lyrics

the purgatory of a nice day
the infinite beach that encircles the small pond:
they are made of similar, kind gestures:
one come from providence, in the car,
and the boy with the dog, the ax, the canoe
his father who will walk on the logging trail, maybe build a shelter
in this junk universe he has created:
handy, the forks and golf poles and fire trucks and so forth,
the landed boats and wrecked cars,
electricity is some enemy, that part is true.
i cannot sleep well the night and wake to this
pale color- astonished-
(the bleeding out of the chipmunk's eyes, in the dog's mouth)-
that it seems neither night or day, but soon color drawn in
by the dawn as if summoned by the smoke of the past evening-
(this forever rowing against the waves made of a clearness that turns to black)-
foliage gains texture again
is this some longest day of summer?
blank hours illusory,
to want for not wanting, for sleep.
some posted letters to strangers, some
conversation. all these beautiful scenes, you know-
if only i were gone more
just for the purpose of then missing.
