What now will you sing?
What now will you answer to the wind blowing out of the east so as to send a true shiver through the seams of history?
Answer or don’t
Sing or be silent
Speak only when all the words are verbs
I loose myself
The light is too bright and I cannot sing
Who can sing at this station?
None can though all would
All would touch the diamond core and name the name its knows itself by
Yet who will not sing his unknowing with David?
Who will hide away the choicest verbs of praise?
I will not as I sing and dance
I will not as I sing
