Uentitled

31 Jul

On what we’re entitled

She palms her bed table bible

Oh, what had passed the past ensures

Clues to sop the spills of future views

On what we’re owed

He toed the line and cowed and bowed

And oh, the hand the past had dealt

A cutpurse lives to buy and sell

The fairs and faults alike

We’re cracking hairs we recognize

You cut the sail, I’ll cut the lines

The love we’re owed is in our eyes

Oh, what did my parents pass along?

Oh, who’s to say what came upon

this vessel high

The winter’s gone, go reach towards the sunlit sky

Oh, what do we pass along?

Do we say or was our song

identified?

The winter’s long, go reach towards the sunlit sky
