lyrics

A fearful reparation

The bow is in the attic
and you spend your time
in the crow's nest sleeping

The vessel is yawning
as the basement thins

I've met our new houseguest
said hello in the room between
obsolescence and archival

I said I thought I had met him before
he said I was mistaken
but that he comes from a large family
and I may know his relations

Your intent was clear
and I found it somehow
comforting that you took
your character seriously

You paint the line thin
between cruelties
and if this is the natural ebb
after a decade's flow

Your voice is soft with a sleeve in the mouth
and you grin for the coming audit

I'll try and wake the captain
