lucy roleff - in the afternoon lyrics

Loading...

in the afternoon
the iron post lamp flickers on
not a moment too soon
white lace lines a shop front window
‘neath the elderberry cakes

as the train pulled out
i remarked at your hair
pressed up to the filthy gl-ss
and you turned
alabaster throat
a golden apple swan

i would gladly stroke
that antelope sized eagle
with a broom and rope
if you harness here
some strength for me as i
flit about the evergreens dear

little premature
but below my navel
thrums a slow and a delicate bloom
christ not
i would surely collapse
i would bury my face in cement

still, a novel thought
i close my eyes
and we’re there on your father’s porch
town talk
bearing down on our necks
as we tend to the blossoms and the land
