When Under Ether

The ceiling is moving, 
moving in time,
like a conveyor belt 
above my eyes.

When under ether
the mind comes alive, 
conscious of nothing 
but the will to survive.

I lay on the bed,
waist down undressed, 
look up at the ceiling 
feeling happiness.

Human kindness;

the woman beside me 
is holding my hand,
I point at the ceiling, 
she smiles, so kind.

Something's inside me 
unborn and unblessed, 
disappears in the ether 
this world to the next.

Human kindness.

A Perfect Day Elise

He got lucky one time
hitting with the girl in room 509.
She turned her back on him, facing the frame 
said, Listen Joe, don't you come here again.

White sun scattered all over the sea.
He could think of nothing but her name Elise. 
God is the sweat running down his back.
The water soaked her blonde hair black.

It’s a perfect day Elise.

He got burned by the sun.
His face so pale and his hands so worn. 
Let himself in room 509,
said a prayer pulled the trigger and cried,

It's a perfect day Elise.


Is This Desire?

Rid Of Me

Sheela-Na-Gig

I've been trying to show you over and over; 
look at these my child-bearing hips. 
Look at these my ruby, red ruby lips.
Look at these, my work strong arms and 
you've got to see my bottle full of charm.
I lay it all at your feet, 
you turn around and say back to me,

Sheela-na-gig. Sheela-na-gig. 
You exhibitionist!

I’m gonna wash that man right out of my hair. 
[Just like the first time, said you didn't care]. 
Wash that man right out of my hair.
[Heard it before, no more].
Wash that man right out of my hair. 
[Turn the corner, another one there]. 
Wash that man right out of my hair. 
[Heard it before].

He said,
Sheela-na-gig. Sheela-na-gig. 
You exhibitionist!
Put money in your idle hole.

Gonna wash that man right out of my hair. 
[Just like the first time, said you didn't care]. 
Wash that man right out of my hair.
[Heard it before, no more].
Take my hips to a man who cares. 
[Turn the corner, another one there]. 
Take my hips to a man who cares.
[Heard it before].

He said,
Sheela-na-gig. Sheela-na-gig. 
You exhibitionist!
Put money in your idle hole.

He said,
Wash your breasts, I don't want to be unclean.
He said,
Please take those dirty pillows away from me.
