Cold Mountain |
| Open handed I tried to live among all people, ideas aloft |
| Open handed I read the books, I learned the histories, I sang the songs |
| Until mountains bellowed that my friends are flawed |
| And not to forget sorrow and all the other Gods |
| And that my mouth was dirty and that my ears were clogged |
| And of course that I’m flawed also… |
| And then it stopped |
| Open handedness had me in it’s grasp |
| I was running around frantically |
| Anxiously trying to show off my open hands |
| «Hope, Unhand me!» |
| I finally yelped: |
| «Let me dwell on bad news |
| Let me wallow in it» |
| So came long nights and hunkering down |
| And there stood Cold Mountain with its trickling sound |
| When I reached the summit, I made no camp |
| But I unrolled my sleeping bag in the stream |
| And let the cold water pour in my ears |
