Today's Verse: 27 March 2021

The snails are rising
In towns and cities
The snails are rising
Throughout the land

The snails are rising
It isn't pretty
The snails are rising
They're out of hand

Inside their shells
There's trouble brewing
Inside their shells
The flames are fanned

Inside their shells
The fire's fueling
Inside their shells
Revolt is planned

What do they want?
What is their creed?
To satisfy
Their endless craving?
And to assuage
Their shameless needs?

The snails are rising
The earth is trembling
The snails are rising
It's judgement day

The snails are rising
In ranks assembling
The snails are rising
Too late to pray

Today's Verse: 18 March 2021

Felice has gone away
Dawn saw her silent leaving
Her neighbours fret and pray
She will not be returning

We loved her very much
We loved her very, very much
We loved her very much
Now she's gone away

I saw you hesitate
In between both now and then
Trying to seduce fate
Any way you lose and win

I love you very much
I love you very, very much
I love you very much
Now you've gone away

Daybreak came
I fell asleep
Afraid of losing you

When I awake
My mind at ease
You tell me what I always knew

Fire will consume us
In smoke we wander home
Water will entomb us
Nevermore to be alone

I loved you very much
I loved you very, very much
I loved you very much
And now you've gone away

Dancing with my demons
Making out like my sweet lord
The world is only seeming
A dream and nothing more

We love you very much
We love you very, very much
We love you very much
Now that you've gone away

Today’s Verse: 2 March 2021

 In a classy limousine 

He is often vaguely seen

Though the window’s not yet shut

You can see his shiny butt

Hover in the gloaming air

All at once, no longer there
