the worthy have been known to fight for it
but
im no longer on the battlefield of love
its an easy glide down river
and i dip my hands through the water coaxing it to warm and nourish
those that ive cared for
watch my old friends drink from the banks
current of wine and honey
i want to share in this raising of the white flag
with pride
and if i could sit down to coffee with one old ghost
itd be you, sister
your pale skin stretched
and glowing like a chinese lantern
over those all too knowing eyes.
toss meaning to the northern lights now
and you and i together, girl, will never fade
clicking heels on tile till our feet bleed
dance the shoes to pieces
and carry on
