“Swords in My Hands”
War paths fade
when she says
Play Misty for Me
It’s so very easy
hold two swords
drop the Ball and glass slippers
The smile is full freedom
he says, do it again
Victory dance and mean it
Taken in this moment
one sword
cuts the zumanity ropes
some strange romance;
he says, do it again
I’ll watch you win
begin
Victory dance
begin
she is calling It in,
ALL in,
by Her Self
LIFE
body in full flight
against Blue Sky
(LadyLabyrinth / 2021)

“This house is like Russia,
with eyes cold and gray.
You got me movin' in a circle.
I dyed my hair red today.
I just want a little passion
to hold me in the dark.
I know I've got some magic buried,
buried deep in my heart, yeah….
But my priest says,
You aint saving no souls…
My father says,
"You ain't making any money."
My doctor says,
"You just took it to the limit.
And here I stand,
with this sword in my hand...
You can say it one more time
What you don't like
Let me hear it one more time
Then have a seat
while I take to the sky,
take to the sky...
...
This house is like Russia
with eyes cold and gray"
