A Cage To Hold My Dreams
Invasion
Give me the warlike bluster of your everything
The rage of your inner fire
I have no time for limp tenderness, nor an endless
Daisychain of quiet, bloodless tomorrows.
Who ever surrenders territory to an appeaser ?
I am naked land, eager to be furrowed.
I want excitement and disaster to be coiled
Around my pillow like hungry pythons
When you speak, let my skin be blackened by
The flames, let me see the knives
Flashing in your mind, let your teeth draw blood
From my groin. I want to be over-run
By an invader who doesn't understand mercy
I shall be disappointed if the worst that
you can do is shoot me down with honest gunfire.
