Mother

Lyrics for Mother

The way the street looked: Dim and polluted, So have I felt when I walked upon. The way the air seemed: Gray fog diluted, So do I feel when I'm breathed upon. Ominous head spoke you ain't so good. Poorly the sow joked Trashed and words muttered. I want to be mothered. I want you to give Attention to my belly button. Mother. I want to have Bobby pins stuck in my ears. And drown away the endless days Ridding soon the troubled ways. Embedded down with a warm frown In a wrong and impure dream. Anchored down with a mermaid In sound halcyon sea. Lure me in her salt. Liquid canyon far beneath. My mother savior With her goddess touch Brushes hands through my hair.
