Dealing with animals


whooing with owls

will have you howling with the wolves

soaring with the eagles

will make you the little birdy that could

but walking with the humans

will only make you wish death

but love life

so  you'll cope and enjoy the rest.

 

sleeping with the dogs

will have you wake up with the fleas

cuddleing with cats

will bring you to your knees

but down deep you love it

because that ground is so wet and warm

the only better feling is the sky

and the sounds of the storm.

 

loveing like the doves

will make you a heartless snake

but hunting like a shark

will only make you the bait

and your moment will disapear

and love just be another wisper in your ear

while down deep you know you wish 

wish you wouldve fished, and earned that kiss.

 

walking like a shadow

will have you end up like me

poetic justice has no mercy on thee

and your existance is free

but the worlds kindnesss is a cost you must pay

so you must be willing to sacrifice and kill

like an animaal will.

 

the words are just the truth

and mmemoirs of the things i feel

sorry for the things ive done

and thats the deal

because never right my wongs

unless i write them down for real
