about

THREE HAIKU VS. THE PET GILA MONSTER (a song cycle)

lyrics

Saying hello to tomorrow
Waving goodbye to bygone days
Sprocket holes tearing and blurring
Silvery night forming fumes
In a slow motion explosion

The past happens so fast
It’s so far gone
It’s out of time
It’s out of range
It’s out of focus

Skirting around hazy memory
Shifting around in a darkened room
Panting and sweating and listening
Silvery night forming scenes

Filmy layers of ancient pollen
Filmy layers of past panoramas
Dissolving serious stars of the silvery night
