Whose is the hand that I will hold? Whose is the face I will see? Whose is the name that I will call When I am called to meet thee?
In this life who did you love Beneath the drifting ashes Beneath the shifting banks of air That barely pour out rations
When I could speak it was too late Didn't you hear me calling? Didn't you see my heart leap like a pup in a constant barley
In this life where did you crouch When the sky had set to boiling Burning within seen from without And your gut was a serpent coiling?
And for the sake of that pit of snakes For whom did you relay your shyness And spend all your mercy and madness and grace In a day beneath the bending cypress
It was not on principle Show your heart but you have got all A miracle I can bear a lot but not that pall I can bear a lot but not that pall Kingfisher, sound the alarm Say sweet little darling, now come to my arms Tell me all about the love you left on the farm
He was a kind and hurried man With a heavy lip and a steady hand But he loved me just like a little child A little child loves a little lamb
Thrown to the ground by something down there Bitten by the bad air, will the clouds tick Trying to read all the signs Preparing for when the bombs hit.
Hung from the underbelly of the earth While the stars get away below Gormless and brakeless, gravel loose Falling silent as gavels in the snow
La-la-la .. la la La la la la .. la la la la la
Lay back and spit in my jar Wrapped in the long arm of the law You see it all I can bear a lot but not that pall I can bear a lot but not that pall Kingfisher, cast your rod Oh lord, it happens without even trying When I sling a low from a sheltering ..
Blows rain upon the one you loved And though you were only sparring There's blood on the eye, unlace the glove Say, 'Honey, I am not sorry'
Stand here and name the one you loved Beneath the drifting ashes And in naming rise above Time as it, flashing, passes ... ooooooh
We came by the boatload And were immobilized Worshiping volcanoes Charting the loping skies
The tides of the earth left Us bound and calcified And made as obstinate as obsidian Unmoving sable eyes anekatips.com
Just mooning and blinking Them faces marked with coal Ash coolin' and shrinking Cracks loud as thunder rolling, I swear
I know you, you know me Where have we met before? Tell me true

To whose authority Do you consign your soul?
I had a dream you came to me Said you shall .... And with your knife you evicted my life From its little lighthouse on the seashore
And I saw that my blood had no bound Spreading in a circle like an animal Soaking and filling everything in its path A well in my heart like a birdbath
Oh, it is too short The day we are born We commence without dinning Trying to serve with the heart of a child Kingfisher lie with the lion
