It’s summer time at the funeral
You’re so divine, supernatural
I see you there, but you don’t see me
I keep hoping that we're meant to be.
We went crash, boom, bam
I thought you knew...
We went crash, boom, bam
I thought you knew, how to love
Someone like me.
It's autumn now at the carnival
I follow you there instinctual
The lemonade stings your lips
As I stare at your growing hips.
We went crash, boom, bam
I thought you knew...
We went crash, boom, bam
I thought you knew, how to love,
Someone like me,
Border-line, serenity.
It is wintertime at the festival
Ice sculptured rows of denial
You’re on the pond, with your new Beau
So in love, that I turn and go.
I go crash, boom, bam
I thought you knew
Then I grew a bit wiser,
Because of you.
It is spring at last in the hospital
They let me paint all day, habitual
I’m better now, and so high above
Those Doctors cut out all my love.
We went crash, boom, bam
I thought you knew...
We went crash, boom, bam
I thought you knew, how to love
Someone like me,
Border-line, serenity.

It's rather difficult to read these lyrics and not say it's great as far as creativity. I imagine I'll come back and catch the lyrics (played) at some point, but for now I can say the images certainly catch one's eyes and I think the chorus in this with just reading will stick with whomever has found this to enjoy in either form.
You've always put out some of the most creative and interesting writing. This certainly is no different.

I love this one!

i went and listened, so dang creative, brilliant in fact...the way you carry this energy from written word to song lyric - i can see why so many others like it so much as well. Anne Sexton really was one of those writers who really could captivate. Loved this poem...clappies to prove it.
blessings and best wishes,

Hi again! How are you? I don't really see you around much anymore. Does that mean you're doing exciting things?
I remember reading this lyric from you before and I've listened to it. I listened to it again just the other day. I really like it. It's a little bit crazy and a little bit sad. Your lyrics are a little different on that link page too. I know you said that you don't necessary write about yourself so I'll just say that the person in this lyric really made me feel sad for him. Like he loved this person but he never really knew how to show her how he felt and finally she just went away and loved someone else who could show her. So it's not like it's really anyone's fault but that it was just sad how they couldn't see each other for the clouds, you know? It's a good song though and I wanted to tell you that. Also I hope you'll post something soon. I miss your writing.

I like it. The production is really good, voice is dreamy and crazed. Same for the music. I'm not crazy about the chorus, "crash, boom, bam" it just seems so teeny-boppery and out of place with the rest of the lyrics - but what the hell do I know anyway? I love these lines, "The lemonade stings your lips
As I stare at your growing hips."

:)
great song, what more to say. -
Great song. -
This is an awesome sweet wonderful write! You rock my freaking socks off!!! You rock, even though I don't know you this poem lets me see a part of you and I liove it. Keep on writing! You totally rock!

Dark, sad and slightly frightening. Sadly, at my worst, I've been as disillusioned.
Technically, I had to keep reminding myself that this was a song, which is a rarity.
One of these days I'll get drunk and disorderly enough to buy gangbox.
Thanks much! -
-
Hah thats mad funny
-
Very nice lyrics, speciallly with the onomotapoeia part of crash and boom and bam. Thank you very much for sharing this!
-
It's very interesting to read this, I read the title and was like ...hm, but then you swayed me with your words.
I don't really know what else to say. My computer is refusing to co-operate so I cannot listen as I read, but I'm sure it's wonderful.
Lots of love
Kelly. -
and?
-
I really loved this! Although I never heard the song I could almost hear music in my head because it was so lyrical. Great job, I enjoyed reading this!
Love, Black-Moon -
hey, horus..I did not know you were this artistic.. but I am finding out by leaps and bounds, thanks for sharing this unusual song/poem with us, I will wonder over to your site and investigate futher..Linda
-
I think this is a very interesting poem. Personally, I loved it. I love the way you wrapped everything up with borderline-serenity.

maybe, if you put that hamster operated bong down, and that copy of ultra jugs magazine you could figure it out. Pretend it's a dildo you want to turn into a pipe.

