above screams, 
I became a 
slave to my 
own silence, 
chained by 
granite wings of 
masked butterflies, 
who...

and it's not that big a deal
to be an Oracle either

so much is kept from us
to lessen disruption is the scam
while time disrupts...

Like when the day faints, the stars shine

no reason to think of war.
Thought I saw someone I knew,

His wife of fifty years had passed.

24 hours to live…I need to hurry and come up with a plan
	It’s only right to “worry” because I haven’t been half the man

Seems I’ve reminisced 
The feel
Of a home cooked meal
Ducking the pleasures 
Of a sainted veil

For ‘Mr Keys’ would come at nine

This garden where the roses grew
In memory...

Took a deep breath of the crisp cold air
Relaxed my shoulders, trying to hide
Deep feelings I had buried inside

Entering the room hoping to escape
The audience I knew I had to...
