mud and bone

Some days I'm made
Of mud and bone
Head hung low
On a chickenwire throne
And there's ash
And there's smoke
And I know I'm not alone
But some days

That's not how it feels

I am connected

I am connected
To you
To him
To all of you

If I stop
Close my eyes
and wait
I can feel you all

Image Hosted by ImageShack.usIt's spinning

What you're doing
Where you're going
I touch you
A thousand miles away

Image Hosted by ImageShack.usSo fast.

Do you love me?

Do you love me?
The shape of my laugh
The spark in my eye
Do you listen for my voice
In a crowd?

Do you hear my name
And wonder where I am?
Standing in a line
Or watching infomercials
on television?

Do you dream of me
In the dead of night?
And if you do
Do you wake up
Screaming?



A quality of ignorance,
Self-deception may be
Necessary to the poet's survival


-Jim Morrison
