Pair of socks


--------------------
...

If my soul had fingers i would
ask it to depart and touch you
lightly upon your true, true heart.
And with that touch i would imprint
...

We're here to take your home.
Foreclosure we call it. Makes us
...

Where the earth and sky collide
That's were sea-dreams are found
...

driving through a yesterday land
i chanced upon a yesterday man
...

We are Australian
And in our time we are asked
...

Orange or, green
we can all wear the red
...

Now many a one
Could agree that poor auld SAM gets
...

Atten-shun at ease
atten-shun
...

Overhead an empty sky:
Troubling me, seeking, as I'am
solace: - Nights sky devoid of starlight,
reflective moon in teardropp shape, has waned
...

It's easier to sleep on and another mans wounds.
You can live in legends, die in folklore.
Never seing or feelings the reality of pain,
and bloody death.
...

Footsteps murmuring in tranquil chapels
form echoes of childhood memories.
Those forgotten moments brought forwards
in the sudden rush of incense.
...

there were places i walked
left footprints behind.
some places arrived at no sign
i was ever there.
...

Are we to be refugees
enduring the struggle, and fight
then the headlong flight.
We leave our meagre belongings
...

And the children died.
Our children kept dying.
Then our childrens child
picked up the struggle,
...

Shake hands with my heart
Sit down lets talk awhile
You don't come around as
often was it something i said
...
