it’s true, i do imbue my blue unto myself, i make it bitter

There is a blacksmith and there is a shepherd and there is a butcher boy

And there is a barber who's cutting and cutting away at my only joy

I saw a rabbit as slick as a knife and as pale as a candlestick

And I had thought it'd be harder to do but I caught her and skinned her quick, held her there

Kicking and mewling upended unspooling unsung and blue

Told her wherever you go little runaway bunny I will find you

And then she ran as they're liable to do

And there was a booming above you

That night, black airplanes flew over the sea

And they were lowing and shifting like

Beached whales

Shelled snails

As you strained and you squinted to see

The retreat of their hairless and blind cavalry

I wanted to say: Why the long face

Sparrow, perch and play songs of long face

Burro, buck and bray songs of long face!

Sing, I will swallow your sadness, and eat your cold clay

Just to lift your long face;

And though it may be madness, I will take to the grave

Your precious longface

And though our bones they may break, and our souls separate-

Why the long face?

And though our bodies recoil from the grip of the soil-

Why the long face?

Pale September, I wore the time like a dress that year

The autumn days swung soft around me, like cotton on my skin

But as the embers of the summer lost their breath and disappeared

My heart went cold and only hollow rhythms resounded from within
