gone in sixty seconds...

a lone hand clapping makes not a sound
it is like an empty thought thrown in the wind
it is like a blunt knife that wounds its wielder
it is like a flame thrown at a mirror

a lone hand clapping looks mighty queer
it is like an artist who is great of cheer
 it is definitely love unseen, unrequited
it is a rusty blade thrust in an open eye

a lone hand clapping is a desperate act
it is a back seen and then thoughts remembered
it is a smile captured and framed in my mind
she is a beauty that will never i define

Gone in 60 Seconds

hate and lies...

he raised a finger to his head
eyes far, ideas percolating
what shall my deed be before bed
what wonders shall i go about corrupting

i don't know, thought he a-mulling
shall i infuse a nation all with lies
maybe there would be a mighty culling
aha! with it i will sprinkle some hate
and then ohoho there will be dreadfull falling!

nonono! thought he with grin!
i have it! said he aloud, flinging wide his sheets
my masterpice, he said, my creme de la creme!
with it, The Almighty then may i beat!

into the Body, he infused fear
a need for vengeance he filtered through
strike back, fight back my pretty pauper
set them all back a fire!

glad his plan done, his servants working
he laid back his head and kissed the wife
tomorrow would be a beautiful, bloody thing
he rejoiced, the snake, he smiled and slept

the devil, the snake, he smiled and slept.
