Extraordinary Dinner Party |
Morning after snowstorm |
Stand in the silence |
Almost feel reborn all alone on the street |
It’s a certain sort of stillness when the quiet surrounds you |
The only sound your shovel on concrete |
I remember those piles from the snow plows always seemed much bigger back when |
I was kid |
Pushed all of the snow to the end of the driveway |
I was the only person up in the neighborhood |
Morning after snowstorm |
I turned the ignition and I started my car |
Morning after snowstorm |
I scraped off my windshield with the edge of a credit card |
I remember that drive into work |
Still can hear the voice coming over the radio |
Listen to our experts give the best tips for the next time you entertain dinner |
guests |
I thought of the day in a tie in the kitchen I sat and I watched you put |
make-up on |
Thought of the day in the basement when I played house |
I felt ashamed that I’d stayed in my head in the same place for so long |
Because I was afraid to change |
But that’s not an excuse to stay |
Morning after snowstorm |
I climbed up on the snowbank and I stared at the neighborhood |
Morning after snowstorm |
I think I finally understood what they meant when they said there’s a calm |
after the storm |
Saw my grandpa at his workbench building grandma’s bookshelf |
Watched a woman walk her trash out to the street |
Father alone on the highway |
I heard the salt trucks and neighbors off to work |
Saw my mother |
Saw how history loops around all of these moments and then I saw you |
In a dress there with your eyes open wide to put make-up on |
Thought of the day in the basement that I played house |
And I felt ashamed I’d ignored all the hands that extended before and around me |
Because I was afraid to change |
But that’s not an excuse to stay |
It’s not an excuse |
