I - Untitled (thanks to @therealamber + @blaineparker)
Go and tell
the ocean
it's tomorrow
Tonight
I mean to mount
the empty sky
And if you
do not accept
my invitation
Just wave to me
as I go
sailing by
II - Insurrection (someone told me recently to write from the heart. This is about as close as I could get. The mind said little, except to rearrange an item or two as is its prerogative.)
Love is checking her
reflection in the mirror
Love is quickly slipping
on her shoes
Love is coming on
like an insurrection
Everybody's going
to hear the news
Love is always quiet
on Sunday mornings
Love is shivering
at the thought of snow
Loving is coming to give
you back your conscience
And all the love you
dreamed of long ago
Love is not content
with just a handshake
Love is not satisfied
with an embrace
Love will not be penciled
in for meetings
It is love that will dictate
the time and place
Love is going to beat
market projections
Love will take the mike
and have its say
Everybody's going
to get the message
Love is not the kind
who will delay
Love is not about
to take your orders
There are no operators
standing by
It will not negotiate
or bargain
Love is coming
and it will not be denied
Love is going to be
precise and sudden
Love is going to be
intense and true
You'd better get
your affairs in order
Love's coming now
and it's coming for you
Mark,
