Rabbit and Rose
The man they've come to see
Was born when the wind howled
And the sidewalk rolled out in long particulate waves
When the power went
And the night decided to burn its bridges
The man they've come to see
Has eyes that are two different colors
Two distantly burning stars
Blood and honey
Juxtaposed against the hum
Of electrical amplification
The man they've come to see
Straddles the distance between virtue and sin
Like a tightrope walker
He holds his guitar as if he were praying
To help him keep his balance
The man they've come to see
Has been this way before
Carrying a home on his back
As the dust settles
He wore a different skin then
But the songs are all the same
