It is neither fair nor reasonable to expect sadness | |
To confine itself to it's causes. like a river in flood, | |
When it subsides and the drowned bodies of | |
Animals have been deposited in the treetops, there is | |
Another kind of damage that takes place beyond the torrent. | |
At first, it seemed as though she had only left | |
The room to go into the garden and had been delayed by stray | |
Chickens in the corn. then he had thought she might | |
Have eloped with the rodeo-boy from the neighbouring | |
Property but it wasn't till one afternoon, when he | |
Had heard guitar playing coming from her room and | |
Had rushed upstairs to confront her and had seen | |
That it was only the wind in the curtains brushing | |
Against the open strings, that he finally knew she | |
Wasn't coming back. he had dealt with the deluge alright | |
But the watermark of her leaving was still quite visible. | |
He had resorted to the compass then, thinking that | |
Geography might rescue him but after one week in the | |
Victorian alps he came back north, realising that snow which | |
He had never seen before, was only frozen water. | |
I'll take you to hollywood | |
I'll take you to mexico | |
I'll take you anywhere the | |
River of money flows. | |
I'll take you to hollywood | |
I'll take you to mexico | |
I'll take you anywhere the | |
River of money flows. | |
But was it really possible for him to cope with the | |
Magnitude of her absence? the snow had failed him. | |
Bottles had almost emptied themselves without effect. | |
The television, a samaritan during other tribulations, had | |
Been repossessed. she had left her travelling clock | |
Though thinking it incapable of funcitioning in | |
Another time-zone; so the long vacant days of expensive sunlight | |
Were filled with the sound of her minutes, with the measuring of | |
Her hours. |
