Last Night I Fell in Love

Last night I fell in love with Love,
and though it is out of fashion
I did not meet that special one
who filled my heart with passion.
 
If last night I fell in love, my love
like a star who onces shines
tonight it's fallen love, 
then falls into the dust and dies.

Doggone Dream'in

The dog did dream

as he lay down

a heavy sleep.

No noise no sound.

The comandante

had poured an ale

to quench the thirst

that made him pale.

But not the music

of the box

nor gifted craft

of love not lost

could shake his bone

that set like fire

of steal and meat

and rage and pyre.

Although the ale did

quench at first,

his soul did not

return from worse.

A stolen love had

played its part

and with it came

a stone of heart.

The dog awoke to feel

the cold

buried deep

beneath the bone.

But do not pity

his soul long

his body of black

was made in Hong Kong.
