Take his hand. He'll lead you in. Dealer of ******. Seller of sin. Greet the spots and tombstone eyes. The peddler of ironic lies. Curse the ***** that came with his gift. That little light fix, that will give you a lift. Trapped by the twister called Mister or Miss. The long and short of the thrill. Will steal your life. Maybe ****. Never did it. Could have done. Somewhere in my heart commonsense won. Before you sit and preach from on high. Think once, think twice. I was lucky. There for the grace of god go I. (c) Livvi MMXV
