I’ve swapped my touch of love
For one that’s unrequited
I’ve swapped my near you love
For now I’m uninvited
Though unrequited is quite handy
You’re with me now I’m sure
Yes uninvited is quite handy
Sitting on the southern shore
I’ll steal from Mister Arnold
I’ll steal from Master Keats
Yes unrequited is quite handy
When stealing from the Beats
It is a new found freedom
Writing what and when I like
The spite and haste are put aside
On this new found magic carpet ride
It is a somewhat different Journey
Not known in the several stages of grief
It is a distinct overtly stranger journey
My past mind kind of that I leave
Rattle on the rail track
Verges merge behind
Chattel’s up the smoke stack
Uninvited; do you mind, thank you kind
I’ve read all the papers
Cheap at half the price
Reading rooms are quite a caper
Unrequited; don’t ask twice, that’s nice
The tone is turned and twisted
Freedom once again to roam
The tome is weighted, but I’m not listed
I wonder, but only in a philosophic way
