Where the Niger meets the Nile
Occupation
Author
In the gene pool of eternity past
Spirits vie for flesh
In the drama of a woman's great need
Moments yearn for names

In this distaff proscenium I choke
Suffocate and die
The labels I thought I needed for love
Slapped on like a mask
Drain all vibrance from the time I spend with
My unfettered friends

In the boy's world of laughter, beer and song
Where love has no name
I could learn from them in the dark back room
Forego all explanations and just be
