In League With Others
I am in league with the roses,
Petals askew in a scarlet conspiracy
Oh I am in league with the roses,
Swaying along in this lover’s confederacy;
I’m in league with the devils,
A mob together raging alight
I’m in league with the devils,
Our very breaths fanning our damned plight;
And with the clouds I have marched abreast,
Bringing storm and heavens in tow
For amongst the clouds I have marched abreast,
Purpose seeded in the sky to grow;
I am a hire sword in league with grander designs,
Through all of which I am never prone
Yes, I am a hireling in league with foreign designs,
Happy that I am never still to stand alone.
