In the Wilderness

In the midst of spacious green fields, the green eyes watch & wait They've planted seeds of discord that can't yield, for they were sown with seething hate Watch for the clever snakes in tall grass looking to strike before you're warned Expose wolves in sheep's clothing in a flash, as they can't hide once they're shorn We're torn between forces of dark & light battling for our very souls It's hard to maintain your cool in this heated fight even if your emotions turn cold The victor will be the one that's fed the most, as both sides want to eat I hope I continue to be a most gracious host in the presence of a beast
