Summer

Summer Summer
What a Bummer
It has to end
and it makes me sad
I go back to school
and do real bad.

Mexican Chocolate

Sips from the bowl, savoring the taste of each mouthful
Like basil and chili
Like honey from the desert
Like the richest broth imaginable

It is the taste of all things.
At its end, it is
molten soft cocoa, coating
the heart without compunction.
His head is knocked back,
and he reels,
punchdrunk.

Silent Torment

Held in limbo
A love so true
Both of us so fragile
Not knowing what to do

I want to let the world know
Scream from mountains high
Where did our dreams go
I hope they didn't die

Afraid some may not understand
You ask me to be silent
I fell for you so deeply
You were surely heaven sent

An angel at my side
In a blanket of our love
You bring me so much happiness
Sent from up above

I hear your whispers
Feel you near
Though you are far away
If we could only be together
But not for just one day...

Our was dream disrupted
Other forces here at play
Together we are powerful
Our love is here to stay

We never meant to hurt them
It wasn't in the plans
You hold a heart thats fragile
So gently in your hands..

Shattered in a thousand ways
It beats for only you
Held together with a bond
That only comes from you

Motion

Motion besides me
Moving along
The tears that drive me
Stare at the sun

Emotions behind me
Words that run dry
The fear that surrounds me
Loose and undone

Words run through me
Thoughts leave me by
I try, look around me
Causes me to cry

Motion behind me
Emotion run dry
The fears that surround me
The tears sting my eye  

though talk of beer is deep and dark
a sip my lips cannot partake
of many things on shelf I'd parked
include the vice of potent slake
I just cannot abide that thirst
my health for it would turn the worst.                

but cheer ye up, my hearty friends
and sadden not the bleary eyes
Continue slurping suds and blends
and allow me adopt the guise
of tilting up my pepsi diet
and keep my uproar to a riot                

toast you though, and hold not back
tis only brain cells that you'll lack
and won't you know twill be such fun
to kill them off, all one by one
and burp a little there for me
remind me of my former glee.
                

gosh, I'm running out of rhyme
how does ymir do it all the time?

"Tetanus & Hepatitis B"

I thought that the nurse
Would do me no harm
Til i saw the 2 big needles
she wanted to stick in my arm
I cried and i begged,
i pleaded and i moaned,
'Just shut up and take it!'
My poor father groaned.
I stomped and i pouted
I half ran out of the room
But that nurse locked the door shut
And advance, proclaiming doom
The first shot she jabbed in my left arm
Well, it hardly hurt a bit
So when i saw the second coming
I wasn't really afraid of it
Well, was i in for a surprise
When that needle reached my skin
Although i screamed like a banshee
When she first stuck the needle in
The first five seconds i got to thinking
This pain is none too intense
After the next 20 seconds though,
I started to lose my sense
'Please,' i begged the nurse
'Please let this be through!'
But she continued to ignore me
As the pain just grew and grew
Finally it was over,
She released her hold on me
Slapped a band-aid on my bleeding arm
Said 'Go now!' and
'Be Free!'
Last night i couldn't sleep on my side
So i stayed awake instead
This morning i had a pain in my arm
And i've been walking like the living dead
So thank you, doctors everywhere
For that wonderful, wonderful shot
I'm sure someone is thankful for them
But at the moment, i am not.

"A Late Night Ride"

I went a-riding late one night,
and rode and rode until the dawn,
We ran into the blinding light,
and ran some more, till it was gone.
We galloped on into the day,
never stopping; who needs sleep?
Mortis let out a mighty neigh,
and strove his awesome stride to keep.
He grew tired, by and by,
but galloped on, up and away,
until I finally had to cry,
"Stop! We'll ride some other day.!"
Mortis turned to look at me,
and I could almost here a voice,
"Won't you please just let me be,
it's not your place to make the choice."
So we went on, across the plain,
owner of all that we could see,
we journeyed on, though it be in vain,
for someplace better for us to be.
Then finally, so faint and dim,
I saw a wonderous, breathtaking sight.
I prodded Mortis, poked at him,
and said, "Run on! We'll win this fight!"
The pace grew harder as time went by,
but finally we reached our goal.
And then I let out a terrible cry,
dredged from the bottom of my soul.
"Oh dear lord, no!" I screamed in pain,
"What terrible, horrible joke is this?
All of our journeys were in vain!
To come so close, and then to miss!"
For the beautiful place in the distant land,
where the flat earth met the fair blue dome,
had grown clearer as we got closer and
was revealed now to be our home!
"I thought we had found our heaven on earth!
But it is not so, now that I can see!"
And Mortis thought,"The place of our birth,
seems like the best place for us to be!"
