Under a mossy stone
Dreams are buried.

On the terrace of desire
Fall of reverie.

In the calm river Avon,
Wants to be a tern.

The Nordic cord
Strong as freedom’s call
Forgotten lullaby

Floor managers, wear logos
But pay is lousy.

Hot liquid fell on his head
An Olympic torch

Selling flowers to lovers
Lives on rejections

Breathless, ravenous sex
Delightful madness

Your breathing
Whispering as a palm tree
Kissed by the breeze
