dark day - no, nothing, never lyrics

[robin lee crutchfield’s dark day :]
have you gone down
in the dark where none is welcome?

he heard the constant sound between the
walls of our house. he tried to locate it
he attacked the wash with fierce energy
as if to get rid of the troubled ideas which boiled in his head
like the water in the bubbling tanks

no, nothing, never

he threw the dirty whites into the
washer, and closed the lid with a bang
he felt the angry waves rush at him
as though they would tear him from his seat
and great sheets of stinging spray were flung in his face

no, nothing, never
no, nothing, never

[mystery woman :]
“poor thing” she said
“i suppose it’s not quite right in its little head.”
she fed him bread and milk on the end of a sliver of wood
which he took willingly, and soon he was growing fat and strong

no, nothing, never

she would encourage him by talking to him
and he would start again
step by step, feeling the way
and only putting his foot down
when he sensed firm ground beneath him

no, nothing, never
no, nothing, never

his food is given him in a plate and he is handed a spoon
with which he eats as well as any ordinary child
seldom spilling any of the food
when he has finished, he hands the plate and spoon to the keeper who, in turn
hands him a napkin with which he
thoroughly removes all traces of his dinner
if given soap, water and towel
he will wash and dry his face and hands
he does many things which he has
apparently learned through observation

no, nothing, never
no, nothing, never
no, nothing, never

when our bobby was about a year old
our dear little toodles had a paralytic stroke and p-ssed away
we buried him back of the barn
