lyrics

Vetiver and cardamom
Piano keys left hanging
Bound in copper wire
Beads of glass all swaying

And round about the hovel weeds
stood demons carved from ash
Mind and sod keep company
as daylight swings on past

It is august and the summer ends in gossip:
my friends and I talk girls while our parents talk oil conflict
Back and off-center, probably for the better
[Father] "Speak into the wind! It's all air!"

[Author] It's all air, this "better" besides
whether or not we listen's not the point
it's if we follow
These precious moments are ficklefine
It's like a shadow, growing's so fragile

Lessons learned
There is no curve
We grew up like *that* in the dirt
You are
in equal parts
My Charybdis
and my Odyssey

Father? Is this my inheritance?
Words, death, and mental illness?
Pull back the fight of my heart
Raise it like a child to an artful vengeance
Then go on, you! you vanguard!
Find me acceptance and whatever's left may bring me hope

Lessons learned
There is no curve
We grew up like *that* in the dirt
You are
in equal parts
My Charybdis
and my Odyssey
