come and eat, friends
you soaked in the blood of your peers
you bruised at the hands of your keepers
sit and eat, feast at my table
let go of your daily fears
for a moment, just for a while
allow yourself this time
and join me for tea
a safe spot with you and me
my friends, for now
while times are calm
and friendship heals our constant qualm
eat, be merry, love one each other
it's nothing much in colder climes
when smiles are all the sutures we have
and the only pain killers I have are words and rhymes
I only have kisses for your bruises
and food for a heart sorrowed
what we gain now, tomorrow loses
and all we own is borrowed
