I grew up in Toms River, NJ and spent most of my childhood and young adulthood at the beach.
All eyes staring
They’re looking at me, looking at me
They know me better than me
Can they see, I don’t know me?
My world is silent
But I speak my mind
Since I’m alone
And the wind is blowing
My mind blows too
But I speak my mind
Since I’m alone
If everyone could hear me
They’d know what I really am
Am I really me?

November 27, 1991 1:00 PM (age 24) Insanity travels upon it's journey stops at a place to rest upon a mind of comfort all to try his best on providing himself with luxuries of a closed peaceful home seclusion on the part of the beholder secretly faces his roam. Restless in sleep he makes an entrance. We speak of his kind too often. Once quietly invaded with peace, the body's trapped in a coffin. How lightly we've come to use his terms unmistakably guided by reason for each freak of nature constitutes trademark of treason. The wellest of minds fall at his feet all to create our pleasures. I admire these people tremendously I'd like to gather their treasures. Collective images cannot be reproduced but attached by a common goal. Gathered by onlookers performing a specific role. Some are lead into isolation corrected by the taught who know not the genius but make sure the mind is caught into terms from the doctor's pen invented for our protection in order to save the boring categorized by selection. These minds are all too perfect on the expression of thought though hard to interpret, it's something I've sought to gain that depth of reason beyond sanity but in control gaining from the intellect not the saving of the soul.
Wanted Wanted: Son Rays
Hair brown lips scarlet
Age 5300 days
Profession none or Starlet
Where are you hiding Son Rays
Why are you hiding darling
I talk in a daze, I walk in a maze
“I can not get out”, said the Starling
Where are you riding Son Rays
What make is the magic carpet
Is a cream cougar the present craze
And where are you parked my car pet
Who is your hero Son Rays
Still one of those blue-eyed caped star-men?
On the balmy days and the palmy bays
And the cars and the bars
My Carmen

The ring from the phone
Broke my ears
Now I can hear
You; my dear
Did you say you saw a diamond ring
Or was it a piece of dirt?
Your sunglasses are crooked
I thought – how can you
see out of no eyes.
I can’t hear
And you are blind
Are we poor or out of our minds?
When you saw this
I might hear wrong
You might not have seen a thing
But an old diamond ring

YOUR CAR
Break in the new shoes
Your car blew up
I was walking by
When I saw the fire
What made you hated?
Was it something you said
Obviously your car didn’t like you either
Your car had a fever
And you didn’t know

JUST THROW IT AWAY
Just throw it away
Why do you keep it hanging here
Just throw it away
You never speak
You have no eyes
Everything dies
Just throw it away
It hangs here like an angry cat
Wiping it’s feet on a welcome mat
But you’re not welcome here
Just throw it away.
