shear the water from the water

and I'm not ashamed to say I knew you better

a hopeless endeavor

with a sky that is gaping and yawning

aimless, drunk and dour

ungodly hours

motherlessness rangily reclines

Come on home now,
Em

all my bones are dolorous with vines
Am

to a dirt- red bullet of light
