it all goes on record, but it has been played out already
time after time it gets tested for fade
maybe for echo, or correction
possibly it was not done right the first time
it is the same old story just believed it is new
nothing is all that indelible, but there is a time
when nothing gets counted or weighed
always to each of us and it is as individual as birth
do your best to make everything succeed
at least become the patient and constant gardener
of fallow fields and scorched earth alike
eventually, it will succomb to the rises and falls
as sure as there are moonbeams in childs' dreams
and the innocence of something we just aren't tall enough to reach
there are no cushions for the fall
there are no nets to stop the crash
crash anyway, push the heights before you fall
all of it came across the fax machine
while you were there, getting that coffee
from yesterday, it is the same message you did not read then
because somehow you know, it is going to be contrary
to whatever is called a best laid plan
someone bring back Don Ho
so we can pop those tiny bubbles
the world belongs to those who just take it
the meek get to inherit the seconds and what is left
bite down on that coin son, hope it don't bend
but like a reed to the wind
what does not adapt gets broken absolutely
and sometimes, that is just the way it all falls into place
you were not the avalanche, just part of it
whatever the mountain is, it does not arrive to you
nor you to it
if there was a little bit of love in you
don't waste it on just some performance
at least in expectation
understand it all in it's space
like now, right now, bear down on that
with all your weight
no reverse cowey cow cow, somehow
no promenade your partner
it all goes on record and it has all been done again and again
if there is to be a change, sometimes it is only
by non participation
follow the homeless home
and there is the space beyond all that
and there may be no notebook or pen
it still stains the wall like a Hiroshima flash
yeah yeah someone is watching
sure something is taking note
unfortunately you don't always get to just kick it's balls
or punch it in the throat
