One Day, Not Today

Today is special because it is certain
Tomorrow is behind a black curtain
Yesterday exists only in my mind, it seems
Memories are exclusive to my dreams

One day the romance and the lust
Will shrink into a speck of dust
And all the hatred that I had felt
Will hiss and boil over and melt

One day the remorse and the pain
Will go down the bathroom drain
My skin will be moth's food, I'll smile
'Cause I survived on earth this whole while

You and I hate each other we do
But I have a pulse and so do you
One day when we're wrinkled you'll see
Just how special you were to me

And by you I mean everyone I know
I look into heaven and I don't wanna go
Can I love everyone at one time?
I want to hug you all, is that a crime?

One day I'll forgive you and I
I'll meet God up there in the sky
I'll be a number, anon deceased
Remember me, a moth's feast

One day my destinations will be done
I'd have visited every single one
Then I'll kiss all my friends and foes
Into the ocean is where I'll go

Happiness is Pink Jellybeans

Happiness is jumping in a pool of pink jellybeans Feeling the cool candy on my skin Happiness is enjoying the pleasures of life Without worrying about confessing my sins Whoever said that we are gluttons For biting juicy pears on the beach Must never have felt the sand in their toes They must have placed their own soul out of reach And what about greed? It's not all that bad To bury a pile of chestnuts for the spring All animals do it, so why shouldn't we? If it's greedy to love yourself, let it be Lust is the one that makes pastors blush Yet it's one of the greatest joys in the body A kiss and a dance, laughter and romance Why did we ever label this happiness as naughty? Have you ever seen a cat sad when it naps? It is okay to sometimes be lazy The body needs rest as does the mind Or the world will set fire from the crazy If happiness is a sin, then let me smile in hell Looking up at the do-gooders above For to live is to err, to cry, and to sing Happiness is pink jell...

Lost in Rio

Jesus looks over The lost souls and bones below In the jungle sun To witness such beauty And such devastation God painted with one brushstroke Merry men sing Holes in their shoes The dark night lit up By police sirens And the crescent moon Bats flail around Like me, lost in the jungle Eyes glaring all around I hope they're monkeys Or jaguars I hope I can keep a piece of This country with me Safe in my pocket It smells like tropical rain And feels like The clam shells Washed up on the shore It tastes like fried bananas And heavily salted steak Sounds like seabirds cawing Samba on the streets And looks like a page From a storybook About parrots and palm trees Of finding a golden treasure A magnificent, uneasy place When she sun goes down So do we Leaving the night  To the creepy crawlers And innocent stray cats

Lambs

I used to be a scared 'lil lamb Threatened by the horns of every ram In the pond I used to see All my flaws staring back at me I liked to blend in with the flock In a sea of sheep out on the dock In the world I did not trust And after wolves I always did lust Now I've shed this woolen coat I'm friends with ever pig, and horse, and goat I don't fear a wolf in sheep's clothing 'Cause I'm fed up with sick self-loathing I roam the meadows at sunrise No longer obsessed with my demise And in my reflection, all I see Is a lone, brave wolf staring back at me
