Men look at queens of the past for their clues trying to see where the problem lies in these old women's shoes Many men could have said / off with the ladies head! what shall I do with her ? maybe my wife should burn … Queen Christina, oh Queen Christina how thankful am I, that I live my life in 2009 … I look to the past and know my sorry ass would have tried not to fight but my head would have ended up upon a pike – for all to see matrimonial expressions of horror at justice gone so awry! Queen Christina, oh Queen Christina how thankful am I, that I live my life in 2009 … If now were then would you've pulled me off of the fire … then ..? - instead of now asking me for advice Queen Christina, Queen Christina oh queen ...

It's pouring outside / I've got it bad as the weather It's all damp inside my mind / I don't have it together But some people like to live like this Cuz the rain makes the waterfalls into rainbows around And I laugh and make appropriate sounds Cuz you can't hear what I've been dreaming about … I hold tight against myself / like a human umbrella Yes sir … the shoe fits, but I ain't no … Cinderella I'm just filling up holes in the street with the pools overflowing I'm late to the dance And my roots are showing There's water everywhere Are you gonna drink it? Or will you just let it trickle down politely when we could just throw down in the rain -like we mean it? The clouds move secretly, faster - I'm poised for disaster wondering illegal things I'm thinking about all the shining realities And the rain makes a pretty parade I see you, shove up my glasses / double-check the subtleties I made and they're much too subtle … I'm afraid You know it's not quite like all that But I could drink you down right now I guess this is kinda hard for you to understand ..I guess the weatherman could declare me legally mad There's water everywhere Are we gonna drink it? Gulp it down like we mean it ... I don't believe you don't see this clearly! We're steaming- and we could throw down like we mean it in the rain You can look for the root of my crimes / in my past life Put on galoshes, wade through my present time Trip right to the flip-side then slip down to your never-mind This is not about you It's about what I go through when you and all you&me too's come through my my stormy parade …

My week has not been fine There's no rules for how to write my life Stick to facts go back to practice still all this distraction lies in wait to glaze me make me crazy although no mistakes are made so who's to say? It's morning… It's nighttime a cup of do-or-die dash of hello-goodbye a tablespoon of why shouldn't I?? As for him and I -we're fine and I think we might be tied up tight enough … to get by And you complain that what I'm hiding under all this icing wasn't advertised … well why .. shouldn't I add the spice a cup of do or die dash of hello goodbye well why not why, why shouldn't I? Why, shouldn't I add some spice a tablespoon of hello/goodbye just tell me why write a recipe to make something from this thing Why shouldn't I? Mixed up like marmalade inside And I try to hide myself in plain sight … it's sticky in my mind complications clinging singing circles close my eyes It stays in my brain my duality

They tied our hands together that time that we met It was maybe a little intense for our first date And I don't have a homeland now No one's really from anywhere I s'pose I've heard the rumors but I'm lying here undressed My love, you'll be alright You've reached a place of safety Be careful, good night don't look behind your fears For I have drawn a curtain right over the darkness Here, come claim your home don't look for hidden halls In the morning I'm not shy because you're mine And you say these things - they're all for me And I don't put no stock in all the suspicious storytellings when my mind is shocked by love Then you tell me not to walk on down the hall For anything, (for anything) For anything... My love I thought I gave you all that you wanted... So now we'll go away into the darkness And you know what curiosity did for that cat They tied our hands together, the *last* time we met (it was almost too easy, it was almost too tragic) You say that I have all of your resources, and your love (I waited for the inevitable end of the line) Only one thing that I asked (you gave me the keys) You know what curiosity did for the cat My beautiful girl (to everything, to everything -) (How can a man who can touch me like you do...) I already know you will ignore my requests (...be so violent and sad, with no regret … ) And now the key will never wipe clean

about

I am addicted to songwriting competitions. This is my hallway, filled with trash. There's probably tacos, and other takeout in there. This is what has become of me. This is what can happen to you. I'll upload what I've done all year for the past year and four5ths or so. There's a LOT.
