The Siren Whines

White lines and red lines flashing, slowly weaving their way through the blinds, curving over her breasts as she's arching. Paramedics pass in the night. How the Siren wails. How the Siren whines. And, the air is moist. And, her kiss is deep. The pupils in her eyes are glistening from the love beneath. The devil shrieks, "Hey! How could I deserve such a thing, when I've been dead to beauty and I've been numb to poetry?" My Lady Serene. She brings serenity.

Call Me Achilles

I don't want to be brought down by love. No. I don't want to be brought down by love. I am the son of a goddess, no joke, and if you cover up my heel, you'll never see me choke. Call me Achilles. I saw a lady down at the club. She shot me the eye and started shaking her rump, walked on over to me and said, "Hi, my name's Briseis." And, I said, "Call me Achilles." Achilles, when are you going to let your gaurd down. Will you carry your tattered heart from town to town? Achilles? You know my name, because my name is worth knowing. I fight for fame and I fight for glory. Cupid's at my heel. I can kiss my ass goodbye, becuase Cupid is at my heel. Achilles, why'd you ever let your gaurd down? Because, love is the only crown to which I bow.

Cupid (I Give You Love)
03:29

My hands are sore from putting arrows to my bow. My feet and wings are tough from the labors of the road. My head hangs heavy, for the road has worn me long. My heart cries and sputters, but I will carry on. I give you love. That's what I do. And, what I do, I'm doing for you. Please forgive me if it causes you pain, for you can't know joy without your suffering. I saw a man more ungrateful than any. I saw a man with more gifts than the rest. I saw a man who's only love was glory and I let an arrow fly at this pest. Achilles, the ungrateful and I, so resentful. What a pair we've become.
