Down on the farm
done with the scene
music unthinkable
fish in the sea
Mix of cloud
sunshine rain
water and soil
fire and space
It’s not the first matter of fact
among the last
moments like
grains of sand
Omega band
World exploding
internet down
growing some verses
tilling the ground
It’s not the first matter of fact
among the last
moments like
grains of sand

Fluorescent light
here we are again
at the fork in the road
to make your turn
Floating hovering
it is now
now is the time
peace found
Peace found, peace found
She comes around
a beacon of the night
to sing your love
and set her free
Lessons
learned this time
another harvest moon
green eyed
Floating hovering
it is now
now is the time
peace found
Peace found, peace found

Silver Sea

All good things must
must come to an end
and they come around
come back around again
Like a big, big wheel
like a wheel of history
The circles in a giant tree
the ripples in a silver sea
Sometimes there’s a boat you’re on
that sails you from the breaking dawn
while I think of you
and meditate on you
All good things must end
and come back around again
The circles in a giant tree
the ripples in a silver sea

On Your Way Home

Back up to the wall
you’re lucky you broke the fall
wind blowing through the trees
the air is heavy but you can breathe
On your way home
you passed a train
going out to a place
but you did not take that train
The band plays for the dead
reveling in a dream
forgotten spirits dance and sing
if only for a moment in peace

The Picture is Gigantic
05:11
|

The picture
is gigantic
but familiar
like deep dark well
And out of this place
comes little mercy
and from the dream
comes little sleep
Can a tree rise
up from ashes
and branch outward
one hundred summers?
Dogs and sirens
howl in the distance
and the pang of hope
fades uncertain
The picture
is gigantic
but familiar
like deep dark well
