"Take a good look and Tell me who it is That I am." I do not see The eyes of hazel-green I see pits I see chasms I see soulless windows The hair of fiery bronze I see rats tails I see dishevelled wisps I see dirt, mud and grease The straight nose I see the lumps I see the blackheads that could inhale you I see a witches crook The mouth I see thin worms stretched I see steel fences, electric, unyielding and snapping shut at intruders I see razor-like daggers "Take a good look and Tell me who it is That I am." You see me now. You know who I am. You know what I am.

A Good Look
"Take a good look and Tell me who it is That I am." I do not see The eyes of hazel-green I see pits I see chasms I see soulless windows The hair of fiery bronze I see rats tails I see dishevelled wisps I see dirt, mud and grease The straight nose I see the lumps I see the blackheads that could inhale you I see a witches crook The mouth I see thin worms stretched I see steel fences, electric, unyielding and snapping shut at intruders I see razor-like daggers "Take a good look and Tell me who it is That I am." You see me now. You know who I am. You know what I am.
Quote is from first aid kit.... a song that I can't remember now!
