lyrics

Tending my spine in the pink wind, auburn light
Mosquitoes take flight as I hang in your clothespin eyes

The kindness you offer me, the distance you keep
the click and the shuttering, to hear what you see

And the rustling between us leaves in the ripple of night
what you pen of the feathers that fall to your spine
to repair?

How I’ve relied on the green edge of your blue reply
and yet it is I who is silent by your tableside

Leaving your quiet lawn, mosquitoes sing
and I leave to ponder on my sucking and screams

And the rustling between us leaves it the ripple of night
what would I pen of the feathers that fall to my spine
to repair?

All of my anger and self-righteous urgency gone
how I’d remember the wings of the love we flew on
