Come on Poet - Slow Club

Oh they don’t know you

and you’re wading deeper

than you know

and when a cub becomes a fighter

he takes his lead from an elder

who has so much more room to grow

Come on poet

show us what you know then

Did you think it was over

'cos so did I

I can’t take on the tiger while I’m still this child

and if something was worth saving I’d have thought we’d try

it’s getting so hard to remember to be fair and kind

But it’s been a long time

and I’m still in your life

Calling out like a ranger

looking for a bone to break

and your eyes are bigger than I’m used to
