(The Parlour) Intoxicated with LifeA Poem by John HolmesDon't you feel it the Thunder in your mind The Howling wind in your soul you just can't help but dance to a tune you know not but by the Devil it feels right you should Sing in the trees Swim in the Somme Why don't you kiss a stranger? With Drums in your heart sending mailed knights to a far flung heaven Don't you feel it? the call of the Earth and by gone ages? Don't you just want to feel the desert sand in your hair? As surly do you taste the temptation of my Lips You panic and threat I am meek I am weak Nervermore! You're Iron and Bone your blood is the fire of Stars as surly as your eyes are my temptation you're life and you're in my veins
