"Looks like a buttery biscuit cueball moon

Rollin' maverick against an obsidian sky.

Makin' it's way back to it's prepaid room at the St. Moritz Hotel."

Tom Waits , Nighthawk Postcards

Quoted that one last night as we watched the full moon reflect on the river at our favourite pub.

I run a little insurrection that moves in the direction that

beauty is beauty in spite of perfection,



see the crosses at the roadside



see the thorn bush in blazin' bloom

(snip)

And so the clear blue sky no, she never made a sound

though she was blindfolded, gagged and bound

now see the poppies pushin' up through the bones on the ground

but the body's never found

"Better Beautiful Than Perfect" (Sonoran Hope and Madness album)

-Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers

In the shuffling madess

Of the locomotive breath,

Runs the all-time loser,

Headlong to his death.

He feels the piston scraping --

Steam breaking on his brow --

Old charlie stole the handle and

The train wont stop going --

No way to slow down.

He sees his children jumping off

At the stations -- one by one.

His woman and his best friend --

In bed and having fun.

Hes crawling down the corridor

On his hands and knees --

Old charlie stole the handle and

The train wont stop going --

No way to slow down.

He hears the silence howling --

Catches angels as they fall.

And the all-time winner

Has got him by the balls.

He picks up gideons Bible --

Open at page one --

Old charlie stole the handle and

The train wont stop going --

No way to slow down.
