lyrics

November


A billionaire was elected president
Leonard Cohen died this morning
And Tom Waits is playing on the radio

Four sheep were slaughtered yesterday
The dog smelled the blood on my clothes
And lately every time I hold a friend
It feels like we're at a funeral

Maybe we are

It could be for Leonard Cohen
Or for the country
Of for the sheep
Kicking their way to the stars
As they opened like
Erupting volcanoes

Travel Plans To The Bottom
Of Kakariko Well


I have travel plans
To the bottom of Kakariko well
Sometime this winter,
And I plan on staying there a while,
Listening to those spooky drums


//


Tea House



I always know
When Jess is running the Tea House

I can tell from the temple bells ringing
The throat singing
Inviting us into the room

The candles lit beneath
Carved wooden sculptures

Good people made immortal
Forever holding up their hands
In some holy gesture of understanding

When Jess brews tea
Her hand rests on the vessel

As through the leaves
Whisper into her palm,
“We're ready now”
