• Puka   (Guitar: Puka  )   (2008)

from the top of a ridge lean a candle over the edge  shine it across the face of the cliff and bend a light leap  woo who  hop on the twice good grace of whatever may happen sailing willy nilly in the twinkling light leap  woo who  some thing must seem as it might  a cool sightseer has calm advice  ride wings on winds that harness light  open your eye and take a chance  get out and answer to never return to the hole  feel the spirit in the mist behind a waterfall  see the mother of pearl flaring the light leap  woo who  meet me on the rhythmic beat running against time  on a tour guided flight step your feet into the light leap  woo who  get out and be free tonight  navigate a sun ray and share the light  all things seem as it might  harness the light  get out alive  get out of the hole on your own  light a candle and bend it over your soul  ride wings on winds of light  get out alive  get out of the hole on your own  hole  woo who

• Waves Of The Ocean   (Guitars:  Waves Of The Ocean )  (2008)

see ashore  you and i are waves of the ocean  glowing blue swells rolling emotion of the ocean  joining geometric bumping equal planes of motion  swirling seventeen and infinity soothing sides  see ashore  you and i are waves of the ocean  surging weather tides create a relaxing rise bringing high stairs climbing atop coral  parachutes rush the front line  feeling gliders slowly reaching our glassy tube launching smooth curls spray  a hardy blast surrounding an echo mixing fair minded flows  curving and merging crossing resolution  appearing extreme and crashing between sand  sing once more with the rain from a storm of poor girl’s tears  flow into the river overflowing hope to someday return in the stream assisting spinner dolphins playing and adoring to see ashore  discovery  you and i are waves  you and i are waves of the ocean

• String   (Guitars:  String )  (2007)

you should be by my side  i guess i could have told you hold our strings end and fly  bindings unravel until ends in hands  i guess i should have shown the tenacity and unwind our spun entanglement  i’ll unravel everything everywhere  hold our strings ends and fall again saying bop bop a loo do bop bop a loo do bop bop bop bop bop bop ba da da do do do do oh bop a loo do  a cinder cone blows a molten pattern in the sky  some run in fear while others risk their eye  some drop and hug the ground while others bend with the ride  unwinding our string  send love on the line  kiss me from your mind  smoke and colorless sky deepens stank burnt bark  some cover their mouths while others write messages in the dust  sirens warn and scare  the sacred crumble from premonitions of destruction while others seek cleansing  the shock rumbles oceans sending waves to distant lands  waters rise on coasts as boulders fly and scatter ghosts  highs and lows collide above as god rains tears on good and bad  lightning bolts strike the sad  thunder  the dam buckles loose rushing its fury through the valley  many yell the end is here as the toll keeper hangs an electric blinking sign of peace  atmosphere opens a vacuum and sucks the seas surge  music fills ears  wow

• Identity   (Guitars:  Identity ) (2007)

through dawn  through dawn exhaling the nights yawn  in my quite room visit through illusions  release a buds bloom of rigid lines  go  hold on tight and know when to let go  vanish in brightness and know admirable ideals  frantically align consciousness  frantically align  place a buzz kill  as desires loosely inspire vanishing in flight  missing darkness  excusing showers visioning a trace of light  vanishing in flight visioning a trace of light  know when to let go  go  buds bloom from wrapping arms  let me know  hold on tight and know when to let go  go  let go  go  i’m loosing my identity  i’m loosing my identity  let go  go  it is time to cruise

• The Elephant Said   (Guitars:  The Elephant Said )  (2008)

escape the cage  rewrite destiny  embrace rarity  flee the trap  history  saunter through the door in spatial awareness venture  abide by the tigers rule: hold the key  move continually  use stealth sleekness  hide with no misery  unshackle and release locked memory  set free mystery  easily question reality answering why  body faster and smart  the strongest of any find  every kind loose grateful run loudly sounding trumpeting of stride  forget through the cat’s eye  in every instance cool cats always glide  meek mice slide away with pride  set free lost the key watching a horrid stone aflame send the tiger into sky  heart pain love in her eye  bitten so young  beyond the bitter tongue of greedy fun lost in the sun  and the elephant said  remember this song before my time is gone  sung by deeper breaths  a sigh goodbye  i don’t know why  blundering idiots

