If you find me
Do not hang me
Do not shoot me
Leave me here
Take my water
Take my rifle
Let my body disappear
For I've spoken
With the vultures
And they'll have me
As their peer
For they all were
Men like me
Who'd walk the desert
Free and clear
Can you hear it
The song they play
Of love forsaken
Debts unpaid
Men like snakes and
Evil women
Taking loans out
On their judgement day
"You know you used to be lovers
None so sweet
Professed by the light of the moon
And the sway of earth
As you danced together
Cheek to cheek
You used to talk about forever
With such certainty
As though your life was just a dream
Where all required of you
Was to remain in that state of being"
Feel the strength
Leave the body
Float the body
Through the hole
Let the fever
Overtake you
Let your spirit
Take control
Feel the strength
"Feel the strength"
Leave the body
"Leave the body"
Float the body
"Float the body"
Through the hole
"Through the hole"
Let the fever
"Let the fever"
Overtake you
"Overtake you"
Let your spirit
"Let your spirit"
Take control
"Take control"
From the cradle to the harness
From the harness to the grave
"You know you used to be lovers
None so sweet
Professed by the light of the moon
And the sway of earth
As you danced together
Cheek to cheek
You used to talk about forever
With such certainty
As though your life was just a dream
Where all required of you
Was to remain in that state of being"
Days of rain and nights of sleet
Time smoldering lurching forth Into loss endless loss
Until the quiet comes
Worry and endless pain
As the angel of the morning
Grieves to me
Dragging the needle past the dial
Into the nothingness and Nothingness again
Days seared behind the veil of a dying dream
Mourning the loss of a sow which never lived
Like a ghost in the field wading in
Like a leper wretches into the street
Darkness scorches the mountain
Where I am the throat and I am the blade
Where I am the father and the son
Where I am both offered and offering
Where I am nothing and nothing again
Lo I am
God I have been been a lamb
God I have been a sheep
Take me now from your dry earth
Take me now from your swollen purgatory
Drown me in the furthest depths of your suffering
Bury me in the sod
Raze me from your forsaken harvest
