The Hanged Man

My eyes are tired, still so much to read
O to be away, forever asleep
Forgiving spray wets my moustache, an azure sky replete
With cloudy gardens, let the light in
Take care, old fantasy

Paraffin lamp illumines a fight between seabirds
Holy white guarding myself from getting hurt
"Don't be silly, don't do this here
Not now, not ever again
It pains me to remind you you're more trouble than you're worth"

Row away from lonely shores, find someplace calm
A place where nightshade's settled down and ennui gives a damn
Is this still a dream? Am I just wanting it to be?
These storm winds suggest nothing, nothing to
Me

I'm coming to you now, teeming - all in tinges
Happy sighs, wondering why, all present in your big, grey eyes
And then, just like a tragic play, a curtain of black descends
The reality of never, stretching out
Forever
