A Natural High

I saw my pharmacist the other day
He said you’d better find a way
To cut out your dependence
On the artificial stimulants
So ever since you came along
My constitution feels so strong
I’m trading my bad habits
For a natural high
You’re a sensation I can’t describe
You’re every drug that Aldous Huxley was prescribed
You are my ecstasy and my amphetamines
You are a joint that’s rolled with gold and laced with methydrine
You’re a temptation I can’t resist
You’re every snorter that Cole Porter ever sniffed
Just like some speedball out of the blue
And now all my trips have been eclipsed by you
When I’m completely out of my brain
This sensation that you’re giving me
Has been intoxication once again
I’m in Haight Ashbury when you are near
And I see those psychedelic flowers appear
It’s a cold turkey when we’re apart
And this sensation that you’re giving me
Has been intoxication since
You came like a narcotic
And made everything chaotic
And your influence hypnotic
Proved exotic and erotic
From the start

Skin

Blind men and lovers
Know that touch
Counts for as much
As the other senses
Sight and sound
And scent and taste
But skin gets you in
Past all defences
Beyond reason
Beyond rhyme
Out of sight
And out of time
So when you come calling
You’ll find me falling
Into a hopeless spin
I need that touch of skin on skin
Hand in water
Foot on sand
Summer heat
The breezes fanned
Cheek on pillow
Cool and white
Open window
On the night
Touch of feather
Wind on fur
Secret feelings
Wake and stir
When I find I’m falling
It’s you I’m calling
The enemy within
That certain thought of skin on skin
Tender cling
Of silk on shoulder
Soft and cool
But seems to smoulder
Whispered breaths
That thrill and tingle
Skin that shivers
Senses mingle
Even in the darkest night
you can set the world alight
So when you come calling
I find I’m falling
That’s how it all begins
I need that touch of skin on skin.
