Call me a vixen,
When I am a swan,
Selling my feathers,
Soon to be gone.

My feathers are red,
Like no other's,
Trapped in my head,
Two-faced lovers.

My feathers are sold,
Only skin is shown,
Grey like it's old,
My feathers, I mourn.

They point and they jeer,
"Fox", they spit,
The words I hear,
Words never miss.

I sew a fleece,
With patches of soul,
To keep my sick beast,
Safe and warm.

The sickness,
Takes over,
True dictator,
Death of a lover.

Feathers on the ground,
Tears down my face,
Soft sound,
Nothing but grey.
