    This is a good old, factory made & conventionally printed CD; which is to say it's not handprinted by Eleanor but it's got all the songs on there plus liner notes. It actually wasn't made in a factory it was made up in Maine by our friends at Crooked Cove who have a small CD making operation.

lyrics

This is right
always ending and starting
endlessly joining and parting
hooked jaw fish hooked jaw don’t leave your beginnings behind

a still pane of blue ripples round
a blue pane tips and empties down
you are the one in the hospital gown

It happens:
hooked jaw gaping dead
insects and eagles pecking
the animals come nom nom checking

Hooked jaw fish hooked jaw
the waters are thick with them

there’s a stone in my stomach it rocks when the earth quakes
a bird in my chest, she rakes at my ribcage
don’t look
don’t spy
you are the one in the hospital
you and I

You and I looking for center my bird
in every revolution revolving my bird
you and I look for sameness my bird
you and I
