Harmony Green's blog! This blog highlights the music and poetic, liquid lyrics of Dan Fogelberg. I listen to a shuffled song on my iPod and write an inspired piece from that. The song is listed under 'labels' at the bottom of each entry. Enjoy!

Grow An Escape
Two steps forward
four steps back
Dancing with the devil
alive only in your
own head
The cage is only empty
when you leave
it
fully
Your inner devil gets off
on your
allowance
of deep lack
Heart so hard and cold
Makes a lovely paperweight
Controlling the future
Eating the past
Constricting any movement
now
Seeking peace in a place
so full of noise
With your frozen freedom you
maniacally masturbate
As the devil laughs and lurks
in your deepest soul spaces
He ain't real....there are no horns of
flaming red
Get off the market scale
Return to the deep and delicious
soil of your soul garden
Grow an escape from your darkly
romanced cages
Devil loses, freedom wins
In a gamble of fury and fate
No chains, no keys turning and
clicking in the lock
There is no cage, no key,
no clock
Time stands still for you
It is never too late
Just push a bit on the forged iron
door
There is no devil standing sentry
Once the space presents as the door
opens
A decision is made in a moment
golden
Before you know it, when you turn
your gaze around
You will be standing in your
garden green
You will be free!!
