SUNDAY PRAYER, cxii
(featuring Robby Cosenza, Justin Craig, and Echo Wilcox on organ, mixing & piano, and backup vocals, respectively)
time & time again
whispers in the cinches
of a seashell, in the treerings of
the firs, a rhombous register
with money where her mouth should be
she details very carefully
her reasons to be happy
and those reasons don't have much
to do with me.
time & time again
a sandy beach can be a cure
on a sunny day, the sea takes confession
she forgives us our transgressions
but you won't, and that's okay. a rose
is a rose, of course of course.
you can't disown your thorns. it's who you are.
it's who you've been, since the day that
you were born.
but you're a birthday
deep with the dayshine
from dusk to moonbreak
the dust of keepsakes
time & time again, i am i am
