Bibber

Ooh good at last
Feel that flame
Licking at its heels
Coming into crystal 
And a morning cry
Then to slumber inward
For the day arise

Taking arms all
Walking into walls
Vowing no more bribing 
And a midnight fall
Into deep blue slumber
Into greying dawn
Into days of darkness
After all is calm

Weary waiting wanting
All forever be
Even in the darkest 
Of his midnight sea
Toss the coins asunder
Over till and wake
Counting in his slumber
How much more to take
