Birds

Do birds cry?
Teary ducks console
swan sorrows
while swallows don’t know
what to do with their pride
Finches feel pinches
from tightened heart strings
and sparrows spread
their heartbroken wings
while swallows don’t know
what to do with their pride
Do birds cry?

Slipping, Sleeping
01:24

It's hard to feel like you aren't
slipping into the same old
patterns
It's hard to feel like you aren't
slipping into the same old
patterns
It's hard to feel like you're
staying in, something new
It's hard to feel like you're slipping

The Third Season
01:32

Three seasons, fourth unseen
Three seasons, fourth unseen
Where will you go?
Where will you go?
Who will you be?
Who will you be?
When your fields stand fallow
When the rivers no longer speak
Bite into the rind
kind with like kind, and bitter
savor the treason, three seasons

Imperfect Circle
00:49
|

Well I can feel
the circle ending
open again and
ravel and rending
Well I can feel
the corners curling
lifting again and
swirling and swarming
The pulse
the pulse
the pulse
is skipping
Pulse
the pulse
the pulse
is dripping
soil black like blood

Warning
02:03
|
|||
Well it’s not like
you didn’t have a warning
not like
we didn’t say
the warming is forming
and there’s no getting
away
Well it’s not like
you didn’t see it coming
Not like
the ice was a sudden disappearance
keeping up appearances while you collect your handsome pay
Your disbelief
is criminal
United we rise
together we fall

To Bees

What’s gone is gone
What’s past is past
What good is it even to say?
I’ve heard you forever
Though loved you never
Now I’ll miss you for all my days
What’s done is done
What’s past is prologue
What good is it even to stay?
I’ve needed you always
Though never like this
Now I’ll miss you for all my days
