“Boats and Birds”

Boats and Birds
Gregory and the Hawk

If you’ll be my star,
I’ll be your sky
You can hide underneath me
and come out at night
When I turn jet black
and you show off your light

I live to let you shine
I live to let you shine

You can sky rocket away from me
And never come back if you
find another galaxy
Far from here,
with more room to fly
Just leave me your stardust
to remember you by

If you’ll be my boat,
I’ll be your sea
Depth of pure blue
just to proke curiosity
Ebbing and flowing,
and pushed by a breeze

I live to make you free
I live to make you free

And you can set sail to the west
if you want to
Pass the horizon
’til I can’t even see you
Far from here,
where the beaches are wide
Just leave me your wake
to remember you by

If you’ll be my star,
I’ll be your sky
You can hide underneath me
and come out at night
When I turn jet black
and you show off your light

I live to let you shine
I live to let you shine

You can sky rocket away from me
And never come back if you
find another galaxy
Far from here,
with more room to fly
Just leave me your stardust
to remember you by

Stardust to remember you by

Two Poems by Marilyn Monroe

Life–
I am of both of your directions
Somehow remaining hanging downward
the most
but strong as a cobweb in the
wind–I exist more with the cold glistening frost.
But my beaded rays have the colors I’ve
seen in a painting–ah life they
have cheated you

*

I can’t really stand Human
Beings sometimes–I know
they all have their problems
as I have mine–but I’m really
too tired for it. Trying to understand,
making allowances, seeing certain things
that just weary me.
