To see the London Bridge
and to think of you
To sit and watch an opera performance
and dance for you in my thoughts
...

Dear brother, thank you for your last message.

Sadly I tell you brother,
my mind is not well
...

I adored you briefly

Your eyes reflect all the beauty
that this world has to offer
...

The rain in their faces
The wind in their hair
upon such a morning
a feeling of despair
...

Father, dare I say,
I did not know true beauty until this day
when a little woman
bowed down to pray
...

I love to love you love;
and I love to call you love;
They say it's not wise; but it doesn't need to be smart
for you have love written on your forehead
...

a branch with 13 little branches
got ran over today by a bus
but the news never came
Noone to hear and start a fuss
...

The whisteling wind; the mother trees dancing until stripped of their leaves and left naked to welcome the winter.
Rabbits that dropped from the sky; still continue to fall on my roof. I am being watched with hidden cameras, as I hide beneath my bed; away from them and the light of the cross.
Soviet birds that crawl the dust are aiming for my white balloon.
Multiplied satellites made out of human flesh are sent out to stalk me in my alien tracks.
...

My lev is the target of arrows;
I see your smile in the leaves of the autumn
and hear about it from the sparrows
...

The hurting bird that fell
has little words to tell
and so it continues to fall
through the pain of the first
...

My lips were thirsty and my heart so sad
I clintched to the ceiling; the earth growing mad
My mind suffered from headaches night and day
I avoided them pills and tried my best to just lay
...

He thinks he can reach cause he has her number and mail...
but he's so far from her he can't even tell
He is doing things that he shouldn't be doing
and he should just leave her alone
...

We'd be together- we'd be apart
until the angels would gather- the fools would become smart

and we'd be loving, and we'd be shoving
...

It's unpersonal and its all in your head,
from the moment that you wake up
to the second you are dead- in her eyes
you can reach the skies
...

(translated from Hebrew)

Iema, my hair now long
It falls on my eyes like the old avocado tree
...

I just saw you walking to me
a cup of tee and a cookie in your hand
I turned and asked the candles
If I should say, if to speak to you I may
...

The reason the stars travel in their milk ways
The reason why brave men are cowards and cowards are so brave
A sunflower of van Gogh’s craft; the only reason he ever laughed
You are a picture that's worth a million times a trillion words
...

There in the sun,
her shadow stretched out against the pavement
her lips stood thirsty
her cheeks reddened
...

I started to love you the other day
your smile fell on me like a rainbow
so much that when it became dark I lit in its colours
I bought a plant and a dozen of hearts
...

People hold onto
promises; of health; joy
gold; love; enternity; just
...
