It Takes Two
A Murder In Central Park
They both grew together
The small girl and her bird
To say that they were tethered
I know may sound a bit absurd
But the connection that they shared
Sure, was eerie at its best
I swear that bird could hear
Her thoughts and heartbeat in her chest
He presented her with gifts
Some were shiny, some were old
He built for her a nest
Brought her “hot” silver and gold
If she were ever to meet danger
He would be there to defend her
He protected her from strangers
One day covering her in feathers
When he finished, she undoubtedly resembled the raven
Till it was difficult to tell the two apart
They flew off like soaring jets, into the bright blue heavens
Swooping and diving folks in Central Park
Now they spend their days out soaring
Flying and plotting plans together
All the members they will be adding
To their new humanly formed murder

Bruce Lee and The God of War: Kuan Ti
It starts with love.. The Power to the God Of War and Wealth Walk into a Chinese restaurant (even in Oklahoma, USA), a Chinese police station, a kung fu martial arts studio or even a Chinese temple and you often see a red faced warrior holding a heavy quan-do (spear like weapon).
