Different Rub

(S. Phillips)
Come over here, out of the rain
Before you get too wet
Under my umbrella
I promise no regrets
Did you see the lightning
This feels like the right thing
Were you looking for perfection
I’m trying to change your perception
I once was a sailor man
Caught up in a raging storm
The weight of waves...

Siamese Twins

Saturday, July 24th, 2010

(B. Walkenhorst)
On walls of caves, down halls and alleys
I write my name, I leave my sign
A poem of paint and bleak graffiti
Something to remember me by
You are my prisoner of memory
A flashing flood, a cracking dam
Can wash away life’s watercolors
Trap you in my house of sand
I scratch my name into your mirror
