STREAMS
(written 2000/recorded 2001/revised 2003/2005/2019)


drive into dawning realms
covered by the cloak of dreams undone
scrapes on those perfect worlds
sore is mine and yours, mispraised

down on the ground
in the soil lies the stream
it is time to go down
to recoil from the gleem
it is time
plead for streams
it is time
plead for streams

here in this life absorbed
weaved into the corpse that wastes away
scrapes on my soul estranged
sore is mine and yours, entailed

down on the ground
in the soil lies the stream
it is time to go down
to recoil from the gleam
it is time
plead for streams
it is time
plead for streams

bartering away
one illusion for another
and every lie we pray
we’re so frightened to discover
