above me no answers A woman guides me home Like mighty warriors We stand thus far alone/ Constellation upon her face Star system human race Fully on she rides apace/ Three sisters disagree sometimes Notting Hell it often rhymes Ride the darkest night skies out Rhyme and reason sing and shout Conducting elements far and wide Reach crescendo by and by Bolt gun beside her Ask questions later/ Head like a crown tail like a key The Doje’s wand it seems to be And sets its template on history Weave the currents effortlessly Centre down like gravity Pick the lock to set us free/ Keep it for another day This is where we begin again Beyond the Fool to other chains we chase...
