lyrics

A light bulb with a patchwork skin
Of colors, as of workout clothes
Below: the sticks and stone of Spring
In low ravines the frost and snow

Camouflaging corpses blend into
Un-re-greening ground
But stars of hemoglobin burst
On the trees and whited crowns

We are hunting from aerial balloons
We are hunting from aerial balloons

Water bottles out-endure
The child residents
Piled on the riverbank
One slips into the current
Moses in another age’s
Polyethylene basket
Drifting toward deliverance
While a man hammers a casket

We are hunting from aerial balloons
We are hunting from aerial balloons
