happy sad masks
(lyrics ellen mizell (©2001)
a female saint, hands decorously folded
contemplates her lowly position
at the bottom, her robe crinkles
in art deco folds
a bird is diving at her halo
she symbolizes women thru the ages
happy sad masks, cd headphones
car is hot hot hot
an eggmatic series, of windows
reveal stylized souls
a hep and cool talking head makes urbane comments
everyone was impressed by what he had to say
until they realized the top of his head was missing
a five cent stamp from a foreign country
looks beautiful, but the flower is a spy
happy sad masks, music soundtrack
opera loves songs pop
cd headphones, eggmatic windows
reveal stylized souls
happy sad masks, cool heads talking
flower spy device
windows spaceship, bird is diving, deco symbol eyes
on the next side the boston tea party
is immortalized on a canceled stamp
one window looks out over a still like
the next, which is half gone
a sad black blob
a child’s depiction of a tree, or a spaceship threatening the planet earth
a map of a demented interstate exchange leads no where
green dot hold down a mysterious seal
with the corners of missing windows
happy sad masks, music soundtrack, drama greek masks fly
love songs headphone foreign windows, five cent flower spy
around the corner a strange creature screams at an israeli stamp where birds fly straight
at greek drama masks a sad face that stares into front porch window greens
a colorful world for a stamp from siam, a happy sunflower barcode dreams
happy sad masks cd headphone
car is hot hot hot
opera love songs pop music soundtrack
eggmatic series soul
windows spaceship female saint hand bird is diving low
happy sad masks soundtrack headphones love song opera soul

Gather
lyrics by Ken Clinger ©2003
gather in their light
candles form in avenues
wait for each new hour to toll
daydreams as clustered jewels
sweet emotions flow
windows share the morning breeze
floral secret shapes unfold
their truth our distant fantasies
blossoms and buds and stars appear
from early morning spring
mystical hues and legends stir
their memories make us sing
gardens newly green
melodies from far away
whispers from our childhood dreams
each moment is a holiday
recognizing daily paths
lead to our inner passageway
mystical hues and legends stir
our memories from the night
rediscovered song
rising in the candlelight
present to the future
endless flight

The Owl & The Pussycat
by Edward Lear (Public Domain)
the owl and the pussycat went to sea
in a beautiful pea green boat.
they took some honey, and plenty of money,
wrapped up in a five-pound note
the owl looked up to the stars above,
and sang to a small guitar,
o lovely pussy, oh pussy my love
what a beautiful pussy you are
you are you are
what a beautiful pussy you are
pussy said to the owl, you elegant fowl
how charmingly sweet you sing
o let us be married, too long have we tarried
but what shall we do for a ring?
they sailed away, for a year and a day
to the land where the bong-tree grows
and there in a wood a piggy-wig stood
with a ring at the end of his nose
his nose, his nose
with a ring at the end of his nose.
dear pig are you willing to sell for one shilling
your ring? said the piggy, i will
so they took it away, and were married next day
by the turkey who lives on the hill.
they dined on mince, and slices of quince,
which they ate with a runcible spoon
and hand in hand, on the edge of the sand
they danced by the light of the moon,
the moon , the moon
they danced by the light of the moon.

Moonlight Reflection
(©2002 Ken Clinger)
looking deep inside moonlight reflection
opening to places secrets hide
creatures turn to ponder imperfections
visitors might cast the scales aside
subtle change of mood
vagueness becomes clear
realized sincerity the guide
(oboe)
sound becomes a means of transportation
opening the gates to worlds inside
high into the air floating easily
joining being living there sunlight entities
with a gentle wish
entering into a thought
become anything you want to be
internally
light within the sound giving direction
hinting at return with new insight
facing hardened ways with new affection
outer edges bathes in inner light
subtle change of mood new direction clear
future becomes present taking flight

