In the mud, in the maze of my imagination.
Train

The blood-rosy water
That washed white your slaughter
Mingles quite nicely with your brand of pain.
You've tied yourself to the tracks,
Counted on my coming back,
Coming back here to hear you
And untie you again.
So go on and blame me,
Swing that lead-limp to maim me,
You always looked good in the thorns and the red,
Curse me for your slips,
With a sneer on your lips
Hold those "I love you"s like a gun to my head.
Scream at me in the rain
To jump when you ring your pain,

But I think that I'll leave you
to deal with your train.

"Cheat"

The shadows hold the world in place,
Without the sunlight of your face
And pull the drapes to a modest close
To hide the vase of drooping roses
That I kept after you left.
Not for a smile or pretty face,
For the coldest hand, the darkest place,
For the quietest girl, the deepest sleep,
My clumsy living-love cannot compete.
With her unforgiving kiss.
My kingdom for your eyes,
My soul for a goodbye.
All my riches gone to rust,
I was not ready for the dusk
