Rings Of Saturn

[00:13.03] Upside down and inside out and on all eights
[00:16.27] You're like a funnel-web
[00:17.46] Like a black fly on the ceiling
[00:19.85] Skinny, white haunches high in the skyward
[00:22.53] And a black oily gash crawling backwards across the carpet to smash all over everything
[00:28.85] Wet, black fur against the sun going down
[00:32.34] Over the shops and the cars and the crowds in the town
[00:39.00] And this is the moment, this is exactly where she is born to be
[00:44.86] Now this is what she does and this is what she is
[00:50.77] And this is the moment, this is exactly where she is born to be
[00:55.51] This is what she does and this is what she is
[01:00.42]
[01:16.38] Her eyes that look at me through a rainy hair
[01:19.36] Two round holes where the air buckles and rushes in
[01:23.21] Her body, moon blue, was a jellyfish
[01:25.83] And I'm breathing deep and I'm there and I'm also not there
[01:29.41] And spurting ink over the sheets but she remains, completely unexplained
[01:35.07] Or maybe I'm just too tongue-tied to drink it up and swallow back the pain
[01:40.49] I thought slavery had been abolished
[01:42.99] How come it's gone and reared its ugly head again?
[01:48.89] And this is the moment, this is exactly what she is born to be
[01:54.42] And this is what she does and this is what she is
[02:00.83] And this is the moment, this is exactly what she is born to be
[02:05.68] This is what she is and this is what she does
[02:10.87]
[02:26.25] And this is the moment, this is exactly what she is born to be
[02:32.24] And this is what she does and this is what she is
[02:38.80] And this is the moment, this is exactly what she is born to be
[02:44.99] Then this is what she does and this is what she is
[02:51.12] And now she's jumping up with her leaping brain
[02:53.78] Stepping over heaps of sleeping children
[02:56.65] Disappearing and further up and spinning out again
[03:00.02] Up and further up she goes, up and out of the bed
[03:03.81] Up and out of the bed and down the hall where she stops for moment and turns and says
[03:08.92] Are you still here?
[03:10.49] And then reaches high and dangles herself like a child's dream from the rings of Saturn
[03:16.39]
