Hospital Bed

We spread our blankets over the lake

I peed tight in a jar

I tried to leave

But he held my arms and head in the lake

So I grab on hold to the spider's neck

and ride out of town

Because I'm sick and the days are long

I tried, and I tried

To squeeze the blue out of the sky

The yellow out of the sun

In that big invisible moment

The kid on my shoulders

With the time we'll make it into sand

Agreed into keeping your hand

Like a rabbit in a human skin coat

He'll dance on the yard

Like a wolf flipping good-bye notes

You'll howl at the sky

So, show your cat teeth to the light

and grab unto his main vein
