Trying to teach you that can't is a broken spell,

a collection of words smothered in a fist,

deprived of touching can, before its magic had its knell,

The progenitors of these phrases drown in its graces,

they become the it of their own undoing,

husband and wife to guttural utterances,

Cloaked is the mirror with a window on full display,

smiling through your reflection, praying through convection,

seeking the angel's wings buried in the ground,

It's all dirt beneath their lips,

give them a spear they fancy it a fork,

a hook for their purposes,

There is no can't besides what is in there eyes,

There is no can't and above the bird flies,

There is no can't and here we find ourselves in our minds,

The law to them is of designs,

the life is what they inscribe,

there is no can't, but they can't.
