Pantoum to Oblivion
Where the moon is full
I cannot bark at any one
I blindly stare at heaven
See trees worship sun light
I cannot bark at any one
Even though it is mid night
See trees worship sun light
A glow glints on every thing
Even though it is mid night
Distant waves glimmer again
A glow glints on every thing
And again I am awe struck
Distant waves glimmer again
The sand of the land walk
And again I am awe struck
Tells me I am not alone
The sand of the land walk
In this moment silent fall
Tells me I am not alone
When a life only wishes
In this moment silent fall
There will be time to flee
When a life only wishes
To the bliss of unbeing
There will be time to flee
I blindly stare at heaven
To the bliss of unbeing
Where the moon is full
The sun rose this morning
Actually the earth turned
And here we are again
Those of us who got through
Another diurnal day and night
And here we are again
Can you still walk like a human
Another diurnal day and night
Can you still talk like a being
Will you still walk like a human
Do you hear breakfast cooking
Will you still talk like a being
Do you feel the air's chill
If you hear breakfast cooking
Well then you've come this far
If you feel the air's chill
What do you have to show
Well then you've come this far
Maybe a job, house, marriage, kids
What do you have to show
If you're gifted you could have
Maybe a job, house, marriage, kids
Making some art, music, poetry
If you're gifted you could be
Thanking the muses we made up
Making some art, music, poetry
Those of us who got through
Thank the muses we made up
The earth actually turned
