Drop Me Off

Drop me off on an island where coconuts dangle sweetly where the ghost of lost love pirouettes on a moon kissed beach A hut made of palm leaves is all i need a jug band with a chorus of gulls and blue crabs on the strings for the first time in a long while i'll take the lead seduce the siren's that sit smugly upon the reefs of the mind Drop me off on an island away from war and abortion.. where golden fillets glitter delightfully on palm leaf plates where shadows slide over shoals fanning silver edged chapters to the drum beat of gentle fates Drop me off on an island before its to late before my soul turns gull throated white where the stars etch the years into the heart of the loneliest night Drop me off on an island had my fill of wild fires and goblins drop me off on an island the furthest one from the mainland.. far from the wreckage of man's bloody muzzled carnival ride.
