Return The Boats It was sudden death That begged my pardon Had a sinking ship in my bathtub I couldn’t bear to swim As the gangways and the stars And the walls expanded The universe in my choking throat I am something I am nothing The reasons find me somewhere I am beautiful I am meaningless But I could never save just one life We could all live with one We could all live with one Just one Tell the ferryman return the boats I am something Going to nothing I grieve for things not yet born I wonder where they’ll go Is it all just a flight of fancy?
