“Secret Oktober”

wise on a birthday party

in a world full of surprising fireworks

and sudden silence (shhh!)

lies on a stranger’s bed

the new day breaks like a speeding train

or an old friend—ever expected, but never knocking

holding your own in a battered car

all night parties, cocktail bars, and smile

when the butterfly escapes the killing jar

sure eyes awake before the dancing is over

wise or naked in secret oktober

freefall on a windy morning shore

nothing but a fading track of footsteps

could prove that you’d ever been there

spoken on a cotton cloud

like the sound of gunshots taken by the wind

and lost in distant thunder

racing on a shining plane

tomorrow you’ll be content to watch as the lightning plays along the wires

and you’ll wonder

sure eyes awake before the dancing is over

wise or naked in secret oktober

sure eyes awake before the dancing is over

wise or naked in secret oktober

Wildflower

lead Me down to where You sleep

where I awoke so fearlessly

awake from nightmares

warned of the abduction

Angel Girl,

the candle's end is near

cut Me now

sever Me from this breeze

hear Me, Baby

hear Me, Baby

I bear all My blood to You

so afraid I found hunger these few days we have known

abandon Me

Wildflower,

tell Me now, if You please

how You inject so painlessly

You stand by the window

miles from My affections

Angel Girl,

from the highways

across the world

sever Me from this breeze

hear Me, Baby

hear Me, Baby

I bear all My blood to You

You know You keep Me alive with that something I fear

abandon Me

oh no, Baby

oh no, Baby

You know how You make Me feel

You’ve been standing there holding a gun in Your hand

don’t use it …

… please
