yorkleaping down the steps, he gasped in; the stale and exciting airs of a NYC apartment hallway enveloped his mind in rapture. a new found love in this new city, at long last. they'd met the day before yesterday and had coffee tonight. passing a tenant on more steps; her room's odor still clung to his blazer like child to parent. though she smoked, she didn't smell bad. no, it wasyork

0. Not Just YetGot nothing to lose but time. Forgot the world and myself in my bed today. Cigarette in my teeth, lungs full of tar. Goddamn, it's a good way to die.0. Not Just Yet
Chip on my shoulder, a bounce in my step. My end is coming, but it's not here yet. Heaven in a bottle, at least my kind. It's not hard to be happy when you're living in your mind.
And as the sun's falling, I know it's not too late. It's all coming together, all you've gotta do is wait. And when you realize it's a wonderful night, Oh, just take it from me --
Light one up, breath it all in -- Oh, and then

Walking out, his wife was sitting in a corner of the hallway He sat next to her, and handed her a pill, just one "Don't you have one?" she asked through sobs He shook his head, and brought a handgun from behind his belt
"Now take it, we don't have much time," he said through tears She kissed him passionately, and obeyed. Standing up, she went into their daughter's room, and lay by her side He sat a


Oh, JenniferI walked about in the mall today, And saw a pleasant, attractive woman in a store.Oh, Jennifer
She worked there all day. I could hear her quaint laughter over the din, and the roar of customers.
I went inside, to be closer. She sized my bare foot, and fitted me in a brand new shoe.
"Those make you glow, sir" Seeing her braces, I filled with glee. I thought to myself "I love you!"
I paid, and left with my wares, But not before taking one of her beautiful hairs.


My Lovely VioletI walked about in the mall today,My Lovely Violet
and saw a humble, quiet woman at a food stand.
She made and stacked pretzels on a tray, and with ethereal hum, made them by hand.
I ordered a snack, to hear her. She put her uniform hat down,
and got my treat.
I took her hat while she turned, And with ease, without sound, made my retreat.
Behind a corner I breathed the scent, And likewise my night was gladly spent.


Delightful DelilahI walked about in the mall today, and saw a ravaging, colorful woman in a barber shop.Delightful Delilah
She tended to the masses without delay, snipping, cutting, having fun, without one stop.
I sat inside, to watch her. She called me up, and cut my hair, I gasped with pleasure.
I went and stood at the counter, and a quaint "For Hire" sign was there -- I felt joy without measure.
I walked into the mall today, And as a barber, I could finally stay.


PacingThe fan blades are still, And so we are too. We go room to room, Never finding what we look for, And still we go room to room.Pacing
Our voices deafen our senses, Lessened to near nothing. We wander our home, Never finding what we're meant for, And still we go room to room.
When we wake in the night It feels like we are still dreaming, So we go room to room, Never waking to what we're meant for. And still we go room to room.
