moonslow yer lashes

downie, gord

where i am

no one makes a sound

no one makes a peep

no one opens their mouth to speak

oh

the constant idling of winter work

work i recognize and understand

no more

'what-must-he-think?'

no more

'i-think-he-thinks'

more

alone and idling in a van

where i am

no one makes a sound

no one makes a peep

no one opens their mouth to speak

oh

the constant sifting for material

oh the constantly in my head

taking everything to bed

while burgundy's crestfallen

she's outside herself

saying

why do i do what i did?
