Wake - Typhoon

Listen

Of all the things you’re about to lose

This will be the most painful

Down in the floodplains waiting on a cure

Blessed be the water, may the water make us pure

Forms will be unborn in the mirror within the mirror

Rejoice now, rejoice now

The reckoning is here

Wake and I have been reborn

The tide concedes that homely shore and I am benighted

All my lines unlearned

Cry out, «Will God, or somebody, please turn the light on?»

Restore me to that empty room—expands out like hot air balloons

A woman comes she brings me food

I shit the bed in solitude

My life one brief unbroken loop—goes round and round with nothing left to hold

onto

But if there’s nothing, if there’s nothing

Then what’s that song that keeps hounding me?

In the still dark of the morning

Just one more cradle down the creek

Au revoir my little memories

Then tell me: this is not your loss, this is your offering
