FDown that hole and Gback again
DRising up
And Fwiping the webs and the dew from my Gwithered eye.

Fto find I’ve known this Gall along.
“DSo good to see you.

FWhy are you rGunning away?”
DCame out to watch you play.
FWhy are you rGunning ?”
Spoken
DShrouding all the ground around me
FIs this holy crow aGbove me.
DBlack as holes within a memory
FAnd blue as our new sGecond sun.

FTo pull the pieces fGrom the sand.
DWhich I attempt to reassemble
FTo see just who I mGight have been.

DI do not recognize the vessel,
FBut the eyes seem Gso familiar.
DLike phosphorescent desert buttons
FSinging one fGamiliar song…
