There's hedgehogs in my garden
I only see them at night
sniffing and scuffling around
for worms, slugs and termites

They are such particular creatures
with their hardened spins on top
and very little downy fur underneath
they are rather lovely, sniffing underleaf

Those cute little snouts sniffing around
looking for creature that dwell underground
and when they are harassed at all
they do curl up into a tiny ball

I love the hedgehogs in my garden
they are such sweet little things
and when it's cold at night
I bring them warm milk and a bite

When the holy star fell to Earth
one of the greats died forever
he now is here forever dying
forever in suffering

Yet that star has found the key
he hid it for a long time beyond
and he means to escape
from this earth he calls Hell

He wants to go home
leave this world
so here he kneels
and asks to be taken

Others of his kin say..
you of battle
you angel killer
never, no never

My brother and sisters
humbly he bows
to those of excellence
that he means to slaughter by will

If only you could touch me
as I do touch you
but I am legend
and you must not touch me
if you only loved me
like the way I do love you

My love for you is forever
it is kind as the summer winds
may my perfume permanent the air
the scent of sweet garden roses everywhere
my kindness is you in dreams
and my cities your sweet wisdom

I'm picking up  the pieces of my life
and putting them in my black box
I send it across the universe
for all the angels to see

I want to call to them
I need them to help me
I will not hold my sword
when you come close

Don't fear me my kin
even though I am so mighty within
I promise not to scratch or bite
I'm just picking up the pieces of my life

They know me to well
blessed I am they come
they trust me implicitly
as my name is serendipity

She was my favorite *****
was my sweet black cat April
I had her for fifteen years
loving her adoring her

She was a sneaking cat
always finding her way onto my lap
she would purr and dribble with content
with her there on my lap, I was never dry

She was black and sleek
with big eyes of amber
I loved that cat
and will never forget her

I watched her die
and god and did I cry
never will I love another
as much as I loved her

So Lord Solaris, said my battle knight teacher,
what have you brought in for show and tell
I walked to the front of the class
with my bag heavy in my hand
lifting it up I put it on her desk
by her sweet command

I put a red apple on her desk
I wonder if they will guess
guess what I brought for show and tell
reaching into my black bag
I pull out my tears and sufferings
and the broken dreams of millions

I told them of the hurt and pain
all about the broken hearts
told the class that humans die
and that most do bitterly cry
told them how many times I died
and they all clapped to my surprise

I don't think they understood it nearly kills me
all that I accomplished did not fulfill me
then I reached deep into my bag
and with my right hand pulled out the Earth
then with tears in my eyes
I told them that this was the place of my birth

Wow look at them
in the tens of thousands
we have our work cut out
let us our war cry shout

We do formidable
as we are so able
bring it on, till kingdom comes
for we will slaughter all

No more war they said
peace on earth and all that ****
but look at it now
again we battle and are at war

War against slavery
war against oppression
war against cruelty
for we are formidable killers
