Chords for Persephone

Persephone, Persephone
With sparrows nesting in your cavities
How your father longs to see
You playing in a basket made of reeds
Instead of just floating
In a stillborn sea with Christmas wreaths
Persephone, Persephone
With feathers threaded through your ear
How your mother wants you to be
Splashing in a bathtub filled with teeth
Instead of drowning
Under the weight of all her needs
You'll be lifted up by bright machines
All dressed up in violets and rainbow rings
Our little queen
How we'd love to find you on our bed
All twisted up in clover leaves
With harp strings made from dewdrop beads
That you play with your teeth
Persephone, come home
Instead of just laying
In a field with rabbits
Serenading you with broken chords
