The Bear |
I was first attracted by your scent. |
Your heart must be a caramelized onion. |
By the time I saw your flame |
It was all over for you and what’s-his-name. |
I think it was Algonquin Park. |
It was so cold and winter-dark. |
A promised hibernation high, |
Took me across the great black plate of ice. |
Now I’m the Islander. |
I found a place to call my den |
And dreamt of the Ferry and |
The Enormous Man. |
Huge as were his children |
Following around after him. |
I’m the Islander |
Woke up in the furtive Spring |
More capable of anything. |
I waited for more men to come |
They docked their boats and cocked their guns. |
The time for truth and reconciliation’s gone. |
But with my belly full I intended to get |
Something done. |
I’m the Islander |
Woke up in the dead of Spring |
More hungry than anything |
Islander. |
