Trotting about on desert’s sands
shooting flaming arrows with his hands,
into the dark and dreary air
he might start a fire up there.
Above the heavens
arrows will fly
centaurs half horse, half guy.
Shooting with passion from his heart
that’s defiantly the man part.
Surrounded in anger I must say
he’s taking a break today,
from this world of chaos
he want to show the world who is boss.
Rising up on his hind legs
for love this centaurs begs.
Passion
