Rasputina

She was born in an oil-drum South side of Chicago
When East St. Louis was not far away.
She'd lace knives to her boots and go down to the riverbed
Skate around and around till the night became day.The cannery fellows would follow her everywhere
From the grocery store to the B.Q.E.
With their hearts all aglow from her icy back-at-you stare.
When her teeth became tight when her eyes couldn't see.And she told herself that this was enough.
For a girl who was born in an oil-drum
She had her skates didn't need lots of stuff.
She didn't need it but she still wanted some.She had one thing that she liked and she kept around
She would take it with her to the riverbed.
As she skated around she always thought of a pretty sound
That she heard as a girl in her mother's bed.
The sound of some breathing another breath in and out
When some lungs expand and contract like they do.
And she looked at herself in the ice of the riverbed and
She saw a girl one which she could see through.

The similarities and situation between the Donner Party and the Colonial Pilgrims is
both appalling, frightening, and incomplete. In both cases, you'll find one: a fairly large
group of ill-prepared greenhorns pitting themselves against nature and each other; two:
an insufficient willingness to endure the very real hardships of frontiering, and three:
coincidental misfortune at every turn.
Disasters of both camps were initially brought about by departure, delay, desert, inertia;
which caused our heroes to begin their journeys at absolutely retarded times weather-
wise. If fantasy is the refuge of a frightened man, and a castle in the air is a safe harbor
for a foolish few, just imagine living in a hut buried twelve feet below the snow, with the
sight and smell of the scattered carcasses of loved ones at your feet; it is the lay of the
land, just another day. I would like to propose that cannibalism was indeed rampant
among America's earliest settlers: The Pilgrims. For what does settler imply, if not the
willingness to settle? To settle for a meal of human flesh if my thoughts on the subject
are to be believed. In conclusion, spread the word of this. Look to the night sky, and
hark back to our forefathers' shortcomings, (and your own), as you cut your meat and
lay the groundwork for a new tomorrow

Morning has broken and what do I see but
those same bloody fingerprints following me
it don't pay to be careful don't pay to be nice
So it's backwards and forwards and back again twice
I don't think I'll try it again.
Guilty was all that I felt until now

I rode my bicycle past your window last night
I rollerskated to your door at daylight
It almost seems like you're avoiding me
I'm okay alone but you've got something I need
I've got a brand new pair of rollerskates
You've got a brand new key
I think that

Two big babies met
On a winter's day.
They thought they'd get
All dressed up to play.So they went outside,
Never to return.
They laugh, they hide.
Babies never learn.But they cry and they cry.
Who said babies never die?
They cry.
Who said babies nev

He want you to put this plate of crumbs back into the frigerator
When you do, he wants you to make sure to bring this plate with dessert later
Stand to the right
Give him a bite
Insulate the bed
Shoot him up when he's dead.
He wants you to take a box kleenex and cut it with a knife
Use a stack of tissues for each hand
killing germs could save his life
Climb into the cockpit
He drops his pants to grin
Just act like it's nothing
Just nod and smile at him.
Howard Hughes pops a valium blue
and he reclines the naked chair
and watches just one more movie
Howard Hughes has got something on you
when the fingers grow long
And the toenails they wrap around him
Howard Hughes
What he did
What he'd do
He wants you to seal windows and doors of his hotel room with tape
He will be alowed to pee on floors
cause his codeine constipates.
Listen to him moan
About a multi million loan
Don't answer the phone.
It's been a long time since he's flown.

We like to smoke pot
We like it a lot
Our small eyes are tearing for what we have not
Our small eyes are tearing for what we have not
The nice pipe is here
A lighter is near
I won't become freaked out

sister dear
I won't become freaked out

sister dear
We miss the blue sky
It is cold
we will cry
Our being mind is waning and we now know why
Our being mind is waning and we now know why
We want to feel warm
yet outside the norm
We want to be a cradle held
and then to be reborn

They saw her break through barriers forty feet high
It was the finest moment in a long life
Young boys would hang her pictures over their bed
They saw her mouth move but they couldn't hear what she said
You're a souvenir a darling dear
She used to say tha

Dig Ophelia
consider it dug
Flowers madness and polar bear rug
Here's the water, just ankle deep high
Lay back relax and look up at the sky.
Your eyes never close
your mind's not at rest
Lay back, get waterlogged
Give us a kiss
Water spreads the small s

If you think real hard about the aches, the card, the blackboard that you've drawn on for so long. You realize that it's gone, and with it that swan song, the mirror of your life has turned to shards. If that means broken glass, na'er you won't have the chance to laugh at those who always laughed at you. Think back - yes it's cool, to jump up and be through, when even worser things have come to pass

I keep pictures of him in my mind yeah you know the
kind they curl up on the edges, the corners are bended
into a trickpulled from behind.Physically he is serene he looks good he looks
clean yeah I know he's dead but I know what he
said and I think I might know what he mean.With many thanks for your well, well wishes he says
believe me, sincerely yours
Mr. E Leon Rauis would say
it's sentiment which he abhors.Seventeen Union Square North did he walk back and
forth in the glass at the shop did he smile did he
stop for awhile did he question his worth?Seventeen Union Square West dressed up looking his best
Mr. E. Leon Rauis could never know
how this would seem his one small request.With many thanks for your well, well wishes he says
believe me, sincerely yours
Mr. E Leon Rauis would say
it's sentiment which he abhors.Regretfully so he still wants you to know of the
things in his heart he can't say.His penmenship does a disservice,
It's illegible to this day.Oh, Mr. E. Leon Rauis believe me
I hope it all turned out O.K.Picking a shop for the shoot did he buy a new
suit? was he tall, was he kind, did he finally
find it that day, was his end absolute?He got old like everyone, was he somebody's
son? did he fall, did he try to succeed or deny
what he knew or things he had done?

You're not the boy that you say you are.
You come from outerspace you drive a rental car.
Thanks, but no thanks just the same.Time was when this became obvious.
You're eyes were never clear, you did not eat enough.
Strangely afraid of the rain.Trust all stars.
Never ask your way around.
Buffalo is Venus.
Texas is a town.Planets we know do come and go
When meltable aliens run toward the snow.
Missions are fine but piece of mind
Won't come from a boyfriend who lies all the time.Alien wishes won Damn the sight
Scanning those soggy skies with a small reading light.
harder to see late at night.Millions of listeners close their ears
Hoping their dinner's warm stifling sunny cheers.
Wait till dinner's done to start to fight.

If you want to know how
To fly high then go now
To the place where all the concubines
Meet and converse with them
Marvel at their pale skin
Wonder how they chew with their pointy

Teeth and hair are beauty
They know it's their duty
To be Countess in their hearts and their

Minds that have to whisper
See in them a sister
Look into their eyes and you'll be a

Transylvanian Concubine
You know what flows there like wine

Sorrow was their master
Cackling with laughter
Now he's having just one piece of

Cakey is their make up
Catholics try to shake up
All the things that form their lives, but they're
Dead, their sigh is their song
They know what they do is wrong

Candelabra's lighted
Satan has been sighted
Never has there been an evening like

This is what they wanted
Always to feel hunted
You can never be too rich or too

Thin. The blood has run out
Fangs ruin any cute pout
Morning has come now they've flown
What have you learned from what has been shown
