Surely Years Ago

Motionless blue gums
Smooth pear-shaded drum
Among suspended foliage
Like a message to the sky

Great living column
The warmth of a day in autumn
Shifting temperatures
Air moves like a melody that brings on tears

The numbers below
And above
And within
Vineyards visible
Cars and plants
A leaf falls and an engine starts
In a parking lot
Surely years ago
And Holland is now
God has something to tell me
More leaves now, many
And the afternoon advances

Surely years ago
Go-go-go

Hazy bluе elephants I half-obscured
[?], I know I must movе
But want to stay
Coiled [?] and flowerless agapanthus
Acorns
The white buildings of beauty that speak abstract accusations
The young chef's earlobe
The weight between my legs
I uncross them and then get up to go

(And get up to go, and get up to go, and get up to go, and get up to go)

(And get up to go)

(Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh)