cant really comment on this
ive got dsl - but im running a mac and it wont play

Well, in my --not so expert oppinion-- this is a great poem. You use some familiar phrases, but it is twisted a bit so as not to be same ole same ole. It rings a little odd to the ear, but that is a good thing. It makes the senses pay attention. Glad I stopped by for a read
-
most definatly a interesting.
-
Well I must say this is totally different but a good write. Your imagination is out there I must say but this is good. Keep up the great write.

neat-o-ness
Its odd.
Good though.
I like it.
-
Very Good
Very good, you are very talented, keep up the great work
-
The picture really has nothing to do with the poem, the poem's actually about Ann sexton and a crush I had on hera s a young man. the picture goes more with the song and the band actually, so you're right they have nothing in common, but I get off on doing that.
-
Interesting photo that goes with this write. Is this a sci fi write, or a fantasy or such? Without the photo I would get a completely different impression of the piece.
-
this third and final installment is to let you know that your poetry did quite a bit of talking. (it was mute)
-
anne sexton, was indeed a good poet. but you wouldn't say that her poetry was good, because that would make you pompus. i didn't say i was a great poet, but you seem to think an awful lot of your poetry, since you try to put music to it. what kinda of freakin drugs do you use anyway? rerecord when sober sometime.
-
that's because it's a song, maybe if you had DSL
and money for some speakers on that antique you
call a computer, you'd have been able to figure that
out by clicking and listening, but I can understand how your
dial up modem and sharing one computer
to a trailer of twenty red necks could get frustrating.

dude. this is so cliche. the rhymes are so predictable, i can't believe no one's entered one of your poems into my contest.
-
i liked this too much.would have listen to this one of these days.pretty interesting going through the archives of your mind.am reading sexton right now.a collection of her poetry.
you captured her,i think.a bit of her,at least.she is not easy to get.borderline serenity.loved that to death. -
Very good.
It's really good, flowed, and organized. It's one hell of a piece. And the idea of listening while reading well, just great. Congrats... -
i have often suspected you have a borderline personality disorder
this is a fantasmagorically good poem -
Hey. Nice write, i like the flow of things, it doesnt seem like a forced poem. nice emotions reflected through it. Good luck, well done and thanks for entering my contest.

yep its great borderline personality springs to mind but then i am full of sherry i just reccomended someone to read you cos they were writing loads of stuff in rhyme and it sounded terrible and comical. your stuff is always to be taken seriously.great song lyrics wish i could hear it the last time i followed one of your links i ended up looking at a lot of poo coming out of someones bottom
-
borderline serenity is a place where I am often found, therefore I am pleased with this piece
-
nice
-
w00t! i love it sooo much. it's beautiful. good louck in the contest. i so love this. this is a cheesy comment but i have nothing to say except for it's awesome. take care.
~Reesa -
excellent
This creates an image that many go through, each with a diferent outcome.
It is hard for someone to love another, and very few can do this honestly.
Nicely spoken.
I'm not sure of the song, but seems to have a sorted view of this subject.
Well done and good luck! -
Very nice, but you haven't said anything in your author comments about the poem .. >.> <.< Am I supposed to guess? Its a great poem, and I can see it must be a pretty good song too from the coments above. Thanks for entering and take care. Good luck in the contest too.

Was this one of your songs on your website? Like it as a poem, but think I've heard it before. Sounds like a song, anyway.
-
Ok sweetie i heard this on your web page thingy and it's seriously like one of my favorite songs...the perfect voice and music everything...great words and everything i really loved it...i love your music jsut as much as your art and your poetry....fuckin talented as hell.
-
Good Stuff
Suh, this is, without a doubt, winging forth on unfettered wings of holy hope, the true voice of love. Why, oh why do I think of "Dear Mrs. Robinson" everytime I see this? I really wish you and Paul hadn't broken up such a happy trio all for the sake of Art.
This is truly wery wery good in a weally weally happy way (well, it ends in a happy way and Algernon got flowers and we had a big birthday cake and she couldn't make it because she really didn't know.)
I like this. Really.
