- Clearing webs from the hovel
A blistered hand on the handle of a shovel Ive been diggin too deep, I always do I see my face on the surface, I look a lot like narcissus A dark abyss of an emptiness Standin on the edge of a drowning blue I look behind my ears for the green And even my sweat smells clean Glare off the white hurts my eyes I gotta get out of bed get a hammer and a nail Learn how to use my hands, not just my head I think myself into jail Now I know a refuge never grows From a chin in a hand in a thoughtful pose Gotta tend the earth if you want a rose I had a lot of good intentions Sit around for fifty years and then collect a pension Started seein the road to hell and just where it starts But my life is more than a vision The sweetest part is acting after makin a decision I started seein the whole as a sum of its parts And I look behind my ears for the green And even my sweat smells clean Glare off the white hurts my eyes I gotta get out of bed get a hammer and a nail Learn how to use my hands, not just my head I think myself into jail Now I know a refuge never grows From a chin in a hand in a thoughtful pose Gotta tend the earth if you want a rose My life is part of the global life Id found myself becoming more immobile When Id think a little girl in the world cant do anything A distant nation my community A street person my responsibility If I have a care in the world I have a gift to bring I look behind my ears for the green Even my sweat smells clean Glare off the white hurts my eyes I gotta get out of bed get a hammer and a nail Learn how to use my hands, not just my head I think myself into jail Now I know a refuge never grows From a chin in a hand in a thoughtful pose Gotta tend the earth if you want a rose
