Overlander Park
In ordinary dark
I was saved by Man
Introduced me to his helpful staff
I forget this, nearly made me laugh
“You should chill inside this photograph.”
No sooner had I heard
His prepossessing word
I was handed keys
“Take my Audi, there’s a shortcut there
Blast the AC, listen: I don’t care
Sixty-six, one-forty-six Belair.”
“The 65¢ dinner’s a song of the past,”
It read over the mantle at the head of the room.
There was once a great poet over the open vast
Expanse of aqua blue who
Couldn’t resist its sweet call
He said “I’m running for
Zone 8 Solicitor.”
I said, “Great for you.”
He steered me toward the panoramic view.
“You see The City, Michael, I see you.”
Then he turned and motioned “Send him through.”
“The 65¢ dinner’s a song of the past,”
He said over the quiet din of the signing of forms
Then he passed me off to an underling half my age
I knew – no matter what I
Couldn’t resist the sweet call

Tonight, It's Over

It's obvious, part of the sound's
Just interference
I won't hear fanciful talk
Of a dying Cosmonaut
Now close your eyes
Concentrate on my voice, please
We can get you out
Here's the code: it's always
Overcast and grey
Then I go: always been that way
You say: by design
Tonight, it's over
We'll rip out all the wires!
They'll never know your away
It's natural:
Part of your pain's
From holding out for so long
Rather than taking a break
You've been in non-stop motion
But so is everyday
All of it fast and unfriendly
We can get you out
Here's the code: it's always
Overcast and grey
Then I go: always been that way
You say: by design
