IN MY LONG ARMS

you have immunity

from the world outside

in my long arms

an eternity

to be inside

whose chaos calms

the uncertainty

of massed divide

and rule's fake charms

surrounding each maverick's tree

so fates collide

amongst oasis palms.

love is our impunity

side by side

in smokey-spoken lips balms

the revolution rises rapidly

as it's oppressed tide

takes up arms.
