Fire and Steel and Stardust
Eyes of fire and steel
A heart full
The rhythm going numb
A boy cries a year younger
Beside me
And a year younger
Than I was -
Except me,
It is cruel for any body
To feel the longing
Or the falling -
Down - the rabbit hole
Into a field of prairie smoke
I'm in a field of prairie smoke -
And it's velvet, it's lavender sweet
In my dreams,
Your teeth are made of rubber
And when we kiss, they dissolve
Like jelly onto hot - my tongue is hot
It’s ok for me to feel it
Because I am made of fire
And steel and all the stardust
That was taken by the void
Too early
Sucked into a void
Too early
