Song: Run Away!




Run Away! (Douglas Brent Smith)


Don’t go to the basement in your underwear
Maybe you can’t tell but there’s a monster down there
Do yourself a favor and turn on a light
Pay attention if you want to live thru the night

Did you notice that the kitchen knives are missing?
Now is not the time for teen age lover kissing
Did you notice that the lights are blinking?
Why head for the danger? What are you thinking?

(chorus:)
Every scary movie has them: brainless fools
Walking into danger as the monster drools
Zombies and slashers love ‘em, they taste so good
And never do the one thing that they should:
Run away!     Run away!    Are you an idiot?     Run away!

If you’re smart you’ll avoid that cabin in the woods
the one with a history of evil up to no good
If it’s Friday the 13th you might want to stay awake
Dreaming on that night could be a really big mistake  (chorus)

Song: Scary Halloween

i went shopping for a pumpkin ran into a Christmas tree instead of seeing orange and black i saw red and green scary Halloween, scary Halloween i got stuck in between Christmas and scary Halloween i went looking for Frankenstein and monsters to fill me with fear but instead i found Santa Claus and his flying reindeer scary Halloween, scary Halloween i got stuck in between Christmas and scary Halloween tried to find my favorites at the grocery store but they're hard to find so tucked away things aren't where they usually live everything is there to give attention to the holiday display scary Halloween, scary Halloween i got stuck in between Christmas and scary Halloween i don't like to complain too much but why are we in such a holiday rush? with so many days between now and then but here we are counting down the days again scary Halloween, scary Halloween i got stuck in between Christmas and scary Halloween -------------------------...

poem: patiently

i want to read every book touch every flower, breathe in every mint aired aroma, laugh at all of your jokes      over again see all of your faces trace the years between us and smoothe the bumpy gaps i want to bake a cake so big it takes a lifetime to eat and create a life so long that all the cake is gone i will have it, i will eat it.      i will treat it as your appetizer for better (much better) days to come and what you can't see now in you in me in us in eternity eternally waits,      patiently for your discovery.

Awkward Climb

  "Must be January." "Yep." "That's when you work on and think about collages the most." "Correct." "Good times." "Indeed." I look out the window. Snow. Not Chicago level snow, but still snow. Colder than usual. Later than usual. If life is a collage, the picture is still forming. It will be there even when we're not looking. Even when we're not there." Awkward Climb -- collage by Douglas Brent Smith, 1997

intermittant

there were chance meetings distributed miles and months touching us taunting us locking us into a long tight wire of vibrating nuance you knew this, and kept on dancing i knew this, and...what? what  did it mean? how would it turn? oh how we would yearn...oh how we would learn.
