I've never told this story to another living soul |
|
For fear it might awaken and the story would unfold |
|
Candles in a courtyard |
|
And a paper colored cat |
|
While demos danced on feathers |
|
And cosmos held the hat |
|
Next came their profession |
|
And a paper colored purr |
|
And umber armed albino |
|
And the crowd began to stir |
|
I slid behind a linden |
|
To swallow what I'd seen |
|
I slid behind a linden |
|
To swallow what I'd seen |
|
Threads of grass and thimbles |
|
Needles made of hair |
|
Weaves a dance that stumbles |
|
Limbs laughed in the air |
|
Threads of grass and thimbles |
|
Needles made of hair |
|
Weaves a dance that stumbles |
|
Limbs laughed in the air |
|
And on the day you fall |
|
Who's name would you call |
|
The only thing you taught me is the only thing you know |
|
How to start a fire once the embers cease to glow |
|
The only thing you taught me is the only thing you know |
|
How to start a fire once the embers cease to glow |
