Splashing like children in play
Trailing off like a drunk
Excited to find anyone to listen to this spaced out non-sequiter
Tirades on God on the government
And on properly enforced morality
The band plays!
In the curiosity of possibility
And uncounted potential
That a child can see in each moment
And to which the creative strive for return
Ranging each note in rapid succession
To chase down
That little boy in the poppy field
Seeing a butterfly for the first time
With an ear to the unconquered
And a will for exploration
The band plays!
The bandit!
Splashing like children in play
Trailing off like a drunk