• Thief   (Guitars: A Little More )  (2009)

as the story goes  the wolf in sheep’s clothing wears a spangled crest crowned with half the wealth of the world while carrier pidgins preach tough luck on your wild goose chase in the knotted forest of verbal intercourse  roll the stone just a little more and keep the wolf from the door  queens and kings clip the wings of labor making blue and white collar workers loiter for a job in the castle  the homeless mayor leads families with their tents and broken cars to the shore line of hassle  roll the stone just a little more  roll the stone  hiding in then to when as a perfect conspiracy like dropping a bucket into an empty well of clouded perception  the best guess blows an ignorant whistle playing first fiddle with the riddle hidden in a funny joke laughing over the resistant wish  roll the stone just a little more and throw the dog a bone  what makes the rubber hit the ground is the engine that makes the sound  on a fine line between doing something now and nothing at all the thief wears the crown  what if somebody knew about you and told everybody “the pyramid scam is the father to the thought”  law abiding superiors’ take the cake commanding “just do as you are told if you do not roll the stone”

• Harmony  (Guitars:  Harmony )  (2005)

connecting memory that is airy witty and orderly is peaceably encompassing harmony  all indecisively striving for balancing tranquility  any method sounds pleasingly  merge into rhythm  progress into melody  tie your chords intently with harmony  rhythm  melody and harmony  rhythms sanity encompasses melody  two or more intuitively symmetrically joining with harmony  there are three moving souls of unity  rhythm  melody and harmony bring each expression in vast succession while paralleling easily dependently surrounding rhythms adventuring into emotional predictability  and suggesting irregularities  brings on potential jeopardy  so, combine us please  merge into rhythm  progress into melody  tie your chords intently with harmony  sounds of unity with harmony

• Cry  (1980)

this morning i woke up alone  feeling tired without you  out my window feeling blue  feel there’s nothing i can do  i went to call you on the phone but the music kept playing through my mind  knowing we had lost the time  we were so unkind  we’re going down  my mirror’s a frown  it’s time to ground  dependent on your early tone  the eggs i fried were scrambled  like what we gave was jambled and what we tried to save  down  my mirror’s a frown  it’s time to ground  this morning i woke up alone feeling tired without you  out my window feeling blue  feel there’s nothing i can do  i feel there’s noting i can do

• Ballerina   (Guitars:  2nd Waltz )  (2006)

do you dance?  do you spin through air?  do you prance?  do you swirl and lead the trail of your spin?  in my tail of travesty your frills are light  send me right to your door  separate my bad memories of crying in the dark  see this one  i beg you  don’t ever leave  do you dance?  do you spin through air?  do you swirl and spin a departed trail we share?  suspended emotion  reach out and touch me  kiss me  kiss me  i’ll soar with you  hold everything  you are altering my mind  surrounded in your energy your twirls propel suspension of time  won’t you stop and straighten out lies in my life  enter my life

• Aloha   (Guitars: Aloha )  (2011)

under sky into air  rainbows shine over surf pounding salt  afternoon clouds blow in breeze calling her children home  rolling fog and water falls run off green rock and giant ferns filling the pond in the valley above the dancing city  papa tells an old story about his daddy the ocean and the land  elders lifting stones forgive the king tumbling in the waves as a baby in grandmother’s arms on her beaches and bays  out into the sunset through the back door  going with her home

• Slide   (Guitars:  Slide )  (2006)

slide right  slide left  use an umbrella in the rain  walk an ant trail  go on a date to a bunny hop  watch a tap dance  have a ball  slide right  slide left  wear a yellow jacket  make a wish  hang in there  hang up  step up  be a wise ass  slide right  bang a hum drum  slide right  watch a storm drain  slide left  shoot the breeze and eat finger food  become a star  hold an even keel  hold your hands on the steering wheel and slide left

they were counting their shielding  starting for the trail  staking lives making lives trade lives and ail  fighting in corners they fought loosing instead  too cool for the boiler man screaming off with his head  mr. blister  his infantry guarded but frail  fantasized being king  doubted he'd fail  it’s the battle of oil to his subjects he said but was really a lady's love he fought for instead  the bishnueice of opec now stifling his sound caused the wounding of blister's pawn just at sundown  terror of cavalries started the scare as flying red armaments streaked into air  the yellow rose princess now stooped in her chair  searing swats scraping her lair  extending her finger in flagrant despair with blasphemous concubines’ corporate affairs  the boiler man's ringing the ruins charade  mr. blister croons dashingly  pulsing his pain  the bishnueice plucking parasites theatrical parade  the yellow rose princess reeking disdain  in an instant the malady phony it sighed with visionary militants starting to cry

attach the wood and glide the soft sparkling diamonds in the ground  scream out loud for the mountain  screaming for the mountain agape and capturing the water quenching thirst for the crystals  peering through the evergreens  gripping the snow winter

• Prelude and Summit  Long version   (Guitars:  Donner Summit )  (2007)

driving to climb the mountain in the cold  gentle wind and heavy rain clearing my brain  little towns along a winding road hunkered down for the storm  fires in homes warm hearts  invigorating charm is sensationalizing flakes drifting, floating and sinking  gently touching faces  winters snow
