Two Tears Among Us



fried bacon..
leave the pan hot,
cookies on side
thought of Spanish rice
help you think twice
one is the free shown forth to bleed
the other is a mighty flame
whom I am to explain
walk closer to me
lying beneath Autumn leaves

the other is like a midget far from their home
connect to the bone
lay beneath the perfume scent
both will meet in the middle
far to much to dribble

like a swap witch battered amidst the glue
borrowed basement pew
lay a hold the furnishing to disappear
dig deeper then ever before
hence the opened door
one is the wizard in the land of Oz
the other is a frog that turns into a prince
yet through the slight of hand
take note to where it all began
the Sunet Boulevard in shambles appear

tears will fold in its decorated mast
wipe the debris from your shoulder
in lasting fate make no mistake
both will meet together
pollished by the weather
light as a feather
