Cloistered in your American T.V. family dream
of homecoming queens and morals
and sanitary friends without sin
you are ... as solid as oak.
Though the deeper you, as yet,
is untouched by her mortal kin.
Our eyes meet ... and exchange
a seeker and his seen
an ingenue and a chaser of his dreams.
Every glimmer of the potential lover within you
talks to me where my magic
and the child wait against the night.
My sweet all-American princess
whose about to find the inner key
just let me be standing in your pathway
when you opt for crazy, wild and free.
