All in a Rage

Monday, August 15th, 2011

-I cannot help you
When you come again
Lying in my hedgerow
Lying in my bed
And I wish I didn’t love you
And I long – at your command -

Blue lines flash in summer heat
The vigilante’s out on the street
Footstep echo, no street lights

(willcox/sidelnyc)
I cut the sky with a hopeless cry

I feel dreadfully torn
Like a new-born
Deep unrest beneath the

Stand before it all
And roar the door
Before you grew from a seed...
