Dry your black tears on my kerchief Mascara inks spots on paisley I’ll take your hands And breath with you For as long as we can conceive infinite time Without clocks or watches World War One brand smokes Lit with rolled matchbooks And my callused fingers Whispering in ears, sweet voices Lips painted red, spiced breath of agave in spirits Swirling lights and laughter Dance as we grow older ‘Round and ‘round as we always will Dark coffee pressed in French fashion Breakfast prepared in cast iron Tammy Wynette, George Jones, crooning Harmonies blend with fresh morning air and sweet rainfall Sitting by your window Listening to the buses go ‘Round and ‘round as they always will

I could never run I could never hide I could never save myself from damnation or try And all I want Is to be with you Can’t wait another moment on this Great Highway of blue Ocean view There’s a break in the fog I see a little light Reminds me of the red planet we stargazed at that night And Jupiter watched While Venus smiled From the other side of this “Big Town” I love so much with pride All my life Red and blue sparrows Grab the hammer of hope That forged the anchor to the ship that sails past Jonah’s whale, sea horses, and plum blossoms Blue diamond We’ve come so far Since that tiny room On eleven eleven east eight street in a town with nothing new That late night drive The abandoned farm Our paths divide and merge All these years memories are on tattooed arms

Smile at the face of all the hate, and everything that’s lurking in the darkness and the pain On and on and on and on We find our taste for the ire Onward I’ll take a day to find my way Within a garden full of total righteousness and sweet rain All in all in all in all We’ll get our mantras back Forward All succulents need soil Just as all elephants remember Brush the marrow off of the windows And etch the glass with acid on our tongues Embryos are dripping through the nest Regard our “evening of redness in the West” In and out of REM we run as lions Bounding o’er lakes of burning lyres Try, but you won’t fall asleep You won’t, You won’t, You won’t Instead of pinching my arm, In lieu of wetting my head, Would you forget about it and start over again
