Sparrow flies over the earth; sun will rise over the earth; come out, come out, come out, Sparrow! come out, come out, come out, Sparrow! come out, come out, come out, come out! oh! Sparrow flies close to the earth; sun will rise over the earth; come out, come out, come out, Sparrow! come out, come out, come out, Sparrow! come out, come out, come out, come out! oh! ..hold on!

Mirror 03:27
Why do I keep searching for the end over and over? Why do I keep thinking of things then over and over? Maybe it's the way that I look in the mirror in the morning when the mirror is a liar and I can't see myself? never, no, no never, no, never know why never know, no never know Why do I keep falling in myself over and over; memories keep sinking in deep wells over and over Maybe it's the way that I look in the mirror in the morning when the mirror is a liar and I can't see myself? never, no, no never, no, never know why never know, no never know

Moksha 02:01
There's a pulsing behind my eyes, and I can't seem to shake it And I can't seem to wake up, and I can't seem to wake up. There's a pulsing within my heart, and it pounds every orderly thought, 'till I can't even shake it off, 'till I can't even shake it off. And if I stay this storm, is Moksha there? Mokshamu galada

[from the poem by Tristan Tzara] [The airplane weaves telegraph wires and the fountain sings the same song At the rendezvous of the coachman the aperitif is orange but the locomotive mechanics have blue eyes.] The lady has lost her smile in the woods.
5.
Six pebbles aslant upon sea of black ink; when mounted, sink into the empty bottom ocean floor; flailing upwards. Six fingers' motions scrape against night cloud; an empty, soft shout and all the while, airs smoke against my spine; all in due time. In due time.. A lightning bolt which flays and then unfurls; your fingers grip, curled golden hair I hear her singing, too; dark red upon you, a cherry-worn rust flamingo as its prey; a notion of day and all the while there's smoke against my spine; all in due time. In due time..
