the rabbit and the pointed gun

hide away

the storms about to break

all of the branches shake

and the tremor calls and the tide comes awake

fair enough

it took me by surprise

just like the sun in my eyes

and i falter on the step before the lake

the thunder and the swallows dive

right then i almost cried out

and the brush grows over and the pool sinks in

and he's underwater while he's under wind

the rabbit and the pointed gun

i help the boat in the sun

and i walked back home

after the storm was done
