[00:05.77] |
It's cold in the yard |
[00:07.67] |
|
[00:11.39] |
I don't know where to start |
[00:14.59] |
|
[00:19.73] |
Everything is already tattooed somewhere |
[00:28.87] |
|
[00:29.67] |
There's some halt in the way that things seem to work here |
[00:31.78] |
The sun's radiance reaches us in eight minutes |
[00:33.06] |
But given its age given the ever expanding nature of the universe |
[00:36.65] |
Somewhere 4 5 billion light years away its solar winds are breathing fire |
[00:42.90] |
For the first time its flares dancing through the dark |
[00:47.15] |
To awaken the worlds at their birth |
[00:50.65] |
|
[00:51.94] |
Is our being this buoyant is some celestial observer watching us |
[00:57.48] |
Through a series of glass lenses |
[00:59.78] |
And mirrors jotting down notes of years ago maybe |
[01:04.60] |
Of his flight across the country from the the place |
[01:07.70] |
He called home to the place I've always called home |
[01:11.88] |
|
[01:12.54] |
If so on what star on what rock does his life still shine |
[01:18.76] |
|
[01:25.35] |
I've been tinkering with lead pipes and gunpowder aluminum frames fein |
[01:32.31] |
Saws and soldering irons steel |
[01:34.52] |
A fishbowl from the attic my astronaut's helmet winter gloves snow boots |
[01:39.96] |
And overalls over a wetsuit to stave off the cold a notebook of his thoughts |
[01:45.52] |
To stave off the loneliness infinity isn't anything until you are among |
[01:52.41] |
The stars searching for something I have lost have lost |
[01:55.87] |
|
[01:58.38] |
Let us hope that the duct tape holds and my misguided science |
[02:04.69] |
And memories of his crooked coffee stained smile can lead me to a place |
[02:10.78] |
Where his light still illuminates the days |
