Nefertiti
Nefertiti
When thee shall borne teeth,
I shall smile.
Thee shall walk on all fours,
I will be watching.
Next, thee shall stumble taking your first step,
I will be your shadow.
My princess, I shall put your feet on mine
And we shall Waltz.
I will tie your ribbons.
Darling I shall guard your heart from all your suitors
Then one day I will recognize your knight in shining armour,
His love dazzling in your eyes.
Afterwards I will walk you down the aisle,
And step behind to be your best man.

Acreage
Acreage
Acreage
In a city of echoes
Hold me, I’m drowning
Scream my name for I can’t hear myself
And I haven’t learned how to swim.
Stranded in a cult of images
These souls never come in front
But oh they send mesmerizing memories
And projection of reflections they owe.
If this is madness, then this is serene
I fear how powerful this shall be
Somebody is playing music in the garret
It must be the old piano.
And sip with nymphs, their elemental tea…
