The Dig Dig the wasteland of your mind And find beneath a fossil rind A skull of bone now turned to stone That once had built a velvet throne That once had held a primal dove A heart that swelled of vestige love A core that built a human ridge An Eden with a rainbows bridge And though this world has long since past The thought of it will ever last Above those changes in the grime To last until the end of time For where once life had stirred within It stays a field that’s past the skin Weaves a web of brandy prime A shroud that stays forever’s time So make your temple spirits zone And you will never be alone |

That once had held a primal dove A heart that swelled of vestige love A core that built a human ridge An Eden with a rainbows bridge absolutely beautiful!!! Hey Sy, how are you? Hope you had a tremendous Birthday Happy Weekend |

I think the first three lines said it all. I like it. And I said to the devil, "You better leave my spleen alone." |

I don't know about you but this line about sums up my daily wish ... It stays a field that's past the skin If and when I go, I'll still be around On a boyfriend's shoulder I will be found. Let any young man hurt a girl of mine, He's find himself in the devil's line.  |
