Bird
Your tiny scream
And song
And then no more
...
The payments never came
Those payments I agreed
On top of a high cloud
Agreed
...
I realized
The pay of heavens was not
In our currencies.
...
I saw
I saw the heavens open
I saw
...
The birds stood still.
Statue-like they looked
At me.
...
The fields have worked and now
Await the rain.
The dusk has come and gone and
...
How through the glass ceiling so
Thick and damp the waters
Pass?
...
The nearby fount is
Quiet though
It still be dusk
...
Slow
Slow the waters glide
Slow
The snows the peaks
...
