I hold my breath and wait
How could you leave me out
In the waves
The weight of this emptiness
Pins the floor
To my knees
Up from beneath
I feel the heaviness
Eroding me
Exhale a final time
As I recede
The pressure’s running deep
But every wreck’s a reef
I won't begin to swim
‘Til I learn to breathe
Smooth out like a glass
Let the tide transmute
My bones to sand
The forces that drown me
Are becoming clear
Up from beneath
I feel the heaviness
Eroding me
Exhale a final time
And hold on tight

Seesaw

Watching the silhouettes
Pull from my feet
Gaining some altitude
Lighten up
Reaching the peak
On the upswing
I feel everything
Can’t take a rest
On the up down
When I know what’s next
Can’t take a breath
On the seesaw
Stuck inside the loop
Eyes on the pendulum
Swing to the sky
Helpless but holding on
Stuck inside
And I know why
On the way down
I feel so low
Can’t take a rest
On the up down
When I know what’s next
Can’t take a breath
On the seesaw
Stuck inside the loop

Been out to pasture for weeks
Headache like a bolt gun
A ring of cattle fence
For a crown
Missing the spots on my hide
I thought I found the milk
To serve up with my meat
Sun down
Take a rest
It’s not time to
Understand yet
Though you may not
Have thumbs
Keep a grip
No smile’s breaking my cheeks
Watching all the grass grow
Just to see myself
Mow it down
This guilt keeps prodding at me
I realize I’m just a cow
Kismet has my head on the wall
I thought I had it figured out
Come down
Take a breath
It’s not time
To understand yet
Thought you may not
Have thumbs
Keep a grip

Elevator Down

I found a different kind
Of magic spell
Don’t ask me how
It’s hiding in a corpse
Two-step on the tongue
Of a hollow head
To fish it out
Drop it down
The wishing well
Honey in the lion’s mouth
Lock the cow in a box
Honey in the lion’s mouth
Wait a month and raise some bees
Honey in the lion’s mouth
A riddle now
I wonder how
Try some body parts with me
Peek above the glass
But keep it hid
A little stiff
But kitty wants to grin
Meet the robber fly
The bee moth
A miracle
From the strong
Something sweet
Honey in the lion’s mouth
Lock the cow in a box
Honey in the lion’s mouth
Wait a month and raise some bees
Honey in the lion’s mouth
A riddle now
I wonder how
Try some body parts with me
