Wrapped in the wings of a sparrow

Beak is as sharp as an arrow

Sings in a whispering whistle

Sleeps in the ivy and thistle

Owls out swooping and howling

Deep in the midnight a-prowling

Mama, the scream of the eagle

Sucking the juice from the apple

Eating the seeds of the apple

Bearing the tree of the apple

Trapped in the weeds like a scarecrow

Stuck to the wind like Velcro

Boy chasing after to stall her

I wish I'd have spoken to call her

Before she found fabric to shawl her

Breasts bound and burdened with fiber

That she has the poison inside her

She talks to snakes and they guide her

She has the poison inside her

She talks to snakes and they guide her
