“Like the knife,” she said

Sharper sight for Darker light

She can spell it out for me

Just when I thought the violence was over

Just when the tools arrive

Just when the fog fled the jungle

a box of hammers for your yet-to-be-broken smile

The Return of Our

Original Hero

the only one without any obligation to any moon

screaming Metal and green Glow

I haven’t even met the enemy

I hope I don’t build him.

Assuming the fight is real at all

But no one will make it through

without us

and no one can afford the cost

if we never