Bovine
lyrics by john m. bennett ©2000
clastic knife sandwich, dome sinks elastic
bowing toward bowl splash your clouding
brow, gate, itchy feet always now
done it, it’s melting, hock bun
ligature yr neck, can’t swallow signature
crawled across chest, yr midget sprawled
loosely grinning, like a sack toothy
marbles, clack teeth, sing in harbor
dump, pages of munition cracked lumps
it craves it nostrils, it sits
twirling in phonewire, your fly pearled
walks across bed, legs like caulk
walks morphs tactile, watch band talks
twirling at fridge, yr frenchfry curling
it wore, stalking sez dit dit
dump magic strongly, spreads on stump
marbles, sunk in poo, index garbled loosely
slathered with recision, lopped inclusive
crawled, dungless toward the soaking wall
ligature and knife, your dancing forfeiture
done or sausage, never seen lung
brow slapping dimwits, sleep beside plow
bowing, towards blank abyss long cow
claustic chewing roll, your laundry placid

mystic solar trip
lyrics by ken clinger (©2003)
ride a mystic solar ship
past the lunar fields
free as a breeze smiling
glide into a rainbow trip
last to reach trans-spectral destination
time with new trajectory
past to future sealed key
fantasies guiding
prime instinct we all agree
vast connection vision
unison sublime
dream within a butterfly
over color fields
drift past the trees rising
gleaming waters amplify
floral patterns calling
sense enthralling scenes
drift between the gentle brows
thru a sonic spectrum recollection
now the tension fades away
inner hideaway leads
to a world sharing
life beyond all fantasy
life as endless interlude
we oversee
culminating rainbow trip
final color yields smile
as a breeze rising
guide our mystic solar ship
into realms of wonder
welcomed open eyed.

Little Red Riding Hood

Little Red Riding Hood
Little Red, Little Red Riding Hood is gone
no one can, no one knows where to find her
leaving us in the lurch, we need her
we're going out of bounds, we're losing track of time
Little Red Riding Hood
In the woods of space and time
matter, energy, go with her
returning to their prime
Little Red, Little Red Riding Hood is gone
She left, she said the wolf had been reborn
another plane, out of touch
from senses trained in planetary ways
Little Red Riding Hood
shifting thru space and time
searching for the alien feel
of subtle twisted rhyme
Little Red, Little Red Riding Hood is gone
The hunter's dead, there's no one here to save us
out gravity shifts, short circuits for thoughts
no basket of goodies can be of help here
Little Red Riding Hood
enters a space and time
alien feel of wolfish touch
a tingle in the spine
Little Red, Little Red Riding Hood is gone
The sky grows dark, and colored lights are flashing
memory turns to Granny's face
so long dead, a sight from stable times
Little Red Riding Hood
throws a thought, and makes a sign
Wolfish doom, and rising tides
forms that fit a new design
Little Red, Little Red Riding Hood is gone
the ground it shakes and cracks and opens wide
Phantom friends turned inside out
Granny & the hunter flying by
Little Red, Little Red Riding Hood is gone
voices in our heads are getting louder
giving plans for shifting thoughts
altering the meanings of our time
Little Red Riding Hood
nose grows long, in form lupine
teeth turning big and sharp
genus now canine
Little Red, Little Red Riding Hood is gone
Granny and the hunter now combine
a ghostly twist, now obvious
a way to see things way before their time
Little Red Riding Hood
plans and plans to undermine
a shift in fate, a downward pull
infiltrates the other side
Little Red Riding Hood
dark friendship intertwines
a race of wolves and little girl
subtly shifting group lifelines
Little Red, Little Red Riding Hood is gone
we enter into plans of reconstruction
our former ways, and passive days
behind us now, we see the step ahead
Little Red Riding Hood
plays on greed and buys the time
wolf dissent ions in the ranks
leaders disagree on crime
Little Red, Little Red Riding Hood is gone
the void she left is full, and we are waiting
for winds to tell us of the fate
of wolfish doom once destined to be ours
Little Red Riding Hood
withdraws from the battle line
wolves fighting civil wars
their future chains are realigned
Little Red, Little Red Riding Hood is gone
the winds they speak of eminent return
in wolfish form, subverted doom
a presence now sustaining space and time
Little Red Riding Hood
shifting thru space and time
searching for the new ideal
updated and refined
