Uh-huh

The more you communicate
The more you want to indicate
That its not what you are stating
There's more under the hood
A state of mind thats craving
To be understood

To understand to relate
What you cannot state
The listener who's willing
Has lived or is living
And mirrors the craving
Thats when its thrilling
The kinship of sharing
An experience and knowing
The heart rending and gut wrenching
Thirst that needs quenching

The need to relate
Is hard to narrate
The unstated is stated
When you are well treated
The desire satiated
When nothing is stated
But all communicated

When you're loved accepted
Your views validated
The desire the ardour
To keep trying harder
No longer distresses
When everything expresses

You no longer indicate
That there is more than whats stated
You needn't gesticulate
Like an odd toed ungulate
Your viewpoint is mooted
Your feelings are noted

You don't need to communicate
When you can communicate

Quo Vadis

A chief with vision
Is the host
Who sees ghosts
Unless it matters
And proves its not just chatter
The statement that stings
Says they are seeing things
I saw things too
Made a statement or two
But I wasn't the chairman
So you see they went Oh!
And tucked me to bed man
To cool my fevered brow

If you Dance to their tunes
Over business valleys and dunes
You are following the Piper
Some Pipers are hyper
Some Pipers run capers
Do they know where they are going
What exactly is knowing
Is he really Moses
Or someone who poses
Do they know the route
Or look cute with a flute

If they can't make you prance
And rhythmically dance
Why fall into a trance
If they can't make music
The flute is not magic
Don't follow the leader
If you don't follow the leader
