Rob Schackne #568 - Over/Under

Over/Under

                      Somebody said they saw me,
                      swinging the world by the tail,
                      

                      Bouncing over a white cloud,
                      killing the blues.


                 
          Rowland Salley (2005)


The stars transparent
just so much they can do
the light years too late

No common ground
what is not discerned
when did you know it


What have you done
where did you go
how long did it take

Every evening
across the fence
a little girl wails

Titan has a sea level
the queue is hardly moving
sorry over sorry under

Swing it how it is
kill those blues tonight
all the voices calling
