hiding out behind the birch and frozen lakes
fewer things seem clearer here and my mistakes
don't fill out the capacious bags that I dragged upstairs
gives me time to grow a love where I had fears
how long will you wait
at the shady end of the slope
am I already late
with my pyramidsized hopes
still boy holds his breath
till something appears
all dumb all deaf all turned over
to the wolves
stepping out of everything to nothingness
course at every tick of the clock
our time weighs a little less
how long will you wait
at the shady end of the slope
am I already late
with my pyramidsized hopes
still boy holds his breath
till something appears
all dumb all deaf all turned over
still boy waves his hand
one time too many
all dumb all deaf all turned over
to the wolves
like the chickens need the fox and daylight longs for the dark
I excuse myself to go and make my mark
still boy holds his breath
till something appears
all dumb all deaf all turned over
still boy waves his hand
one time to many
all dumb all deaf all turned over
to the wolves
