ask me how i am, ask me how i've been

and then stand and watch and hope and wait and with any luck

i will be an earthquake

and i will clear a space here

where you can put pictures and silence and sleep

and you can stop asking 'cause you'll be



you'll be

down in the centre of the earth with me

now you see me

now you don't bother looking twice



i picture myself like a column of smoke

and when questioned i see myself riding around forever on a manmade horse and you

and you



you'll be

moving randomly

you'll be

now you see me

now you don't bother looking twice



so you can go

through a wall

keep it

secret

try not

to grow

you can't do it



you'll be

riding around forever
