Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun

Monday, December 19th, 2011

You gotta be crazy, you gotta have a real need.
You gotta sleep on your toes, and when you’re on the street,
You gotta be able to pick out the easy meat with your eyes closed.
And then moving in silently, down wind and out of sight,
You gotta strike when the moment is right without thinking.

And after a while, you can work on points...

Time

Sunday, June 19th, 2011

Good morning, The Worm, Your Honour,
The Crown will plainly show,
The prisoner who now stands before you,
Was caught red-handed showing feelings.
Showing feelings of an almost human nature.
This will not do.
Call the schoolmaster!
I always said he’d come to no good,
In the end, Your Honour.
If they’d let...

Welcome to the Machine

Friday, June 17th, 2011

(Richard Wright/Anthony Moore)

From morning to night I stayed out of sight
Didn’t recognize I’d become
No more than alive I’d barely survive
In a word…overrun

Won’t hear a sound
From my mouth
I’ve spent too long
On the inside out
My skin is cold
To the human touch
This...

Childhood’s end

Thursday, June 9th, 2011

You shout in your sleep.
Perhaps the price is just too steep.
Is your conscience at rest
If once put to the test?
You awake with a start
To just the beating of your heart.
Just one man beneath the sky,
Just two ears, just two eyes.

You set sail across the sea
Of long past thoughts and memories.
Childhood’s...

Let There Be More Light

Saturday, May 14th, 2011

Into the distance, a ribbon of black
Stretched to the point of no turning back
A flight of fancy on a windswept field
Standing alone my senses reeled
A fatal attraction holding me fast, how
Can I escape this irresistible grasp?

Can’t keep my eyes from the circling skies
Tongue-tied and twisted Just an earth-bound misfit,...

Is there anybody out there?

Saturday, April 16th, 2011

So you thought you might like to,
Go to the show.
To feel the warm thrill of confusion,
That space cadet glow.
Tell me is something eluding you, Sunshine?
Is this not what you expected to see?
If you wanna find out what’s behind these cold eyes,
You’ll just have to blow your way through this disguise.

Us and Them

Sunday, January 9th, 2011

In my rear view mirror the sun is going downSinking behind bridges in the roadAnd I think of all the good thingsThat we have left undoneAnd I suffer premonitionsConfirm suspicionsOf the holocaust to come.
The wire that holds the corkThat keeps the anger inGives wayAnd suddenly it’s day again.The sun is in the eastEven though the day is done.Two suns...
