Nectarine Roulette I live my life without regret Standing in the Sun Nec.ta.rine It doesn’t matter who you are It doesn't matter what you know It doesn’t matter how you feel Nec.ta.rine Time it seems is ripening My winning projections gambling fruitful connections If my skin is firm will I bruise and burn or will I be protected like the leather strong complexion of a Nec.ta.rine

I am dreaming of Kentucky I heard of a quiet place there Where you can sit on the front porch Watch the sun rise Let the day just roll on from there I heard of a man, in a cabin, in Kentucky That man, I heard, found happiness there He climbed up a mountain seven stories high I am dreaming of Kentucky I am dreaming of Kentucky Planting new seeds in Kentucky On the mountain I am dreaming of Kentucky Planting new seeds in Kentucky In my dreams I am dreaming of Kentucky I am dreaming of Kentucky Climbing a mountain All seven stories I am dreaming of Kentucky Planting new seeds I am dreaming of Kentucky Climbing a mountain all seven stories I am dreaming of Kentucky On the mountain Planting new seeds I am dreaming

It’s raining and it’s really hot I need a poncho so I don’t get wet And so I go to CVS Like everybody else It’s really, really, really crowded But I find the ponchos first So I buy all the ponchos It makes some people really made Because they all wanted ponchos And so I tell them, “Too bad, so sad, go to Walgreens” We’re walking to the Museum of Death When you’re in New Orleans They say you ought to go there And so we saw a lot of horrible And a lot of people Some of them were really wet Because they didn’t have a poncho

Hello butterfly How are you today? I saw you moving in the sky Lightwalking When I take the proper seat I being to see Things that once were clear to me When I take the proper seat, I begin to see things I see in front of me With new clarity I do what I say and I say what I do Lightwalking I saw a butterfly walking on light then a golden beam and a green leaf A moment, a blip of lucidity Lightwalking
