The guards at the palace gate

THE GUARDS AT THE PALACE GATE (D G D G B E)

 


Slipped away. Could you hear? What did they say? Was it sincere?

It’s not good. It’s not safe. This fear is man-made.

My heart knows nothing. But it feels like something.

All these guards at the palace gate just make my neck ache.

 

This is just an introduction to a book that won’t be written.

If you can’t read my writing I will leave burnt CD with the guards at the palace gate.
