It’s not the grey but the yellow we adorn
And not really the heart but thoughts we explore
And so we flit and flicker and fondle
Fingers ruffle the water of our shores
Knowing the storms will wet our face
Yesterday’s trace our failure and glory
The campfire forces forest shadows to obey
Noises in the dark begin beckoning us, its prey
White gas lantern search for glow back eyes
But it’s the dark calling out our little white lies
Our minds unadulterated pigs
Eat defenseless swine only one side of us shines
The hungry wolf becomes the hunted prey
We protect the bunnies at all cost in the day
But nocturne’s left trails of their dung
On two fast feet we are on the run
Our guns braver than all or anyone
We have our needs, our deeds we’ve done
Society sews the cloths we wear
But inside death lingers everywhere
I am unabashed and unashamed
Nature has underwritten my name
And although you may not think so
This secret can unfurl in your soul
As black is dark in Nighttime Park
A spark will ignite your hidden woes
