Sirens
June 7, 2023
Who to turn to?
Who to flee to?
Who is my harbor?
All these fork-tongued sirens.
Lies as pretty as sirens,
Flowing as fast as rivers,
Clover my eyes,
Warm lies for my solace.
Who wields the sword?
Who’s my shield?
Am I in the palm of your hand?
Ah, my back hurts.
Thorn or bud,
How do I tell?
My eyes are shut,
With your pretty lies.
Should I soar or sit,
Did I tie myself to you,
Or do you wield my leash,
My hands are burning.
I can’t hear the truth,
Don’t want to feel the icy truth,
Tell me another one,
I’m drunk on your cordial lies.
