ARE LIKE AIR TO A DROWNING MAN
ARE LIKE WATER TO A MAN IN THE DESERT
ARE LIKE FOOD TO A STARVING SURVIVOR
ARE LIKE A CHEVY MOTOR IN A FORD
ARE LIKE AN ISLAND TO A SHIPWRECKED MAN
ARE LIKE A RABBIT TO AN EAGLE
ARE LIKE THE SPRING AFTER A COLD WINTER
ARE LIKE A DEER TO THE HUNTER
ARE LIKE SEX TO A NYMPHOMANIAC
ARE LIKE AN OVERCOAT IN WINTER
ARE LIKE SHELTER FROM A THUNDERSTORM
ARE LIKE THE FIRST FLOWERS OF SPRING
ARE LOVE TO A LONELY HEART
ARE MY SALVATION HERE IN PRISON.
1995
