lyrics

lemon tree
baby girl
you are my brother
pour out your bottle of wine
too young; you're too old
still not a ghost
from whom they stole
not a flake of gold
when you were humming on your knees
singing somewhere, anywhere
off doing what pleases you
and, my, how the breezes are always so still around here
the sky is laughing
brilliantly flashing
on this day so blue

and what about the skin of the snake
by the entrance to where you live?
wanton are you with a fear
the kind that draws you near
and in your dreams it seems to catch you
right where you least expect it to be
when you wake up believing the dream is real
the new skin of a curious friend-of-a-friend-to-be
slowly coiling
no it's ribbons, no it's the flickering
tongue of a serpent winding in your bedsheets
praise be, the lights came on
but you cannot see
your eyes
they only need a little bit of adjusting
yet you flail and you fluff about
blindly still in the dusty glimmer
