Take What You Have Gathered


The highway is for gamblers, better use your sense
Take what you have gathered from coincidence
The empty-handed painter from your streets
Is drawing crazy patterns on your sheets
The sky too is folding under you
It's all over now baby blue

It's All Over Now Baby Blue
(Dylan)

Time for Another


                Heat came into the room and settled itself on Vanning. He lit a cigarette. He told himself it was time for another drink. Walking to the window, he told himself to get away from the idea of liquor. The heat was stronger than liquor.

Life Outside Goes On


Advertising signs they con 
You into thinking you're the one
That can do what's never been done
That can win what's never been won
Meanwhile life outside goes on
All around you

It's Allright Ma I'm Only Bleeding
