Ticky tacky talk
They sneak and stalk
And lie and mock
And put you in a box
They take you down
And break you down
They're never leaving
This old town
Avoid abusers and accusers
Losers gonna loser
I'm not a beggar
I'm a chooser
They take you down
And break you down
They're never leaving
This old town
They'll never let you be
But they can't shackle me
They're just a memory
I'm happy flying free
They take you down
And break you down
They're never leaving
This old town

Of her choice virtues only gods should speak,
Or English poets who grew up on Greek
-Theodore Roethke
What is beauty?
What is love?
What is color?
What is art?
What is laughter?
What is sunshine?
What is rustling
In my heart?
What is real?
What is romance?
What is magic?
What is true?
What are raindrops?
What are roses?
What are puppies?
What are you?
What is light?
What is time?
What is space?
What's a star?
What makes
The heavens sing
Everywhere
You are?
by Richard W. Bray

I like rainy days and Ibsen plays and lonesome lullabies
Long walks and funny talks and folks that don't tell lies
I like hound dogs and yule logs and films that make me cry
Crescent moons and show tunes and monarch butterflies
I like sunsets and Mookie Betts and Rome before the fall
Short naps and ginger snaps and pickup basketball
I like hay bales and mountain trails and comfy old shoes
Warm smiles and sundials and women just like you
I got nothing planned
So take my hand
And let's talk about you
Maybe, you and me
Can find something to do

Happy and laffy
And healthy and whole
Vibrant and lovely
In body and soul
Jump on my shoulders
I'll lift up your world
The best of creation
A kindhearted girl
I'll be your servant
I'll be your clown
Don't ever stop laughing
Don't ever get down
Jump on my shoulders
I'll lift up your world
The best of creation
A kindhearted girl
Horrors and hopeless
Life gets so cold
Warm up my world
With a hand I can hold
Jump on my shoulders
I'll lift up your world
The best of creation
A kindhearted girl

The good thing was I knew
I wasn't good enough for you
As your love for me grew
There was nothing left to do
I crawled away from your skirt
My digression was overt
Digging deeper in the dirt
I could never stop your hurt
The good thing was I knew
I could never love you true
I didn't have the will to stop
Until our love was on top
Now I'm a silly stupid fool
And my carelessness was cruel
The good thing was I knew
I wasn't good enough for you
