Tolerance for a short time

When did a touch, a flutter of eyelids affect a man

Well from the grounds of stupidity

We've always been the same

We don't understand women

Self-protection I assume

And sleep under tables with dogs

Flees I presume

To acknowledge how valuable

Sleep can sometimes be

When you are earning and proving

Thanks for the sym-metry

Tiger tiger where's the flame

Coming on my back

Yes I can feel the heat

and scars a matter of pride,

clatter, clatter, clack

Run down my back

For I'm the will of everyone

The one who'se 'always there'

Always the father of every child

That needs someone to adopt that stare

Yes I am the father of everyone

they call 'Desire'

Of what or when or whatever

The glare

Is a smile

open

wide

and no

resemblance

to me

I really liked this...

‘I want to swim away
but don’t know how
sometimes it feels
just like I’m falling
in the ocean’
