I saw madness in his hands shaped like a path straight to me straight thru me I pretended I was shy He thought he knew me Fingers stained primary colors                                he'd told this story before and bold strokes, he painted his home Across my skin a wilderness awakened while my eyes closed                  to heat with no sun He whispered thru the trees Once Upon A Time causing the leaves to rustle and shake making me lose direction         I was lost forget I was civilized Sense[s] turned savage I moved against him stealing his story with friction and cannibal drums Quick breath                         words without manners devouring his pallet till the colors ran together wet and undistinguished He became lightening then heavy pulses of electric and heat swallowed I was thunder

I Once Was A Thief
I saw madness in his hands shaped like a path straight to me straight thru me I pretended I was shy He thought he knew me Fingers stained primary colors                                he'd told this story before and bold strokes, he painted his home Across my skin a wilderness awakened while my eyes closed                  to heat with no sun He whispered thru the trees Once Upon A Time causing the leaves to rustle and shake making me lose direction         I was lost forget I was civilized Sense[s] turned savage I moved against him stealing his story with friction and cannibal drums Quick breath                         words without manners devouring his pallet till the colors ran together wet and undistinguished He became lightening then heavy pulses of electric and heat swallowed I was thunder
