It can only mean the end of the world ahead.
Frogs or dirty old toads line the forest
with rainbows on their backs. An angel walked over the world, and his
gold skin and flames for hair are only a glimpse of what I thought
capable to dream. My young friend's pretty eyes and fair Hare like an
angels skin walks his dog over the blacktop though nothing is ever what
it seems.
The asylum was not kind to me, "we will strap you down and shoot you up
on meds!" I was told. Though an anonymous phone call spared me more
than I deserved. Sleeping in the grass, freshly mowed, and sticking to
my clothes. They drove me in a prison cell over the interstate. My steel
box was bouncing me around in handcuffs without a seatbelt.
Symbols have a way of getting away...walking over the world or down the
aisle of some other man's wedding. Still, they have a purpose because
safety is always a concern. "Maybe he will be tempted? Make him go to
the cafeteria?" I started to laugh, " you had to say it...tempted." I
was fasting to be rid of these devils, yet they are here and always have
a position of power.
Blood diamond, a ten-pound scab. What will I trade you for? The world
doesn't want you, so you belong to me. The saddest thing is not always
obvious. The saddest things are secrets shared in whispers. "They were
only mean to you because everyone else was." Another easter without the
second coming...what if it was a mistake?
