Everyday I think… no I dream

In absolutely wonder
Birds sing her song

Do You Care To Know My Name?No one knows my name

Yet you don’t care to know my name
I’m...

Politicians are mostly just an exaggerated versionPoliticians are mostly just an exaggerated version
of sellers and advertisers of lies, dubious,

UndertakersBiden ...et al put him in the bullseye
but it didn't go quite as planned,
His usefulness has finally been laid to rest,
The Hyenas are cackling and seeing red.

Slipping through shadows of old memories,
With silken steps, wrapped in secrets,
Gazing through the windows of our souls,
With emerald eyes and hidden mysteries.
You feel their presence in the quiet of the night,
When...
