Sky-Maker
Sleep it's hard to tell asleep from waking
Paint the sky in patterns
A strand of thread that's sewn together
Made of stone and faces known
What we thought was a butterfly
You called a constellation
And put it in the sky
Gather stones with fingers that are threaded bones
Tree-shaker star-collector
Gather bones
And throw them into a speckled-sky
Sky-maker, sky-contriver
Made the sky his home
What we thought was a crocodile
You saw as constellation and put in the sky
Three red stones in the middle of our home
Sleep it's hard to tell awake from dreaming
Paint the sky in patterns
A strand of thread that's sewn together
Made of stone and faces known
What we thought was a butterfly
You called a constellation
And put it in the sky
Gather stones with fingers that are threaded bones
Tree-shaker star-collector
Gather bones
And throw them into a speckled-sky
Sky-maker, sky-contriver
Made the sky his home
What we thought was a crocodile
You saw as constellation and put in the sky
Three red stones in the middle of our home
Sleep it's hard to tell awake from dreaming
