“Slander”
Turn your back to me
that I may lash you and dice you
for my song and dance are like honey
but my bite is like a bear trap
when I sink my teeth in
you will never escape
the world shall know my innocence
the world shall speak of your cowardice
when I vandalize you with my
vicious, spiteful tongue
when all is said and done,
have I not won?

“My Love, My Love”
My love, my love, why do you hide from me?
I have longed for you and in my dreams hear you call
My heart searches the sky, the mountains and the sea
But always you keep your face hidden from me
My love, my love, do you not hear my cry?
I can hear the echo as it rises and falls
It seems you grow fainter the harder I try
Could it be that the promise you spoke was a lie?
My love, my love, I am no longer young
My life has been shortened, it soon will be gone
I am wasting and still hear the songs that you sung
And whispering in my ear are the words of your tongue
