The Famous Fable Maker

It was the flight of the famous fable maker That changed my story’s life That dropped me out into the world And showed me what its like But there’s so much to see inside this wilted quilt time Like an hidden Mayan Ruin, like a ruin in my mind That stands for udder loneliness That stands for being blind And I can see that something’s Not quite right And I can see that something’s Took my eyes And locked them up inside their darkened cage Left to wonder, loose themselves inside their dusty maze But there’s so much to seem inside this wilted quilt of time Like a hidden Mayan Ruin, that I ruined in my mind And it stands for a brother’s loneliness It stands still in time And I can see that something’s Gone so wrong And I can be that someone’s Lovely song But it was the flight of the famous fable maker That lay my feet in stride That introduced me to that girl And made sure that we'd collide So we'd see each other's beauties there Inside this wilted quilt of time Where we sat and spoke of selfless dreams Where we sat and spoke our crimes And wept against each other's soaking shoulders As we wept and drank our wine But I can see that she has Lost her way And I could see that there's Nothing left to say But in the morning we woke inside a daisy field Out in the a place I've never been That had a giant, dome-ish, hazy shield That seemed to protect everything And kept this place in perfect view Kept it hanging on a string And With my love in my heart And my heart in my hand It's a brand new start In a brand new land But I can see that something's Different here Intentionally beauty, That’s been untouched for years.
