How I wish I could surrender my soul;
Shed the clothes that become my skin;
See the liar that burns within my needing.
====================
“You’re sure you wanna do this?”
Tommy looked into Martin Mackenroy’s eyes, frowning in confusion. “I thought this didn’t mean anything?”
“It doesn’t,” the older man replied slowly, “but it’s not without its own inherent risks. It’s like pledging yerself t’ any seeker’s path. It’s that apple Eve gave Adam: once you take a bite, ya never really get the taste outta yer mouth. Ya can’t un-bite it. You understand, son?”
He hesitated, split with indecision and certainty. He knew it was a heavy burden he was about to take on, yet some part of him he’d never been aware of until now was restless and ready. His fingers were itching for the gleaming silver cuffs totally against his will.
Give me my chains.
He didn’t know where the words came from, but they felt right. Swallowing hard, he nodded, and extended his hands.
( “Let me have ‘em. I’m ready.” )
