Bring Hell Water

a code of misconduct
nothing he could laugh at
bent his head
prayed right through it
made amends and broke bread...

all this has disappeared
evaporated
or been concealed
(but this was still here..)

drown the future in scorn
secrets no more
vision's all torn

he encouraged this
yet displaced it
completed the circle
and embraced it.

i
woke up an angel
and told her secrets
she promised
to keep closed her lips
hand slides to her hips
i thought i remembered a kiss
right before day began.
