Open Book In A Dead Language |
I wish you a small house by the river |
Close to the open sea |
Dreamboats at the shore deliver |
Tomorrow’s troops to march with thee |
And all the world would share your values |
No crusades necessary |
And though your army cheered at you |
You’d release them to walk free |
But look what you have become |
An open tuning without song |
A corpse without a casket |
The spoiled apple in the basket |
Look what you have become |
By decision disadvantaged |
With habits hard to manage |
An open book in a dead language |
I wish you disciples smart and strong |
Who never cut you loose |
I want your mornings full of light |
Your lovers to be true |
I want your evenings to be sweet |
Someone within the reach of your arms |
The animals are all asleep |
The light dissolves and it is warm |
But look what you have become |
A rice corn without a chessboard |
A great mind in a horde |
That does not wish to be taught |
But look what you have become |
Your habits hard to manage |
Neither sculpture nor assemblage |
An open book in a dead language |
