Generate meaning
1
at your house the smell of our still living human bodies and oven gas
2
you pray to nothing out loud
3
two first names and an ampersand
4
embroidered proudly on a kitchen towel
5
you're a beautiful and violent word
6
with the skinny neck of a chinese bird
7
in a fading ancient painting
8
and if you're in heaven waiting
9
you made it there fighting
10
the tightest kite string
11
in a bad storm with lightning
12
and now these few presidents
13
frowning in my pocket
14
can persuade no god
15
to let me let you talk, oh
16
these few presidents
17
frowning in my pocket
18
can persuade no god
19
to let me let you off
20
even though i haven't seen you in years
21
yours is a funeral i'd fly to from anywhere
22
i thought i had a pebble in my sock
23
i pulled it off and shook out a wasp
24
it stumbled out lost, and without a pause
25
unstung as i was, still i stomped it
26
i thought, there is no paved street worthy
27
of your perfect scandanavian feet
28
while my crooked chinese fingers groped
29
the machinery of your throat
30
and now these few presidents
31
frowning in my pocket
32
can persuade no god
33
to let me let you talk, oh
34
these few presidents
35
drowning in my pocket
36
can persuade no god
37
to let me let you off
38
even though i haven't seen you in years
39
yours is a funeral i'd fly to from anywhere
