Vampires, Part Two a Continuation
Useless as today’s pile up of spent money
Don’t do the way of indentured slaves
What we have always known is true for some
How would you like to meet your smiling face
Such a opportunity to connect, to be new
What a glorious gift, to start anew, be somebody else
Trashing around in this body, give it some thought
The courage of many is your gift, embrace it.
Your gift from all who have drunk from the well
Drunk with life, drunk from life, what's the difference?
Who can fly fire and not burn, not fall?
Who can understand why the waves swallow the sand?
Embrace it as you would embrace a lover,
Your innermost needs cry for release
The sweat masks your face, wringing wet
hopple hopping with all your unspecified needs,
a laundry list of needs
Washed, tossed, flimsy flimsy hopple hopper
Do you know why you were born?
Will you ever learn
You have been instructed, shown the way
Thank you for your participation
for what had to be done
