I Get You

A jagged piece of metal keeps
 The world out with a twist, we
 Descend step by step
 I nearly trip
 A scratchy glove encompasses my wrist
 The warmest grasp
 Our fingers in a twist
 I grab your hand
 Hold onto it like a rein
 We travel miles
 Or turn onto Avenue 8
 Our world is violent
 Overgrown with fear and hatred
 You can try to carve your own space
 For somebody louder to just take anyway
 But I get you
 Do you get me too
 Because I want to
 Do you too?
 Now I've found a soft
 Now I've found a soft clay
 Now I've found a soft clay spot to nest in
 Now I've found a soft clay spot to nest
 Now I've found a soft clay spot too
