Down

I found a place without a chair.
Nowhere to sit,
nowhere to sleep.
I found a girl without hair.
She let me rest on her knee.

Never felt this before,
never felt such peace!
Never felt this before.

In carloads,
I move my life across the street.
Embarrassed,
independent,
I have nothing
to eat.

My girl-without-hair
opens her shirt for me to drink.
I falter
before raising my tongue,
before taking a sip.

Never felt this before,
never felt such peace!
Never felt this before.

fly, fly, fly.
