Jo Kansas

.

I've know Jo Kansas
for a long time now . . .
she's my lover, and she's not,
sometimes cold and sometimes hot;
she's the wind blowing my hair,
she's a story hard to tell,
she's the dream every man has,
but she is so hard to catch.

Jo Kansas--such a strange name.
Jo Kansas--pleasure and pain,
star falling down from the sky,
next to you . . . and still, so high. . . .

Jo Kansas is every girl
that I love, even if she's not mine. . . .

She's the sun that never shines.
