dragonfly (a song i wrote)

upside down 

on a string

in the wind 

is my soul 

swaying steady

inside out

is the sound

of my wrath 

in my ears 

white hot and heavy

listen close

is he close?

lightning strikes 

and the thunder bellows 

red nose

from the bite 

of the cold 

in your eyes 

you've been drinking 

man made 

hurricane 

smashing plates 

on the floor

of the kitchen 

won't you reap 

what you sow

pluck the weeds

before they get the chance to grow 

dragonfly 

how'd you fall

from a sky 

clear and blue 

let me help 

break your fall 

down to hell 

cradle you

won't you reap 

what you sow

pluck the weeds

before they get the chance to grow
