this one this man wants me-- he told me so, no disbelief. No hesitance within his voice- as if he never had a choice-- eyes in steady, steely, gaze... unwavering (he sang my name.) This one loves me I am sure. I pay the price-- snake oil, procured... |

Ya don't go out in the desert without your snake boots on Ya don't lay down on the railway tracks until the train has gone. Ya don't swim out in deep water with your pockets full of stones. Ya don't fall deep into loving if there's snake oil on your bones. Just cause I don't want ya to get hurt Celeste.....but hey! go get'em tigeress! |

this one creates many images, both good and not so. It is a like a shaman ritual, a vision and you know how I feel about visions lately. Hope the desert has brought you something beautiful. "Build a man a fire, he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire and he'll be warm for the rest of his life". Terry Pratchett |
