it is inside spirit

---

miles to go before i sleep

miles, miles, millions of miles-

(sleep, my darling, the air is deep)

young corpses walk
in angels' fear

where are you, now?

 

 

i thought you'd always be near

here, i am, my voice you will always hear

my ship, tall silver
incandescent iridescence

where is my star
where is my star

i know

no, no

not

how

to

steer

these feet do walk
but their heels are bitten

these boots do bite
but their stature is smitten

doubled over, folded breathless

miles to go before i sleep

millions of miles, my suffering too deep
