Sometimes she forgets
How beautiful her tail is
Often she doesn’t remember
How strong her tail is
Every time she looks back
Every time she looks down
To her very tail
Sam the Septopus is there
Every time
He’s there

Back off
As I proceed
I’m going to shine
Until you’re blind

I fall
For dynasties
I fall
Through a backward stream of despondencies
You caught me
Out of nowhere
You hug me
And swear to never let me fall again

Piercing winds
Filthy air
You think you can get me down
You think you can scare me out
Pebbles round and round
Dried leaves up and down
You think I’ll get weak
You think I’ll give up
If someone needs to die down
That would be you, not me
You’re doomed to stay at most a sandstorm
I’m destined to win and break free

My kite is so high
It’s no longer visible
So much of the string
Has been let go of
By my pride
The end is near
Why didn’t I pay more regard
To how beautiful my kite is
Why did I lose so much string
To the winds
To the unknown
It’s cutting into my skin
Pain is not in my hand
Pain is in my regretful heart

Dashing eyes
Striking smile
Strong arms
Hunky figure
A sharp vision
A pumping heart
The dragon man possesses the world
The dragon man gives me whirls
He touched the land and met me
He took off for his dear Anthony

You’re my apple
You’re my cup of tea
You’re my everything
Nothing else ever made me so me
Yet after this friendly hug
After this friendly kiss
I know you’ll go back to his arms
I know you’ll never belong with me

My wings
Feathers of the rainbow
Fire red, tangerine, bright yellow
Fresh lime, indigo, intoxicating purple
Spread wide
To the walls
My crown
Beams of the sun
Glowing, splashy, intricate
Quartz, citrine, marcasite
Stands tall
To the ceiling
I am the sun of the hall
I am the heroine for all

Take me to paradise
Somewhere far away
Show me the reddest apple
Enlighten me through a therapeutic highway
