I ve often dreamt of a conversation
that just keeps coming up again and again.
We re sitting in the Baby Bar bereft
at a shadowy table out past the sentences end.
From until it s no longer fun
til that s no longer relevant.
From until we re no longer one
til the bona-fide embodiment of an endless
emergency without end.
We re an endless emergency without end
We often stop in these conversations
things we say here stay here forever amen.
When everything seems either funny or lousy
funny or lousythat s where it usually ends.
From until we re no longer fun
til that s no longer relevant.
From until we re no longer one
til that s no longer permanent.
From the last survivors of those terms
to the bona-fide embodiment
of an endless emergency
without end.
We re an endless emergency
without end.
We re an endless emergency
without end
but
your finger starts to wiggle
and
landscapes emerge
