Deuteronomy 2:10 |
The sun above me and a concrete floor below |
Scratch at the chain links, maybe bare my teeth for show |
Fed twice a day, I don’t go hungry anymore |
Feel in my bones just what the future has in store |
I pace in circles |
So the camera will see |
Look hard at my stripes |
There’ll be no more after me |
Laze by the shoreline while the sailors disembark |
Scratch out a place to sit and rest down in the dark |
Smell something burning downwind just a little ways |
They set up camp and sing and sweat and work for days |
I have no fear of anyone |
I’m dumb and wild and free |
I am a flightless bird |
And there’ll be no more after me |
In Costa Rica, in a burrow underground |
Climb to the surface, blink my eyes and look around |
I’m all alone here as I try my tiny song |
Claim my place beneath the sky, but I won’t be here for long |
I sang all night |
The moon shone on me through the trees |
No brothers left |
And there’ll be no more after me |
