"All the Hues
That Fit, We Tint"

Siberia, USA: Today, global warming. Tonight, dark, unless you count the stars. Tomorrow can be reached via time machine. Yesterday, who can remember that far back?

Your Heart with Beauty

Lyrics, music, vocals and keyboarding are all mine. Composed and recorded sometime in the 1990s.

Your Heart with Beauty

I want to break your heart without any pain this time
I want to break your heart with beauty and with love divine
I want the tears to run in rapture till they melt your soul
In the land of milk and honey with a golden bowl
We don't have to know the future -- It will come to us
When we've gone around full circle on the wheel of trust
I want to break your heart with beauty

The embuscade -- the canonade -- the elegiac aubade
The reverie -- the anomie -- the all-pervasive ennui
Like Don Giovanni in irony burning
We've grown weary without ever learning
How to bear the pain of pleasure's sharehold
I want to break your heart into mine
I want to cross the dividing line
Forgive my trespass as I hover here on the threshold
