Tundra |
Short Arctic desert day --- |
And someone left their snow-shoes in the tundra |
Look around every which way |
But I can’t see just where the footprints go |
Is it a casual disappearance? |
--- |
Plucked from the middle atmosphere |
Like straw wind-blown |
No speck on the horizon --- |
No simple message scrawled |
Upon the snow |
Unearthly visitation --- |
Someone left their snow-shoes in the tundra |
Hungry buzzard flier |
Circling round and round |
Rattling death’s tambourine |
Have to run it down the cold wire --- |
Late insertion in tomorrow’s lost and found |
Should I spread out searching? |
But I’m a little thin upon the ground |
So I raise my lips to coax |
The last drop of brandy from the bottle |
Rest my feet and contemplate |
The mystery that’s haunting |
This Siberian space |
Show-shoes they bind me down --- |
I’m just one more parasite of the surface layer |
I begin to get the feeling |
I’ve been on this stage before |
And I’m the only player |
One more Arctic desert day --- |
Another set of shoes out in the tundra snow |
I make my fade to white-out |
And you can’t see me where my footprints go |
