Weeping Waters I listen to the waters weep And cannot close my eyes to sleep I float upon a tar of night With only stars to give me light The rhyming lap, of slapping slap Sets the sound to form a trap And cloaks me with a mental veil Without a chance of setting bail Held within the hammocks sway I watch the shadows melt away Feel hot moisture sweat my skin Running rivulets of sin Stirring anguish mounting toll Setting fire to my soul Sending waves amok of doom Drowning me in muck of gloom I pray the wind to change the stir And let my ears and eyes to blur. Change the rhythm of the core Stop the rubbing of the raw The night has caught me in its bend A little more will be my end. [This message has been edited by Seymour Tabin (05-30-2004 12:19 PM).] |

Sleepless night? The cure for that is simple! Just watch a political debate.  |

Whenever you have another sleepless night in Seattle ~ oops! I got the wrong city! Oh well, wherever you may be, just call me on cloud 9 in seventh heaven at 555-POTIONS and I will whip you up something that will put the LA back in your LaLa Land!
