scott wheeler - litany lyrics
you are the bread and the knife
the crystal goblet and the wine
you are the dew on the morning grass
and the burning wheel of the sun
you are the white apr+n of the baker
and the marsh birds suddenly in flight
however, you are not the wind in the orchard
the plums on the counter
or the house of cards
and you are certainly not the pine+scented air
there is just no way that you are the pine+scented air
it is possible that you are the fish under the bridge
maybe even the pigeon on the general’s head
but you are not even close
to being the field of cornflowers at dusk
and a quick look in the mirror will show
that you are neither the boots in the corner
nor the boat asleep in its boathouse
it might interest you to know
speaking of the plentiful imagery of the world
that i am the sound of rain on the roof
i also happen to be the shooting star
the evening paper blowing down an alley
and the basket of chestnuts on the kitchen table
i am also the moon in the trees
and the blind woman’s tea cup
but don’t worry, i’m not the bread and the knife
you are still the bread and the knife
you will always be the bread and the knife
not to mention the crystal goblet and–somehow–the wine
