The Daemon Song
I know You are there in the dark water, not quite dead, next to me
I know what You're feeling, I can see Your daemon
I smell You coming; You are my prey; into-me-You I’m steadily reeling
The urban fox streaks a sneak of red and white around the edges of the night;
A shadow loyally appearing, yellow eyes mark You both hiding and stealing
Emperor, sweet prince, bastard, half-breed; You hate Your fleshy progenitors
But we all need trees; so, spinning gold into straw and with that another world I’ll
start weaving
Shove Your claws into the earth like plugs or roots to start the healing

Planning Phase
I see You sitting there on the wall
Next to the institution, staring hard down at the ground
Are You daydreaming, or planning the revolution?
Sometimes I see You singing, praying out loud for restitution
You don’t seem to find joy today in the late midsummer sun
You once picked flowers and made them into a fragile crown
Now You're sitting on the wall next to the institution
Sometimes muttering, sometimes crying, sometimes howling long and loud!
