SLACK DAYS

Slack days
Surrender summer’s song
The words wash away like rain
Into a paper cup
That caves beneath the weight
You made a lot of promises
You’ll have to make a compromise
That won’t compromise your soul
As if you had a soul to compromise

Black days
The winter solstice is
A last gasp, and endless maze
Made even darker by
The light within your mind
I made a lot of promises
I’ll have to make a compromise
That won’t compromise my soul
As if I had a soul to compromise

Last days
We amble hand in hand
And can’t understand the strain
Our words seem hollow now
That time’s run out again
We made a lot of promises
We’ll have to make a compromise
That won’t compromise our soul
As if we had a soul to compromise

Oh, I’m gone, etc.

about

dzuls Claremont, California

If you crane your neck just right—if darkness lifts the diamond kite—if bears decamp and the spider spins—you just might hear dzuls in the desert wind at night.
