Back Rankers

They came from West Main,
Back rankers in the mud.
Goddamn, these kids are out for blood.
Radio played Sketches Of Spain,
3rd-generation cassette mud,
Give us something to make our rivers flood.
Blades without a harvest,
arrows without slings,
young without impatience
for all important things.

Indifferent Stars

As above, so below,
men with wine dark eyes said so,
but they don't care what hangs on me.
The firmament not impressed
if I'm hiding my unrest,
just sends my ship back out to sea.
Indifferent stars,
Don't go too far, stay where you are for now.
Indifferent stars,
Compassion or not, you're all that I've got anyhow.
As above, so below,
gorge's city girls said so,
but they don't sleep as well as you'd think.
Noble truths, perfect storms,
never hinged on when you're born,
or sunlight on the seas you drink.
Indifferent stars,
Don't go too far, stay where you are for now.
Indifferent stars,
Compassion or not, you're all that I've got anyhow.
Indifferent stars,
In any amount, you might not account for shit.
Indifferent stars,
But you're on a leash 'til I've made my peace with it.
