Tell me how many times they've called and you've stared into the nothing pot Where nothing ever seems to rot with talk of what had fallen there
But unhappy marbles, let's be fair: Your ups are garbled, and no such pie could call its humble home the sky and insist we met in passing when my fingers were too wide but they don't spread so far, and so, you know you must have grown there from below
Where are we in the hour glass? Where are we in the sand? Busy churning while the hours pass I'm learning of the jam in its vicious waist in the cinch it makes in the middle We had time until we didn't Now it's something that we're much too big to chase—
But maybe we'll go one by one a ways Maybe we'll row single file awhile And maybe I'll know you, one of those days, on a southern shore of a sandy plain
Maybe we'll go one by one aways Maybe we'll row single file awhile And maybe I'll know you, one of those days, on a southern shore of a sandy plain below the glass, while someone laughs
and cries:
“Unhappy marbles, let's be fair: Your ups are garbled, and no such pie could call its humble home the sky”
