Climb |
Here lies Billy the Kid, here lies his gun— here lies The Light of the World |
As quick as the dead |
As gone as the sun; |
Raised like a tent now |
Where heads bow, are bent down to a gypsy moth roosting home— a heart to be |
consumed |
By hunger alone |
Here lies the way I knew how to harbor my mind— there rolls a ship of the sea |
Steady as she goes |
Determined to climb: |
To fly like a kite above |
The near and the near enough |
Tugging your arms through their sleeves— a heart needing only to feel |
What hunger believes |
What I loved loved me back, let me go— met my stare, heard me out |
Sang to me |
What I couldn’t know; |
Here lies the best of us |
And here stand the rest of us: dying, trying not to let on— |
A heart surrendering everything hunger has won |
Here lies Billy the Kid, here lies his gun— here lies The Light of the World |
As quick as the dead |
As gone as the sun |
