Keep on chipping
Right away at my heart
Because you touched it
Right from the start
If you were to leave me
And then
We ere to part
It would really tear me apart
Don’t stop now,
Darling you’re getting to me
Don’t quit now
That you’re ahead
Don’t stop now
You’ve made an impression on me
Now there’s no getting you out of my head.
Keep on tearing
All my defences down
Because I feel that
They’re all going to fall
Keep on keeping up with
All of your charms
Because I feel
I’m going to give you my all
Don’t stop now,
You lit such a fire in me
Don’t quit now
Because that would be cruel
Don’t stop now
Darling, don’t tire of me
I’d feel such a fool and so confused
You’re the one
I have longed for you
For more than a million dreams
You’re the one
I have been strong for you
You don’t know how hard it’s been
Don’t stop now,
Darling you’re getting to me
Don’t quit now
That you’re ahead
Don’t stop now
You’ve made an impression on me
Now there’s no getting you out of my head.

Poetry: Yearning
Though the Judas Hole
Prison.
Day grows wide-
the cathedral of a stone balloon
an empty leaden lung.
I laugh because it's funny
Night-peace falls short
even with squelched ears.
Medications don't make me slumber
but their side effects are always
by Allyn Smith
A Humble Zephyr
She’s a wandering wind yearning
for the place
Where she might find a cloud in need of a ride
or a tired
Yearning
My heart yearns for her smile as reward for clumsy words,
Thoughts so clear suddenly turn to chaos in a loss of time
Too late the girl to dance
The drummers in silence crouched
Sad, the drums too cold
Of failing to sound the night
And the moon
