Of Monsters And Heroes And Men |
Stray cats |
With fish heads |
Feeding their litters |
Feral kids fight |
Over rats tailed |
From gutters |
Bookie mouth brokers |
Rotten fruit sellers |
Pickpockets ghost |
Through the crowd |
He climbs onto boxes |
By market stall traders |
Toothless and grey haired |
Thousand yard stare |
He had a vision |
Which broke the receiver |
Receiving transmission |
Surface to air |
Either way |
I’m in awe of you |
Either way |
We’ll survive |
We’ll survive |
Conjuring devils |
Angels and demons |
Only the children |
See shape to his tone |
Laughing and crying |
His song fell upon us We buried his treasure |
Along with the bones |
Arms held aloft |
A Y to the sky |
Innocent witness |
He testified |
Drained of his purpose |
He falls off the quayside |
Absorbed by the ocean |
Rolled by the tide |
Either way |
I’m in awe of you |
Either way |
We’ll survive |
Either way |
I’m in awe of you |
Either way |
We’ll survive |
We’ll survive |
Under the power lines |
Which crackle and sparkle |
Under the freeway |
Now mostly rubble |
The hungry still gather |
To fill up with stories |
Of monsters |
And heroes and men |
Under the stars |
Which prick us And call us Connect us to hope |
That perfection’s |
Within is Here on the ground |
We’re reckless |
And hopeless |
Damned by The slip of a pen |
Rambling poets |
Manic with vision |
We are the drivers yet |
We feel driven |
Moths in the moonlight |
Fooled by a flashlight |
Caught in a jam jar |
Gasping for air |
Rambling poets |
Manic with vision |
We are the drivers yet |
We feel driven |
Moths in the moonlight |
Fooled by a flashlight |
Caught in a jam jar |
Gasping for air |
Either way |
I’m in awe of you |
Either way |
We’ll survive |
We’ll survive |
