the dog the lizard and the snake

The dog, the lizard and the snake 5th december2007
Inspired by J.Bacle

The dog, the lizard and the snake
He loved her madly, maybe that was the mistake

She turned up in the bar
And they went for a walk
She said she painted the sunset
But she didn’t want to talk

The dog, the lizard and the snake
she painted his life black
but he still wants her back
Turned up at the bar
And they went for a walk
Trying to get her back
But she still won’t talk

He looked into the lake
Tried to break the spell
The lake thanked him, Arthur
But he’s still in his hell

The dog gets up
The lizard stares on and she’s sleeping in the sun
She must be blind not to see
She was the only one

Crying like the poet,
Who cries out in his pain
Who looked for a princess
and found just a snake

the dog, the lizard and the snake
where is the princess
as he’s drowning in pain

On which side of the planet
On which side of the mountains
On which side of the coin
Is there a princess or a snake?

West Kennet

West kennet

Late at night
Dark
Frosty ground crunches underfoot
Fear grips my heart
It wont let go
Not sure I can carry on

Got there and standing outside
Slowly fear starts to slide
Im going in
Down the steps
Of straw put down some time before

Main chamber surprisingly dry
But for some reason I want to cry

Shot marks on the wall
Target practice for the small minded
Take them down and bring them home
Sad for them
They don’t see

Light the incense
Warm now
Rattle and hum
Rattle and hum

They join in
Lots of them
More than I imagined
A bit overwhelming

Stop
Silence
Then a reply
Freeze

More reply
I join back in

It starts to rain on me
But this cant be
Im inside


‘Even the water that falls from the mountain is warm’
A sign
Everything is fine
Drop down
What is there to be scared of?
One day my ashes will be scattered in here
If im lucky

Maybe my daughter will spend the night here
Maybe she’ll be scared too
Forget fear
Focus

Its OK
Time to go
Say thanks
Thanks for having me
Byeeee!
See you next time
