Him and Her (for Battle of the Sexes)
Silencing calls, that question my worth
Heart in a spin, migrating from earth
Finished the goose chase, end of the line
To planet piano bar; long legs and wine
I’ll read the news, it says you should go
High on the wheel, get set for the low
Call me a taxi: never a fool
I’m off to the city, starting anew
Think I’m a punk? Letting off steam!
Head in the stars? Living the dream!
Distance at light speed? Less than a year!
Getting the message? Sent it by meteor!

The Fable (for Poetry & Fairytales)
She arrested the gait of a unicorn
With a leap off sand by tranquil sea
Take for your blessing a message from me
Deliver in a shower of woodland starlight
Shimmering gaze of covetous green
Thieves in the rock by Delphic deep
From pool to breeze unseen is she
Concealed in the folds of an easterly
Down the valley to the western city
In and out ruins of ages past
Powerful music; hidden in strings
Long- time friend of harmony…
