Dear Old Greenland |
On the way to Greenland I shall find |
All the disparate fragments of my mind |
I shall return a different man |
And darling do All that I can |
On the way to Greenland I shall find |
No mundane distractions of any kind |
If beneath the ice fields there’s a room |
It’s there I’ll find my peace a lovely tomb |
Friends, Greenland is a place where souls go to dry out |
It is a vast and terrifying place of ice fields and tundra |
Bereft of fire and in the horror of its imposing irrelevance |
There is a peace |
The peace of pain |
The peace of nothing |
Well friends, I’m going there |
Fear is lying dying in the sands |
And it’s breathing from the gills of my Greenland |
