lyrics

The calendar unvaried year to year. The grid unflickering, The star chart retracted when it's clear that my lids are blistering from shielding my awareness to the light. A courtesy to what has come to be. Shovel soil on what is left of me. The peasantry may toil, but at least they see a harmony that's unburdened by monopolies of noble blood. At least they seize the day even when the gutters they're doomed to flood. At least they smile while I hammer at the glass inside this vial.
