devil in a tree - 11/1/2006

Listen

there's a devil
in the tree
all ancient eyes
and teeth
and it's been in there
since the beginning
it watches
and it waits
and it plots
your despair
and your pain
all that is wrong
in your world
is wrong
because of that devil
in that tree
sometimes I shiver
because it's looking
at you
and sometimes
I shiver
for me
