Impossible |
I found that I was angry |
In the cool of the day |
All the tall trees swaying |
All I did not to say |
Though I managed all the details |
And I made all those phone calls |
And I wrote out all the e-mails |
And straightened out the front hall |
It don’t matter, it made no difference |
All through our disagreement |
There was a cardinal on the fence |
Put no walls around me |
I will lay the stones myself |
And lay down with my body |
But give nothing else |
Still living with the feeling |
Pent up in my chest |
My old lifelong companion |
The one I know best |
Well, I guess I got the hang of it — the impossible |
You could say I moved right in with it — the impossible |
You knew I felt unnatural in the blue light of dawn |
I left the house in shadow |
And my mind went on and on |
On the long spool of the highway |
Strange fragments of song |
And all I can’t get my way |
Everything that’s still wrong |
Oh, I guess I got the hang of it — the impossible |
And I walk the endless boundaries of it |
Just to know what you can’t ever have |
What is light, what shadow |
I guess I always wanted the impossible |
In time I learned to rest on the fevered pitch |
The change was so relentless, no time to get used to it |
I had to get so ruthless |
To cut right down to the quick |
To wake at six AM and go along with all of it |
But still I was so sensitive |
I could hardly even stand your simple acts of kindness |
The gentle pressure of your hand |
Glimpsed from the ferry, green swaths of land |
Sleeping on the floor, I felt the ocean’s movement |
