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.
