The Edge of a Glass

You danced to the tune,
Surfing smiles on the waves
Counting millions of sparkling dunes.

I was building a ship
That could sail down deep,
Where the words swam in shoals
And the memories crawl.

And I dragged you in
And you followed me keen,
And you lost your breath
And you drowned in faith .
But I just looked for your shoe,
But I just kept losing you,
But I just hurried for light,
But it was murky blue.

And I reached for your hand
In the haze of sand,
But it moved away
In impatient sway
Like the dunes would creep,
Like the crickets leap
And all I could do,  was weep.

So I Praised all the shadows,
And drank with the bee,
Got warm with the pater,
And cried till the eyes, were me.


I was pouring a drink
Carving smiles in a hall
Till the spirit fell over the sink.

They sipped at my heart
And they took back a part,
And gave nonchalant smiles
My cushions soaked in Niles.

And I hid in black
And I fixed the crack
And the melodies left
And my fingers wept,
So i screamed in a jar
So I got on a train
So i tried to get far
It was all in chains.

And i looked for the oak
But it was slaughtered at dawn.
And it made me choke
But she tried to warn;
Then the shadows,  the bee,
The patter and she,
They wrapped me warm, 
Gave a present to me
But i dropped the glass
And in the grass,
There were millions of pieces, of me.

So I Praised all the shadows
And drank with the bee,
Got warm with the pater
And cried till her muses hushed me.


There's a castle in you,
Where you let in a few,
And none of them ever returned.

I tried to get in,
But the gate was pulled up
So i flew on a sin,
And gave you Sea in a cup.

And i picked up my few,
And wrapped a box for you
And put a terrace, a song,
And book, a poetry gone wrong;
But I just couldn't unwind
But I just couldn't find
But It was just a night
But it was shimmery light.

And i hid it out there
But you were always aware
And i faltered around
But you were too spellbound,
And then it dropped to the ground
And the quarrels were crowned
And a purr was all of her i found.

So I Praised all the shadows
And drank with the bee,
Got warm with the pater
And ran with her to the ash tree.
