In a tornado of flags and smudged faces You carry a white rifle It twists and slithers around your neck Your torso Your legs Swift as a snake You're a blur of grey and black Barefoot and pale as dawn As papery and long as a willow tree Spinning and twirling Graceful and strong You dance amongst the women But you're stronger than most men Then in unision You all fall in a heap on the floor Legs twisted in your flags Completley still They eye of the storm has never been more beautiful

Eye of The Storm
In a tornado of flags and smudged faces You carry a white rifle It twists and slithers around your neck Your torso Your legs Swift as a snake You're a blur of grey and black Barefoot and pale as dawn As papery and long as a willow tree Spinning and twirling Graceful and strong You dance amongst the women But you're stronger than most men Then in unision You all fall in a heap on the floor Legs twisted in your flags Completley still They eye of the storm has never been more beautiful
