Who will we let die my love
In darkness neath the torrential rain

Of bombs





And the screams of hungry children ?

:::

( yes my love

I've got to know )

•                         •

It looks like a pretty suburban street

But it's really a path thru the graveyard

Where the ghosts and the politicians

Meet again

( one last time )

:///:                                                    

Most of us are of the Dead

::

We are only phantoms

holograms

Looking like men



oh my love I knew you when

You wore your flesh like a heavenly

Bouquet

And your dreams were the envy  

Of the gods

And Magic was the normal

Way we lived

//

//

Still
We pretend !

                                                     ( Still ! )

••                                                            ­                      

Dark skin

Tragic shape

The women

Up and down and all around

••

step by step thru the tragedy

//

Oh my love your sweetness still
Can bring the life back if you'd dare

Reveal exactly who you are

And bare your breast to each child's eye

And to each soul reveal your heart

//

...... If and when

and if and when you bare your light

Know ( of course )

I shall be there
