April 21,1988 THE LANCE page 7 WINDFALL II Pastels Explode into reds A sea of oblivion At low tide Waves touch the sand Quickly pulling away The seagull Gracefully sweeping the surface Rising Only to descend again The constancy of sunrises Over and over and over Pa5t, present, future Mesh into one (And I long for the everlasting Paradise of your touch) Pamela E. Coble I am haunted by the Indian.' things present are past to present again & again & again so what? does it really matter? do you think it was all bullshit anyway? no We knew it all along, but you didn’t have to say it - it was something on the highway that made me think about it; or maybe it was mushrooms. Is respect the greater form of love? Killing is different than murder Ooo Killer, lover, goddess suck it Sweet new Jesus they raised the drinking age but no new highways have been built - does it really - Now that I’ve been tom apart myself looking at love (and I’ve looked at you for quite awhile) What do you think I see? New Life? New Love? The Highway? Paul Bullard BREATHLESS She foolishly wishes For a painful knock into breathlessness Not because of love — Love needs only: hearts, arms, and sliding tongues - Not because of desire — It is her heart that yearns — nothing below Not because of happiness — An equally tempord joy she finds at the bottom of a wine bottle. But because this is the only way she knows to make herself feel whole And until she realizes that she is the missing part Again and again, some poor fool will be knocking her breathless As she answers him with the loveless, lustless, joyless gasps of her missing self. Carol Woodley ICE HOT A contradiction of terms perhaps, but i don’t think so. For they become you very well; I should know. Do you lead me on unconsciously? One to twenty-four; you are loving and so kind. Forty-eight from twenty-four: am I not also on your mind? Constantly flames bum inside me, started by your glare. You know I long for you, yet you act unaware. For what do I owe this cruelty? If ever I have caused you pain (make no mistake). Relate the unforgivable deed, and my life I shall take Certainly you must know now how I feel for you, Tis why I haven’t reason why you do what you do. Is this some game you’ve been taught to play? For if it is, you’ve learned it very well. And could make ice cold, the hot fires of hell. ENDLESS SEARCHING If you only felt the struggle If you only knew the fear How could there be happiness In a world so'full of tears A doomy cloud of emptiness surrounds this lonely heart A mind trapped in a body longing endlessly to part This soul is always searching for a love lost somewhere in time A forlorn loss of emotion becomes an external aching grind Yet the sun still breaks the darkness And the sky stays just as blue The earth is sweetly tainted by the early morning dew Just a seed in a heavenly body Growing, bending, stretching tall Reaching out to find you... disappointed by the fall. Becca Isabell Heaven holds no greater loveliness, though seraphic beings abound, And orpheus, with his lyre, could not make more euphonious music, her laughter is the sweetest sound. Her eyes are pools of autum leaves, shifting gently from green to brown. Her smile is far brighter than any morning star, she is the dawn when the sun goes down. With a heart as vast as the oceans, which is filled just as deeply with love. She has stolen my soul with her warmth, and her arms are the only heaven 1 dream of. But though my love for her is undeniably true, and she is the realization of my every desire. My burning heart knows she is not for me to love. In hell there is no greater fire.
