Far we travel on to new frontiers
Burdened by the loneliness and zero gravity
Many light years separate us now
Into the nebula of tranquility

Song of the siren
Carry us away take our memories
Here lies the answer
Plain for all to hear this ancient melody

Clouds from the rainstorm
Broken by the light

Down from the sky
Shine on me now
Make better somehow

Mother, mother
If I can go into the light
I’ll be safe for the night




I’m here I’m there I’m up and down
I’m falling in and out of space, out of space

[Down to the ground - without sound - in the round]

I’m here I’m there I’m up and down
I’m falling in and out of space, out of place

Where the water meets the land
Stand the cooling towers
Sure enough blood will spill
in the homes and playgrounds
 
The story lies in print
In the morning paper
But know one gets to read
The page is folded over

In cellophane, in dark door  ways
A paper round from hell

 

<< ____ >>

 

 

Moving down in serpentines
Trying to connect the lines
Problem solved and then revolved to fail

Thought I had a grip on it
Seemed to be a perfect fit
Doldrums push and pull an empty sail

New solutions setting wheels in motion
