Just Leave It

Just leave it like it is
with the mistakes and my signature
what is this I'm seeing?
what is this I'm being
in the brightness of my head?
ultra violets and infrareds
invisible and vivid I retreat to bed
Inside outside inside doubt
down
down
down
down
down
out
I shatter the glasses in the sink
my fingers slip when I'm thinking...
just leave it like it is,
just leave it
Rain douse Light House off shore
((((me, in my shells 1, 2, 3, 4))))
Doubt, doubt
and my route:
Down down down down down
down down down down
down down
down
out

Passenger

I am sitting in the passenger seat of your dying Toyota
and you're gonna drive this truck until the end of the road
I'm stuck, stuck
He moves the woman like a pawn
he fell and broke what she was standing on
I'm a witness in the passenger seat of a public event,
to mark the progress of a man of poor means
stuck, stuck
He moves the woman like a pawn
he fell and broke what she was standing on
I am sleepless in the passenger seat of a government job
war on the earth
where you cut, cut, cut her down
he moves the woman like a pawn
he fell and broke what she was standing on
he moves the woman like a pawn and we fall together
worse is yet to come than what we've come upon
and every year spins fast forward
so with your left you push back with your right you push on forward
I am weeping my head in my hands his hands on the wheel
and the earth is changing she's fighting and wounded
will we break soon?
the ladies say "at some close tipping point
we will feel our hands on the wheel"

Comet

The world flutters by my eyes in stop motion
I don't know how our little now is in such bad condition
as seas heave and crack and swallow you holler
they're chained to the moon and our driven attrition
mountains blossom
swilling lava
and things come to be at a pace so slow their growth
makes no sound
can't be seen
is untouchable
is serene
like when it ends in a flash of light
it's time to go it's time to go
a comet's here to see you off
it's time to go it's time to go
a comet's here to see you off
