Sometimes...

...even just a single word is too much. So, I leave it to others to express it for me...


"Killer Crane" by TV On The Radio

After the rain
A killer crane
After the rainbow

Across the sky
Her graces glide
Across the sea

Across creation
And over time
Her gracious life
Escapes its station

A cold wind blows
The day bestows
Glum proclamation

Leave it behind
Your restless mind
Your jealousies

But isolation
Demands your patience

But we fall together in time just to sing:

Sunshine I saw you through the hanging vine
A memory of what was mine fading away
Though this night heals the ground
And the moonlight steals the sound
I can leave suddenly unafraid

And after all
We're free to fall
Once all the pain goes
And how we stood
And what was good
Could last so long

In isolation
A transformation

The laughter leaves me
Leaves me blue
Emboldened on
To see it through

This life of love and letting go
A killer crane
After a rainbow

May we fall together in time just to say:

Sunshine I saw you through the hanging vine
A memory of what was mine fading away
Though this night heals the ground
And the moonlight steals the sound
I could leave suddenly unafraid

Sunshine come crawling through the hanging vines
A memory of what was mine fading away
In this night heals the ground
And the moonlight steals the sound
I could leave suddenly unafraid

Sunshine I saw you through the hanging vine
A memory of what was mine fading away
And this night heals the ground
And the moonlight steals the sound
I can leave suddenly unafraid
