I
Being almost homeless
Is better than all the way I guess
Today than yesterday
In an unusual place to stay
But someplace anyway
Someplace to be unusually
Though I am unusual too so
I know still I will grow
Unless I think of home and despair
But home is anywhere
So I will grow now and still go on
Somehow till I am gone
Someplace to spend the night
Being almost homeless but not quite
II
Good to be with good to see
These dusty dogs again
Though not so dusty now as when
Out there in the desert then
These grimy dogs of the city
Bud said but Marisol is pretty
As Bowser is handsome both of
Whom have always lived their lives for love
Wherever they are near or far
And now we remember how we are
Together as we have been
Good to be with good to see
These dusty dogs again
III
Sometimes without warning
Depression in the morning
Comes like a cloud to be
Like a shadow over me
And will not go away
Until it has had its say
No matter what I do
Depression can find a way
To dream reality
A nightmare in the day when
What is becomes what was
Doing what depression does
When now is then again
In its sway it has its way
Until it has run through
When the morning comes up blue
