Boreal Sons

Shake
So we drank deep of the sun,
How it dripped like nectar on our goblet tongues,
And trickled down our icy throats
To warm us in the hollow of our bones
Keep me blind enough to see
Keep me dumb so I can speak
And I heard you after dark
As you hummed the muffled chorus of your heart,
And I heard your sleeping song
As you etched some ancient script into the lawn.
Keep me blind enough to see
Keep me dumb so I can speak
Do you hear me when I call?
Do you know yourself at all?
You're the hummingbird I caught,
The fledgling thing I'll keep till it flies off,
And when your daisy dreams are spent

You'll wake with clouds of pollen on your breath
How the waking life deceives
Hides the truth in all our dreams
Do you hear me when I call?
Do you know yourself at all?
Domesticated, we fill our eyes with halogen
And watch projectors spit out copied images.
Fleeting shadows flit on cave walls of the mind
Our flickering silhouetted cinematic lives
We're stowaways inside our heads,
We're sleeping animals
We blink, we speak, we know our names
But we can't explain ourselves.
We're runaways on broken legs
Crippled automatons,
We brace our bones, we splint our steps,
But we're aimless all along.
