| "Paper Wings" Written By DeeDee Shrogin Like a thousand stars All shining down on me Eyes entranced and fixed Trying to penetrate and be Circling like the wolves Tangeled fingers poking holes Seeping like the seives Words falling sharp and growing dull Telling of your plan How to fix this broken me Yelling, shouting hands Taking all that makes me free Screaming silent gestures Empty are your words Whispers to my shouts I break the walls that you lord Taking back the sharpened tongue That you pretend to hold Hanging from the highest rung I throw it hard and watch it fold I spread my wings of paper And I go. |
