If only I could turn you inside out...
And see the world that lives inside you...
I bet there's children that play tag near a rainbow that falls from your heart...
And a fountain that sprays stars from its spout...
...
Caught between light and never ending nights, wielding words that I don't understand,
Where cats and pens dance alone in the bend of a hand that is holding all man.
...
There is a mysterious twilight that shades my spire,
So they may not see me from the corner of their eyes,
I watch them dance a slow song,
It swells round my lifeless ears perfectly,
...
My perspectives lessen with the very ballrooms I've crept in,
The swaying dancers that waltz along the quilted beige silk,
In each hand is a sweat that remembers a bet,
This bet that lingers under their dancing quartet,
...
A great confusion towards the bounty of love,
A million on its head or more,
What are we to do but watch and squeal,
As the bounty is completed,
...
I drift along a certain valley of sin,
Internally opposing the simple desires I long for,
Yet, I feel at peace,
For I am free of a mind - mindless...
...
My first wish a sail,
To drift us away,
Second no land,
So the waters we'd stay,
...
In the shear meadows of a frozen wonder,
The snow tumbles along on top of the badger homes,
The sun is hidden behind a crowd of cumulus cotton balls,
And it is colder than the ice that dangles from the tree branches,
...
Stitch my heart with the woes you've created,
So it may let me know you love me,
Your inability to feel in an impossible rumor,
Because your eyes say otherwise,
...
Restless burdens sing in grotesque gardens,
Dead zinnias twirling in an evening wind,
The blackened buds grazed with the grim reaper's scythe,
And mortar and pestle and old dying eyes,
...
