Deep Sleep and a Long Night Ii

Deep sleep and long nights ii

Times are mine
Times' fly like birds in the sky,
Assembled in flocks
A school of fishes be learning the truth,
Girls with friends...
And boys with gangs...
Riddles to answers,
Answers to confessions
Confessions nothing but planned conversations,
From deep speeches to death,
A red tongue...and chicks pumped up 
The frozen truth...and explosive lies,
Face blew up, no antibiotics
No chillers and re-fillers,
Just antidotes but no venom
No snakes just wolves:
howling at the moon,
A deep sleep and a long night.
