Dance
dance dance dance
it's time for
a little romance
chance chance chance
catch my eye
and return my glance
dance dance dance
the music puts
me in a trance
do the mambo
with me baby
come on baby
let's dance

A Friend In Nature
I've found a friend in nature
although nature could turn on me
if i'm out and about in a storm
and its lightning strikes me
if a tidal wave sweeps me far out to sea
or a poisonous snake takes a bite of me
if a tornado twirls me high into the sky
yes, the irony is that nature which
i find so enchanting
could one day cause my demise

Lizzie Borden
a simple whack or two
with the ax wouldn't do
she kept on whacking till
she was through
reducing the family
to only two

Loving The Wrong Man
loving the wrong man
is what i do best-
the distant man
the man already taken
the forbidden one
who can't quite
get it (whatever
it is)
right at home
and you (with all
of your charms)
i'll probably end up
disliking you too
after i have gotten
all of the love
that i can get (although
i can't even imagine
that now) as we stand
here puffing on
our cigarettes
alone for the very
first time
making polite conversation
and sharing a
few good stares
Faith Elizabeth Brigham
