lyrics

Death is stupid

but true and continuous
leaves and sticks swept away
in cold gray gratuitous wind
the stoop left bare

it breathes second chance
idiocy though fresh cut keyholes
have a little mercy please etc. etc.
exhaled in cold syllables

in argument it wins often
enough to seem invincible
grooved granite blank looks
visible above the frozen waves

some kitchens contain clean-faced
clocks to drown time in minute detail
the light goes on and off with a flick
and you are left in the dark

wondering why some hide
knives in the drawer or keep
a gold watch ticking so constant
it’s useless to look away
