I've been rolling in town
And in the hills
Hitch hiking on pantlegs
I've just needed to fall
In an empty hole

And I hit with a thud
Such a big hole is this
Prosper
Let my roots eat
A spread to differing waters
Sapplings from here will surely
Provide shade for some fires

Fruits and nuts
Wheels and bolts
Fires and coats
Symbollic fling
Dirty string
Cutting waves
And poking prick
Attatched to these
The sun will
force me up like a lever
Or a wrench

If you need a bit of shade
I have plenty of dark shadows
And surely these darklings
Will provide some chill

Does she pray? Am I prey? The strength of reality demands honesty and this path is in a shovel...
