Straighforward Sassafras

straightforward sassafras
spicy surprise
give it to me hotter
i will return much more than the favor

the journeys we have made to get here
has had its bumps in the road
we spun till nauseatingly dizzy
we rolled till hoarse and out of our minds
we landed on the anvil of an almost broken union
we arrived at a paradise we never realized was lost at sea
we swatted the sun dead
we revitalized the moon alive
we settled for less
we traveled for more
we froze near to death on the ice of silence
we found medicinal bliss in the warm hot tub of social emotion
a soft peck to wet, passionate kisses have lead us to here....

straightforward sassafras
spicy surprise
give it to me sweet and sticky
i will adjourn with what you love to savor
