The Gift - Storefront Church

Through her dreams reach arms of night

She moves each street with her eyes

A small town

Blooms upside down

And rains with lunes of iris light

Limp red tongue and tusk of light

She strides in the maw of the limelight

A faint crowd, let it wane down

Down to you

She’s gone

Off into the highway song

The cars

They whisper and they sigh

Her name

Endlessly

Strain and hunger, winter’s price

These rooms breed suits and pearls alike

When summer comes down

As a curtain before a crowd

Sh’ll know the gambit’s ruse

A game that nds as soon as

She’s gone

Off into the highway song

The cars they whisper and they sigh

Her name

Endlessly
