adjy - eve beneath the maple tree lyrics
“…he walked down inman just to see what she had drawn…
…she waited every may for someone who was gone…
he’d say:
“my rose…
virgo…
…wipe the lapis from your eye!”
to a ceres ear of corn, moth+torn to her europa+light…
…and they linger in those days falling like rain on summer dunes where:
“you are not the one i met, yet you’d become the one i knew
and in your room, oh how i begged you “run away…”
and every year in tears you’d press on me to stay
o we tried so hard
in those shaded yards
at miss amabells’ house
or at tinsley park
down that muggy street
nightly wandering
layin fit a spell
under green way trees
and for a time, half sore, half fine
with the whippoorwill we’ll swallow wine
the sweet tan musk, the hushed amens
…our fingers rake the waves of our skin…”
to mend our ships …we use the sales …
…set thesean…
years pass…
colombia held high a sheaf of wheat and
made eve cover her br++sts with the ol’ glory of astarte…
…but the “gnosis” of athena, bore as rhea forth to nosos:
with the goldenrod july received the news:
”annuit coeptis” couldn’t stave cybele’s pall
demeter’s grain fell rot in towers set to fall”
in the heat and rain she fled to find her june…
and on the road he saw her… just as she collapsed
…panicked, he ran… …carried her home
when she finally woke she held his face, saying
“o my june
i have come so late…
o my lent light night nears collect…
…have i p+wned these years to avert the debt?
how the waters rise
washing all i knew…
…breaching all the lines
i should have left with you…
the clepsydra now rushing runs
…the doctor said it’s in my blood…
we have to get you back!
no, june… just stay with me
…i see you now
mercy…
in that old house
kissing the warm light on your shoulder
they wept and wound…
mercy…
come take my hand
and dance with me foot+free again…
…before i can’t
spin me
and maybe
we’ll circle back…
this isn’t how this story’s supposed to go
be here now
mercy…
is it old clothes…
that i’ve been so afraid to lose?
…o can i fence life in?
… o i don’t want to be afraid anymore…
…i want to i fly like one of them…
she clasped his hand round the maple seed
weeping:
“june promise you’ll plant this with me.”
must i eyes rent wide wake here every time
to a life i must remind myself is mine..
…can you hide your head in that bed you use
from the howling dreams of the life we knew…?
you can fool them all… can you fool the night
as you drawn in your doorway by the porch light?
should you drifting go down your parents blood
know that river’s flow will become the flood
…while somewhere off in some other time
o we just met in that great collide…
…only there we’re free and we make a home
“a summer peach with her corn field groom.”
…there’s a tree that still stands in that park
on who’s limb rests our covenant ark
there’s a word that should we speak again…
o a crucifixion breath must we draw back in
“a sh+ll awake! … an ache, a song… “
“o comely as jerusalem…”
“a sh+ll await…
…a flame arise…”
on an endless loop till we get this right…
can you hide your head in that bed you chose
when your wild+heart knocks at the door you closed?
“ …lay your head on my shoulder;
…we have done wrong
“though +we +won’t last the evening
we’ll have till dawn.”
