When the ink dries, we'll have another bastard's peace.

Tidal Wind

Let me walk with my emotions,
let me do the dance of life.
We are skin-cell dust in oceans,
balanced on a diver's knife.

You can never be too certain,
'cause of what can you be sure?
It's just air behind the curtain,
when life hooks you on a lure.

So I'll bob with my emotions,
and I'll kick the dance of life,
and I'll drink the strongest potions
when I balance love and strife.

It's not lessons you'll need teaching,
should you strive to walk the rift.
Leave to whales the art of beaching,
when you're swimming all adrift.

Kid, just tread with your emotions,
dip and loop the dance of life;
when out snorkeling, with notions
you will find the corals rife.

If there's thoughts down in your belly,
cough 'em up, they're enemies.
Hold 'em long, they sting like jellies;
oh you'll see, anemone.
