Watch the shutter speed Careful with the light See me if you can My shadow might compete See me if you can Or what is left of me In the high-contrast Spirit photo Catch it if you can It's got nowhere to go Catch me if you can I've got nowhere to go You are my sweatersleeve My dreamriddled ghost Give me what you can I need the most you've got Give me what you can I don't know what I've got Dream a lot of me Dream a lot of you Hold me if you can I'm falling through through Hold me if you can I don't know what to do

is not yet 03:41
Light in which the light is dreaming, Light in which light is seen— Uncalculated and serene As only silence can mean Right through me— vertigo of beauty, Impossible to stand; These restless gestures of the hand That only skin understands In bodies rustling and windy Insomnia of breath— We wrestle in what is not yet, Where there is nothing to get In futures never fully future, Never quite undressed— We search and forage and express A less-than-nothing i guess In bodies never only bodies Never without voice— The breath completes an untold choice Of what is beyond its noises

(elegiac de-make of the billy joel song) They showed you a statue, told you to pray They built you a temple and locked you away They never told me the price you'd pay Only the good die young They say there's a heaven for those who will wait Some say it's better but you said it ain't You said you'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints Only the good die young Send up a signal and I'll throw you the line That stained-glass curtain you're hiding behind Never, never, never lets in the sun Only the good die young

Shadow breathe Out of me A place to leave Rememory Rain in the earth The dripping tree What to expect What to grieve Somehow gone-- will to go Nohow on-- worstward ho Repeating 'I' At every chance Stutter of lies And circumstance Rein in Hold close Overdrawn And underdosed Some gone-- somehow known Nohow on-- worstward ho

bound to 03:22
Watch the day Sit with me Let our eyes empty Of rust and gleam I see the lovely- -est things around you My eyes are drawn to My eyes are bound to Come touch the day Comb its hair Let your hands paw in Its dusty air Its neck is gleaming Bright skin of nothing Our hands are bound to Our hands are drawn to And all the little Soft bits of something Arranged in riddled Haloes of dance The wakeful trance Of being here with you My friend Drink the day Fear no harm Take in its tincture Of hex and charm You’ll feel the only World feeling through you Your lips are bound to Your lips are drawn to O wisp of mirror Curved out like longing More still and clearer Than settled rain The fresh refrain Of being here with you My friend Hold my frame Picture me Inside new memory That spreads and teems With all the answers You found inside me Bright shadow hide me Bright shadow just like me

Jar-moth Do you live here or do I live here Stuck within of me Hear me beat when your wings beat Safe to daydream an hour away For Where I stay you stay Love I can't be alone for long For You go where I go You go I go Safe I can't be alone for long Calling my hand your hand Calling my hand your hand
