Yes by Fassbinder

Twenty Questions by Fassbinder
She said “no” to me
To everything
Everyday
Except to having her hand
Everytime
Whatever I asked
‘No, no, no’.
The day the bathroom was fitted
I was fired from my job at 9am
I was home before noon
The place seemed different
Cold and empty
Like me
Moments after clicking the front door to
I froze
From what I could discern
I could hear coming
From a room upstairs
… her.
But it couldn’t be her
Could it?
Because I could hear her
Saying the word “Yes”
Perhaps fifteen times
I shuffled up the stairs
Then scaled the last risers
To the landing
In one
And ran into the bathroom
From whence the sound came
They both looked at me
“Noooo!... she said.
“It’s not what you think…
We’re playing twenty questions”.

Yes by Jo

The sound of children’s laughter
The turning of the leaves
How easy life could be
How beautiful love would be
If only I could say Yes
The desperation in her voice
The sadness that consumes her
Through the darkness she thinks
If only I could say yes
Today I stand in all my glory
No longer a prisoner of that world
Today I stand and to the world
I can say Yes.

Yes by Fassbinder

She shook her head defiantly
paused and said
“Not even for a million quid no”
He looked at the ground
then back in her eyes and whispered
“I-I, just want to get you into bed, p-lease”
“I bet you do, and then in five minutes you will disappear”
his mother said.
“... and the answer’s still no!...
It’s got bugs in it and worse
I’ve tried to tell the nurse
Take me ‘ome son
let me die with me creature comforts
will you son, will you?”
“Yes, mother
yes okay”.

Yes by Mario

The lastest never-done researchs of a non-existing
university, show that explorers have a strong
tendency to say “yes”
Other never-done researches, also point that explorers have
Mortality rate, disappointment rate, heart break rate and
Ankle twisted higher than the average
But, I haven’t heard of any explorer regret, except
One or two, or three, or four, or….
the rest know that when the say yes, the ‘S’ can
become the sound of a snake who gonna bite you
or just the wind blowing through the door
just opened
And they like it? Yes!!

Yes by Sean
Yes Yes yes to life and yes
to hope and yes to imagination
so we can create and yes
to the winds that blow away my troubles
and the autumn leaves that fall gently like my tears
and yes they bring me comfort.
Yes oh Yes always yes to love
because rivers flow through it and clear my eyes and
yes to the rough oceans we must cross to understand its power and depth and
yes to the waterfalls cascading with magical mystery and
yes oh yes I only have to call its name and
yes it will open the flood barriers
so I can glide with it in its rich oceans
and yes I must never fear its strength for
yes
It will give me wings and
yes always yes I shout to the heavens and to you
YES YES YES
