I was hardly there then
And you were loose with your words when
Often as they came around sure
enough you had a use for them.
All too soon they gather at your feet
My foot falls on a tambourine
That’s laying right in front of me
There’s something only I can see
You’re rising from a circle of steel
Gentle to condemn and sweet enough freeze a hot snow. “Come let’s see what these sweet creatures do!”
Never did expect a French style revolution.
Arab spring at most and even then I hesitated
Dial in precisely how you’d like
Your frustrations meted out tonight
An image may result from these thoughts
Don’t get caught crying In sunset eyes I’ve come alive
your words land like the soft blows of a child
Proof of no real malice only guile
Take longer to get to Am bit, winding shit
Turnabout is fair play, but your ways are out of season.
For how long and how late the line of something leading.
Scent of sense and a low grade humming
Present tense, riding on a voice of a new river running
Tide, tired of new talk,
you, you shouldn’t say that such
Wade and take a soft walk
I see the shadow of a cloud
hanging low right there on my wall
Start in fits and always stall
An image comes to mind from it all
Don’t get caught cryin in the sunset eyes you’ll come alive
There is something only I can see
You are rising from a circle of steel
