Until then

My Cape

Like the land in the ocean

Grasped tightly in the hand

When time has already told

You can't hold onto sand

Pouncing around, place to place

I am a feral cat

I don't want your house, no thanks

Out of my habitat

I appreciate the gesture

But this is not my home

Couldn't tell you where that is

I really like to roam

I go where my tail takes me

Journeying across the seas

Jumping through the roaring waves

A dolphin in the breeze

Like a rose I wilt inside

I need the sun like air

Spirit needs enlightenment

Like France needed Voltaire

My life is one adventure

There are no limits here

Strutting around the world

Jaunting through atmosphere

Confine this hawk to a cage

My wings are my escape

I don't need to be batman

When my mind is my cape
