Beat A Drum |
The sun reflected in The back of my eye |
I knocked my head |
Against the sky |
The dragonflies are busy buzzing me Seahorses if we were in the sea |
Halfway from coal, |
Halfway to diamond |
My fall knocked a Mean chip out of me |
I’m gathering as far |
As I can reach |
We’re perched up On the precipice |
And this is what I’ve seen |
This is all I want |
It’s all I need |
This is all I am It’s everything |
This is all I want |
It’s all I need |
A bluejay hectors from |
The felled catalpa tree |
Doctorate in science |
And a theologian’s |
Dream |
The dragonflies are |
Trying to lecture me Seahorses if we were in the sea |
This is all I want |
It’s all I need |
This is all I am It’s everything |
This is all I want |
It’s all I need |
Beat a drum for me, |
Like a butterfly wing |
Tropical storm across the ocean |
But don’t explain, |
I’m sure I’ll want to know |
But don’t forget, |
We’re just halfway from coal |
This is all I want |
It’s all I need |
This is all I am It’s everything |
This is all I want |
It’s all I need |
