Sleeping under the apple tree
Puzzle half done on the table
Yeah…..as we wait for gravity
The author is as good as is able

Drive to the city in quarter light
The billboards illuminate the cause
Yeah…the Shadows lean without a fight
Evaporate into shopping malls
Broken promises ,Doubting Thomas’s
Skies look ominous

Green , green so vivid
Like the color of the riddle
As it fades to mean
Playing monkey in the middle
with a photograph of the dream.

Nothing left to think about
The mystery solved in greens and hues
Yeah….take to the streets and scream and shout
Or grab a guitar and go sing the blues

We pay our share
Like all good time travelers do
Rarely here always there
Envy spilling everywhere.

As you watch your precious time march on !

Lack of presence, greed and envy taking over my mind at times. So I wrote a song about it. More psychedelic overtones. Even backwards tracks.
