A hermit thrush told me bout the hooting owls tricks They want to take you back to their Pennsylvania cricks Although they're so far from your new life that you now know Your important meeting, it was canceled, so you go The dandelion daylight dies You catch a dozen fireflies A red delicious tastes like fall Well, it's all growing dark Close your eyes Sleep beside the Wissahickon If you're not chicken Good enough for any Wiccan To dip their toes in From your lips escapes a prayer Do you believe in God? As you are, she sees you there She's nodding as you nod Streams of consciousness Show what you suppress Lost are all the others You have found yourself at last Baptized by the Brothers As you wade into the past Psalms and prophecies Set your heart at ease Hold a stone. Then throw it When it plunks, it scares a fish Who darts away below it Still the ripple grants your wish God breathes in and puffs out the light The feeling of Night Sounds around astound you as you stumble to your feet Bird song and Goose honk and Bird song and tweet Sunlight warms the breeze Touching through the trees Jarred awake, you crawl aboard Your gasping SEPTA bus Thinking back on where you snored You look back and smile at us Sleep beside the Wissahickon If you're not chicken Good enough for any Wiccan To dip their toes in
