20070415 - Sunday Prayer LIII

lyrics

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.

DAS - Washington, D.C., USA
