lyrics

at home you’ll see
swarms that better converge in glint of the westward sun
but on our way
the song of the new bird trapped in the shade of the sunroom sky:

something grave,
maybe graceful or brave
if its sloped wings beat the pulse that holds it in place
a sound like a faulty engine hum
like a motor that spits and it shakes as it bends to the grownover / groan of the road ahead

once we’re there
and drawn to the swimming hole darkness
like the wasp that survives in the eye of the open fig

we’ll lose a few days
oh at least i can pray
for dovetail birds
that peek and swoop in an awkward ballet
like our bed in secret
like the gravel thats shaved from the stone and it shapes all the bends in the road ahead
