It's cold in the yard |
| [00:07.67] |
|
| [00:11.39] |
I don't know where to start |
| [00:14.59] |
|
| [00:19.73] |
Everything is already tattooed somewhere |
| [00:28.87] |
|
| [00:29.67] |
There's some halt in the way that things seem to work here |
| [00:31.78] |
The sun's radiance reaches us in eight minutes |
| [00:33.06] |
But given its age given the ever expanding nature of the universe |
| [00:36.65] |
Somewhere 4 5 billion light years away its solar winds are breathing fire |
| [00:42.90] |
For the first time its flares dancing through the dark |
| [00:47.15] |
To awaken the worlds at their birth |
| [00:50.65] |
|
| [00:51.94] |
Is our being this buoyant is some celestial observer watching us |
| [00:57.48] |
Through a series of glass lenses |
| [00:59.78] |
And mirrors jotting down notes of years ago maybe |
| [01:04.60] |
Of his flight across the country from the the place |
| [01:07.70] |
He called home to the place I've always called home |
| [01:11.88] |
|
| [01:12.54] |
If so on what star on what rock does his life still shine |
| [01:18.76] |
|
| [01:25.35] |
I've been tinkering with lead pipes and gunpowder aluminum frames fein |
| [01:32.31] |
Saws and soldering irons steel |
| [01:34.52] |
A fishbowl from the attic my astronaut's helmet winter gloves snow boots |
| [01:39.96] |
And overalls over a wetsuit to stave off the cold a notebook of his thoughts |
| [01:45.52] |
To stave off the loneliness infinity isn't anything until you are among |
| [01:52.41] |
The stars searching for something I have lost have lost |
| [01:55.87] |
|
| [01:58.38] |
Let us hope that the duct tape holds and my misguided science |
| [02:04.69] |
And memories of his crooked coffee stained smile can lead me to a place |
| [02:10.78] |
Where his light still illuminates the days |
