birds

We are all fading into nothing
look at each other and do our best to deny it
the sky throws light purple to black, light red, light yellow and blue
as the sun withdraws it's heat, wilpena pound unfolds like a woman in love
I am strong today
My nature is true
I sing today
Just like a rossetta bird at play
When I fall into nothing, nothing will be taken away

There's a rattle at your window as the rain belts down
It rattles again and sounds the same
pull back the curtains and there in the dark is a water logged crow with nowhere to go
open the window
open the window
open the window  

I want sit in harmony with every pebble on the beach
take my idenity
twist the plan
there's a magpie eating out of the palm of my hand
the seagulls  they smile and they dance
being fed for them is a moment of chance
spiritual surrender
take a bow
spiritual surrender
 I'll make it there somehow
