ze leprechaun

I travelled the world just to see you,
Just to see you standing there.
Looking high and low to find you,
Yet not a tear drop or a care.
Say you still need me,
Though to hold me no one's there,
Standing tall looking strong,
With my shadow trying hard to crawl.

Staring into the distance,
Thoughts running in the wind,
Like a stag across the highway,
Eyes glaring deeper,
Penetrating stances,
Trying hard to finally rest.
Lights piercing, brighter,
Putting strangers to the test.

None for the sinister danger,
None for the time with no trace.
The lion and the lamb tonight,
Enjoy a supper after grace.
But amidst it all,
I travelled so far,
So far to see you,
How could I miss such a beautiful view?

I travelled the world to find you where you'd be,
To find you waiting for me,
But when I get there it's lonely,
No one in sight, for miles on end no one to see.
Treasure chests come easy,
But life gets hard to find.
To put the puzzle together,
Running in circles around my mind.

And with every breath of fresh air,
The dream get real and alive.
But you further away than before,
While I grab at the clouds,
Trying hard to hold on,
To keep them near,
To keep you here,
To make you stay a glance at a time.

You say it's not to late,
Yet you still drift away.
Tufts of grass glistening,
With breeze blowing through my hair.
I stand perched up upon a rock,
Rainbows in the sky,
Gold coins crowdin' 'neath about the ground.
Dandies and daffodils, as ne'er seen before.

Everywhere I look is beautiful,
The world lies at my feet.
But spring comes but once a year,
And leaves without a trace.
All I want,
Within hand's reach...
Except that,
What I want to keep.

ze uncanny laughter - III

I stare at the ceiling,
Darkness all abound.
The silence is unnerving,
And you are not to be found.

I know I should be stronger,
I wish I could wish this all away,
But it never gets over,
There is only one way...

And this I lack the courage to explore,
To go forth and fall back from trying harder once more.
And the doors open wider to the beyond
With the cracks growing deeper and creeping upon.

I wish that you knew me,
That you knew me like I know you,
That you'd be here to say goodbye,
You hear me call, one last time.

Each step I take grows weary,
My strength gets drawn away.
They despise it and curse,
But they don't know that I hope to be back someday.

ze uncanny laughter - II

I asked you to wait a while,
I need you to hold my hand.
The lover and the dance,
As they sway through this sad romance.

I need you to linger,
As I reach to keep you close,
I can do this alone I know,
But I need you by my side.

Soon I shall learn,
Now to grow, to face the open fields afore.
But in the distance, dark clouds draw nearer,
Seems like it's time to face the swelling tide.

Please hold me now,
Please stay a while.
I tried to breeze through this,
But I need you by my side.

The night is long and dreary,
And I have yet to saddle up,
I am bruised and beaten,
I may not make it through this ride.

So stay with me now,
Watch me close my eyes.
I pray we meet again, I pray you wait a while,
As I fade into this surreal séance.

ze uncanny laughter - I

I never asked for this
But I knew it was coming.
Could have run a mile,
Yet always be running.
Glancing over my shoulder,
As each day got older,
Buying time by the minute,
Trying hard to find anything in it.

Staying still I keep moving,
Into depths unsheathing.
Wailing in the distances
And shadows drawing near.
I stand alone in the abyss,
With nothingness for company,
Loneliness entrenches.
My heart sinks lower and vanishes.

Then I hit a stone,
Running through an open gate.
Surrounded, entrapped,
I stumble on further, prostrate before my fate.
And I look around besides me,
The same shallow spaces engulf.
But there's a certain sense of peacefulness,
A narrow smile and sign of love.

Tired, yet rested,
I bow before thee now.
All this distance in vain,
I succumb, to this pain.

ze story teller

So the story goes on down,
The less travelled road...
It's a variation on,
The one I was told.
And although it's not the same,
It's awful close....

In an ordinary fairy tale land,
There's a promise of a perfect happy end.
And I imagine having just short of that,
Is better than nothing...

So you'll be mine,
Forever and almost always...
And I'll be fine,
Just love me when you can...
And I'll wait patiently,
I'll wake up every day
Just hoping that you still care.

In the corner of my mind I know too well,
Oh that surely even I deserve the best...
But instead of leaving
I just put the issue to bed,
And outta my head...

Oh and just when I believe,
You've changed for good,
Well you go and prove me wrong,
Just like I knew you would...
When I run out of second chances,
You give me that look,
And you're off the hook!

Because you're mine,
Forever and almost always...
And I'm fine,
Just love me when you can...
And I'll wait patiently,
I'll wake up every day
Just hoping that you still care.

Oh, what am I still doing here?
Oh, it's all becoming so clear.

You'll be mine,
Forever and almost always...
It ain't right to just love me when you can...
Oh I won't wait patiently,
Or wake up everyday
Just hoping that you'll still care.

Ps. Such coincidences!

ze animales

I just realized, we pride ourselves on being 'social' animals but in fact that is the saddest part of our lives. It is the actual barrier to anything we ever thought of. Recognition, self esteem, social acceptance, even our most sought after dreams and ambitions, all a curse because we are social. Everything, every single thing we ever have done and ever will do will be judged by at least one other person. And if what we do is in secret, we will judge ourselves for all those people who don't have the privilege of a VIP seat.

Which also explains why we suck at keeping secrets, why we like to appear smart and well liked with a lot of friends, or even find pleasure in being called a geek. Even the lone scientist in Antarctica researching footprints of penguins, the sceptics optimistic about crop circles, mermaids and aliens, and the strongly opinionated feminists, Marxists and Zoroastrians, all developed ideas so that somebody would love them!

And you thought you had your life under control...
