Content in a cornered part of the far reaches of France Where the gypsies naked prance and hastily dance Stars shine down on the groups of merry peasants Who talk love tell and pluck soon to be dead pheasants Here the children tell of monsters mixed to death with lore Milk pours from every cow and food grows more and more Rocks forget themselves underneath a bubbling river bed No one cries for here no one is beckoned to the river of the dead Illusions fortify their eyes and their beating red hearts Cars are parked for the horses as their only means to start On adventures to moon lit mortuaries candle lit dinner parties Dancing with ghosts sporting their finest being quite flirty I envisioned myself beneath the elm tree reading and writing Listening to no sounds of husband and wife fighting Some may call this place eden heaven or even impossible But I see it as a world hopeful to soon be chronicled

Soon To Be
Content in a cornered part of the far reaches of France Where the gypsies naked prance and hastily dance Stars shine down on the groups of merry peasants Who talk love tell and pluck soon to be dead pheasants Here the children tell of monsters mixed to death with lore Milk pours from every cow and food grows more and more Rocks forget themselves underneath a bubbling river bed No one cries for here no one is beckoned to the river of the dead Illusions fortify their eyes and their beating red hearts Cars are parked for the horses as their only means to start On adventures to moon lit mortuaries candle lit dinner parties Dancing with ghosts sporting their finest being quite flirty I envisioned myself beneath the elm tree reading and writing Listening to no sounds of husband and wife fighting Some may call this place eden heaven or even impossible But I see it as a world hopeful to soon be chronicled
