Sunday:Dark water draining north, the heat |
|
Swells and bursts like plague. |
|
Sunday:Ever-so-faint slow tambourine |
|
Glides onward toward the grave. |
|
Who drew the line? |
|
Who drew the line between you and me? |
|
Who drew the linethat everyone sees? |
|
Darling,Lake |
|
Pontchartrain is haunted: |
|
Bones without names, photographs framed in reeds. |
|
Darling,What blood our veins are holding. |
|
The overpass frozen, fires ablaze at sea. |
|
Who drew the line? |
|
Who drew the line that cuts to the skin, buries me in? |
|
Tell me who drew the line. |
|
Darling, don't close your eyes.(Lie as darkness hardens.Lie of our reunion.Oh lie if God is sleeping.Oh I believe you now.) |
|
Darling,Lake |
|
Pontchartrain will cradle me,and all you left behind. |
|
Listen:Ever-so-faint slow tambourineis marching back through time. |
