STONES AND ICE

Music and Lyrics by Thomas Carter. Copyright Verlaine Records 2005.


Wrap up cold in jumpers, gloves, and in your boots
We're walking to the stoney beach.

Tired legs in stone-washed denim,
Break to rhythms under Heaven,

Hair and earlobes full of sand,
Hands that grip harder than clams...

Your tight, you feel as if you'll break,
Nothing but splinters in your face,

Modern Homes and Modern Love,
By fake coal-fires, collapsed in drugs.

I love you, Charlotte,
Each crow in you that digs into the hardest law.

Dreams, that get blown down,
Leaves lost to winter gales,
I'm, not as strong as you before...

Silence.

Silent in-between the roar.

So silent.

A silence that could be no more.


***

Flowers laid by frozen lakes
Where ice had cracked and been replaced by
Deepest water,
Pitchist black,
Too cold to stay and relax....

Priests and Clerics,
Combinations,
Silken robes ad railway stations,
Hope in Congress,
Future boy,
Dreaming of,
Thinking back on
Holes

On hope.
