Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer
Scored by an abrupt stream A rural reverie on once concrete things Treating crumpled paper as a scroll I transcribed the fading thoughts Arising from the mausoleum in my meadow An ugly, overgrown silo It recalled the water tower From the hometown I thought home I knew from here There would be spirals A downfall I knew from here There would be spirals A downfall The sight of the silo Is causing some trouble For acquisitions sight-unseen The sight of the silo Is causing some trouble For acquisitions sight-unseen Back at the ranch I was sleepless Hearing the jackaroos returning The deafening silence that has scored our lives Wild wheat over irrigated teats Unseen patterns of flora and fauna The cities are bespoke tailors for black holes And we're still playing cowboys for the day Still, I could not sleep The grass kept bleeding on my feet I knew from there There would be spirals A downfall I knew from there There would be spirals A downfall Ontology is a footnote A box to be ticked, and left derelict And whoever suggested that "sorry" was anywhere near enough? The sight of the silo Is causing some trouble For acquisitions sight-unseen The sight of the silo Is causing some trouble For acquisitions sight-unseen The poet by the quiet creek How is it possible to report peace Wind in the grain, like a steel maraca Pummeling percussion, plasma lacquer And resigned capitulation I think a fitting anthem for our nation Don't change a word they say, nor hoist a flag Ask the hamstrung straggler To follow along And to any demur, say, "Get over it" Routine restoration, and still the silo rots
