Birch Canoe 08:17
The Kings of the Dusk held a meeting Discussing the last Pyrrhic coup How many were saved from buckets and smoke In the battle of the birch canoe

Evensong 02:41
The moon is bright and white Giving to us who hide from The sun's inquisition. Then in evensong look for a place to lay long Lay long, Lay long. We whispered in chant of things that once passed An effigy of unplundered treasure When suddenly, as if she knew we were wrong Were wrong, Were wrong, She left us.

Sometimes the shore gets a little too close As we caplin become kings of the dusk Aiming for pleasure of the fog on our fins But really just starting to rust. The rocks an alliterative grave for Crabs caught caring As their shells lay in hundreds, broken By the gulls who were daring To dive a little deeper No, (not) good enough No matter, they have begun a pointless endeavor As the approaching shore calls the tide's bluff. The kings of the dusk but not the dark shore Now lay helplessly by As men with beef buckets collect their souls And the queens, they quietly cry.
9.
You waited a long time for me to drop by By the time I arrived I was stale and dry I had fall in my heart and summer in my hair So I wintered in your arms at the first sight of cold air. Self-incompatible like the hickory tree I needed you and you needed me Last lovers faded quickly as I grew crueler They became jewels on the crown of a fanciful ruler Spring came so I flew back to my nest And settled my heart for a lonesome rest Planted marigold seeds in neat, straight rows Fed the finches and threw my scraps out to the crows Self-incompatible like the hickory tree I needed you and you needed me Last lovers faded quickly as I grew crueler They became jewels on the crown of a fanciful ruler
