Gleaning
I pine for love, I pine for love
I stoop for refuse – your refuse is all I can keep
The landfills behind your house offer plenty:
A bolt of stiff white cloth, a baby
I pine for love, I pine for love
I stoop for off-cuts and scrapings – the waste that you leave
The landfills behind your house offer plenty:
Your reams of war plans, a baby
I pine for love, I pine for love
I stoop for off-cuts and shavings – the death that you leave
The landfills behind your house offer plenty:
Handfuls of palm fronds, a baby

Vanitas, Vanitatum
In our country we are benevolent
Out of decency, our years are bent
In our country, we are benevolent
Out of decency, our years are bent
We sit in the passage of time
We've halted the passage of time
There is nothing that God can do that we cannot do
You see it in our faces
(children age us)
You're not so far behind us
(children age us)
Our water flows with traces of our genius
(it's like a tesseract)
In your country you seem content, but
in your country, can you be content?
In your country you seem content, but
in your country, can you be content
to witness the passage of time?
Can you feel the passage of time?
There is nothing, O alien, that we cannot do

Under A Volcano
Under a volcano, where it's much hotter
I would so gladly drink your bathwater
My hands form a perfect cup where no-one can see
Under a volcano, where it's much darker
I would so gladly name you my patriarch
My knees on the burning ground, where no-one can see

Julian
Julian, you're red and black and green and blue
Julian, this world of objects betrays you
So hard and fixed – I empathize
and sweep the hair out of your eyes
Julian, my Julian
Julian, my Julian
Julian, you're purple, pink and yellow too
Julian, the world of motion rejects you
So hard and fixed – I empathize
and sweep the hair out of your eyes
