MY FIDELITY

Monday, July 25th, 2011

Is it something ritual
I’m caught in, can’t break the spell?
Is it moving in my body
Is it biological?
I gotta hand it to you
You’ve got one heart ten times divided
Did you cut yourself in pieces
To get them all inside?

You dream about her, can’t you see?
She’s only shining bright
’cause...

DOUBLED UP

Saturday, July 17th, 2010

I saw a mountain from higher above.
I held your hand and I was doubled up in love.

Big sky above me, a river inside me
And I’m doubled up in love.

You’re watching your step but you fall as you’re walking.
You take it in stride but still you fall as you’re walking.

Big sky above me, a river inside me

HEAL

Sunday, July 4th, 2010

Fall for me, my southern cross, my star
Shine for me when love has gone too far
I’ve got you belly-deep in me.

Just a little breath on the water is all we need
Just a little strenght in our hearts -
Enough to heal,
Enough to heal.

Dig me out, can’t leave this love for dead
Hand to mouth we’re picking...

SUGAR

Saturday, July 3rd, 2010

On the Vermont Transit Bus
I leaned my arm into a little chink of sun,
Going somewhere older than I was,
Strapped into something tight, keeping me small.
I dug into you like rock climbing;
Too scared of coming down,
Too scared of going up,
Too scared of rockface.
I should’ve split my sides or spilled my guts or hit...
