I found a piece of silver thread Leading to bewilderment It wound and wove all through my head And disappeared into my imagination I heard a melancholic sound Tumble from the height above Was smashed to semitones on the ground And suckled into silence by the sleeping earth I knew a child the other day Her name was resurrection Her name is not the same today She's cast her fate in every fanciful direction Born of the Sun, shining fusion of fire Child of the order, of chaos, collision and burning desire Yesterday I asked myself why And where and how and what in the sky am I? She is beautiful and lost Once a butterfly in the rain Now a moth inside a lampshade And still she seems the same Flying round and round the light bulb Look, here she comes again Has she changed into a mirror? No, she's only changed her name Swim the river of her mind And there, behold the queen All alone amidst the ruins Where her memories have been Casting spells into the water With the time she has between Painting words on broken glass With her poetry machine
