THE SPRING EQUINOX BALLADE - EDITED
(On the Equinox Paradox)

The day of the Spring Equinox,
Big South Weather is swallowing the rocks,
Down at the sea coast I took a look,
Sleeplessness and raki making me puke.

I stayed awake through all night before,
Talking and drinking senseless to the core,
With Niki we were talking all our griefs,
Artistic and political beliefs.

Early last night she asked without pretext,
If I would like with her some hot wild sex,
I had accepted, so I brought her home,
Expecting sex with her will be the norm.

I noticed that she took a perfumed shower,
Her body had the scent of a fresh flower,
And thus she sat beside me rolling joints,
Smoking and talking both on various points.

I thought that she was hoping to see if,
I could get horny after every splif,
Giving no indication of her lust,
As if it's understood I should move fast.

Now, the trouble with me after a splif,
Is that I want to talk about my grief,
Although having sex enters my mind,
It goes back to the grief, a step behind.

Our night rolled away with endless talk,
Morning had broken through, so nine o' clock,
Full of raki and dope we went to bed,
And nothing more of sex by me was said.

But then, so close together on my bed,
We felt perhaps that yet we are not dead,
Our golden love affair although past,
Lingers within us purely still as lust.

She started talking of when she was young,
A friendly couple and her forming a gang,
All three roaming in Athens all night long,
And never doing to each other wrong.

Some day from the boy she had a call,
Asking if they would meet at night fall,
She said, "Of course!"And she put down the phone,
But on that night this boy came alone.

"Where is your girl friend?" said she in surprise,
"Well", said the young man, "let us break the ice,
She does not have to be always with us,
I want to fuck you, let's not make a fuss!"

"So, did you fuck your friend's boy friend?" I ask,
"Oh yes!" says Niki, "always a hard task,
But in those years I could not say "no",
I let him fuck me, no one was to know!

"I could not say "no" to any one,
I was too timid, also 't was good fun,
Nothing to do with love, a fuck's a fuck,
Nothing to do with us, we're out of luck".

Her story made me to forget my grief,
Without suspecting now I had a stiff,
I kissed her just to help her understand,
This serial, between us, one night stand.

But getting hotter by this single kiss,
I thought, "let's have a fuck since it's her wish,
Check also if she can ever say "no",
Or it's a tale to have me on the go.

STYLE MODULATION

Raki and grief and dope consisting my dim wits,
I still lean forward softly to caress her tits,
To my surprise she escapes, pushing me back,
She says, "So now you got hot, you want a fuck?

"You've heard my story now and you're hot,
Forget it, baby, you shall have me not!
You should have done it a few hours ago,
As always you were more cold than snow."

"Life has tought you then to say "no",
But now you're saying "no" to the wrong man,
It does not mater, babe, we let it go,
Love and respect we have without the fun."

I just remember how it used to be,
We were so much in love, we stopped the cloks,
Now, I for Edeltraud, you for me,
Perhaps it's fair this love equinox.
