Desire On Trial

Ladies and gentlemen
This court is in session
The defendant, Desire,
Stands accused of obsession
Caught in the act
Of willful expression,
Showed not one sign
Of restraint or suppression
Even showing a willingness
To resort to aggression
With no signs of remorse
And sans a confession
So given the severity
Of the transgression
This court is unable
To make a concession
The evidence is clear
Let there be no question
The defendant is guilty
Of a total lack of discretion
And is sentenced to a major
Spiritual regression
With lifetimes and lifetimes
Of mental impressions
Fraught with hardship
Pain and depression
And furthermore
This court is now in recession

In A Mist

by Me

Lost in a fog caught in a mist
Where's the passion where's the bliss
The infatuation I once knew
Was it just a door that I walked through

Deep in the fire of defiant youth
I swear by God I knew the truth
With all the changes time does bring
Now I don't know a goddamn thing

My heart keeps calling out your name
In hope to kindle this dull flame
That used to light my way so clear
When I could feel your heart so near

I've seen the carnival colored lights
In the Garden of Earthly Delights
I bought the barker's snake oil tea
But you're the only remedy

So I wait in this lonely place
For a single drop of your sweet grace
And I will as long as you insist
Remain here wandering in a mist
