random observation

...in lieu of actually having time to be on LJ and reply to lovely comments and read and comment on lovely stories I'm behind on:

If The Slave Breakers were a TV series, I think I would like this song to play over the opening credits.

I'm an angel dark, darker than loam
Come to steer your runaway home
I'm a moonbeam monkey on spec
Come to bring your strange kid back

No one saw him gimpy going round the bend
And no one but me knows the stuff it takes to mend him
I will get him back on the right track
I will bring your strange kid back

He saw something there, something in the ice
Sees it still when he closes his eyes
He's not talking, just taking it alone
I will bring his story home

He's not talking, just taking it alone
He's a good boy, your good son
I'm an angel dark, darker than loam
Come to bring your strange kid home

I will bring your strange kid home
