Believe Me When
I Tell You This For True:
I Feel Bohemian
An' Ain't No Body Will Do.
I'm No Kerouac
But I'll Take You On A Journey.
Don't Get Takin' Aback
Or Call Your Attorney,
For Words So True.
In This Modern Age
What I Feel For You
Could Cause Outrage
Among Jaws A Saggin',
Tongues A Waggin',
Yellow, Orange, Red and Blue.
Fire Is Nothing To Hide;
Nor Is It New.
Prometheus Is Our Guide
Though His Liver Was Not Delivered Grilled
The Tear From A Talon Birth
Punctuous Shrills
Lancing Heaven and Earth...
This Is The Power,
The Punishment,
The Hour,
That Cements
All We Are Sent
To Devour.
This Is Us;
We Must Trust
That Which Will Betray:
The Burning Remaining Tomorrow
Was Born So Long Ago
Many, Many, Many Yesterdays.
