SUNDAY PRAYER, liii
time & time again
what it was like to write on white flags
with my soul as rich as rags are
rich with memories of accidents
i spilled a glass with sand in it
a rabbit with a plan
i am the bird making a stand
i am a bird making the stand i am i am
time & time again
a wager war of sums and battles
like muted music in the background
dreaming. death will never wear down
the mountain of hope. the mountain of despair
to either top, the same set of stairs
but how can anyone know? and why should they care
if i had climbed them. if i was there i am i am i am
but you're a birthday
deep with the dayshine
from dusk to moonbreak
the dust of keepsakes
time & time again i am i am
