I remembered yesterday the times that I have with you
And visions of the grateful days and all that I have wished for you
There’s a ghost selling memories down by the shore
as a jury decides its fate
there’s a man of religion knocking at my door
I need to lie down, he can wait.
Stooping down and listless still
the rain, the pavement scarried
the men they took my food and oil
and all that I had carried
I have no room on my leaning frame
The seed that’s planted, in the ground
I have no mind for what lays behind
I put no weight on what others find
It’s a recurring theme invading my senses
I’m lining up images all in a row
They’re blowing up bridges and cutting down fences
But I keep on moving but my moving is slow
