The best gifts come from
an intention that is told as a version
of a beautiful story manifested
At first, it's covered in mystery
gold filagree and clove
dream and tear stained in bright color
when the shadow of death walks in,
there's a bright line of drunken song
the mercy of the blues won't cancel
the curse of knowing ahead of time
that letting that hate flow past
is gonna make it hit the real target faster
however sad that line of life is
damn the wolves sometimes
their howling that calls the beasts
walk softly, big sticks
call it what it is
try not to kill the messenger
she's more dangerous in the dark
