The Porringer (complete re-write)
Bottle by bottle the bowl fills
colored capsules chime
a piper's tune
Casually, there comes
a poison promise
to break all others
Cross-legged on the bed
I stare into space
no one's looking back
This crazy porringer
holds tomorrow in its orbit
a gravity all its own
To no one in particular
I say goodbye
a handful at a time
colored capsules chime
a piper's tune
Casually, there comes
a poison promise
to break all others
Cross-legged on the bed
I stare into space
no one's looking back
This crazy porringer
holds tomorrow in its orbit
a gravity all its own
To no one in particular
I say goodbye
a handful at a time
