Two Trees

You give it out

You give it all

But don’t collapse into me
Not just yet

I may be a hammock

You can swing there for a time

But we need two trees

To climb

We need two trees

on either side

Once we have two trees

Strong and tall

On which to tie the ends

To bind our souls

Only then will we

Swing between them freely

Who Is The Enemy?

We are elfins

But we are in a war zone

I’m the Resistance

Or along those lines

Dressed up like nuns

One minute we are rescuing them the

Next it is me who needs rescuing

I have a little money box

Under my robe

Stealthy as can be but

I don’t see the enemy

Lay low lay low

No-where else to go

The enemy is still inside

Not you, but me
