SNOW WHITE DEER TEARS

For years I looked for a diamond-train

All I got was suitcases full of heartache

My stiff necked body always an excuse

Still, I climbed the critics’ mountain with a butterfly smile

I knocked on God's door

I laid my swimming pool answers before His feet

I pleaded; Give me my angel love

I wore my young arrogant cloak

For seventeen years I had to go into desert-loneliness

I walked on burning sand cloths

Burned my fingers to blisters in the heat of the sun

Fought purple-green hyenas with my sword words

I was the lover du jour on a few Romeo-menus

I caught a denim-train at last

Air castle promises were made

Sarcastic stars were smiling upon me

I touched the sky in my air-balloon

Signed my new name on sick yellow paper

I bathed in bubble bath-happiness

I swam in the freedom-forest

Suddenly there was no more VIP-carpet

I tumbled into the darkest dinosaur dragon mouth

Alone and empty my soul cried

Snow white deer-tears spiralled from my mountain-curve cheeks

Will I ever find my island in the stream of love
