There’s a werewolf after me
I always hear him howling
I hope like in the movies
a silver bullet will kill him

The Summer Heat
The summer sun is here
heating up my part of the world
heat seeping into my apartment
the whir of my fans spinning

Demolished Hopes
She destroyed the hopes of my heart
like a bomb detonating inside of me
her weapon of mass destruction
a devastating heart-seeking no

Cats and Dogs
People said the turbulent Mr and Mrs Denton
fought nearly every night like cats and dogs
It was no surprise when in the summer of 1977
the wife scratched her husband’s eyes out

Mind Blown by the White Light
At age 27 he saw the White Light
bright like the blazing noonday sun
it blew his mind with expanded consciousness
and he was irrevocably changed forever

Howling Werewolves
He hears werewolves howling
outside his cabin in the woods
but he’s not worried about them
just his sons on a full moon night

Relationship Curse
A relationship with the wrong person
like a curse upon your life
that can be hard to extract yourself from
hopefully before it’s not too late

Nirvana Guppies
The guppies in my aquarium
swim blissfully all day long
perhaps when they swim
they experience a fish nirvana

My Name Is Sparrow
My name is sparrow
although I seem happy and free
many predators are after me
odds are I won’t live a full life
