so you were born with butterfly bones
just hanging on to the flower-stem
tangled us up into bundles of nerves
just hanging on by a thread
turning our house to a hospital room
the heart to a paddling pool
turning our stomachs now
over & over & out
a transmission of truth
& all the lights go off & on
& all the gardens grow
& all of you as well is me
the secret that everyone knows
here you arrive like a leaf on the ground
here you create the new world
we thought we were strong & we know we are now
we can't believe what we've endured
there is a rock in the pit of my stomach
there is a hole in the side of my heart
a perfect imprint of the line between life & death
left a symmetrical scar
& all the lights go off & on
& all the gardens grow
& all of you as well is me
the secret that everyone knows
& all the lights go off & on
& all the gardens grow
& all of you as well is me
the secret that everyone knows.
