the year of shaking fish

im here
the paddock gets a ploughing
the actress was
the paddock gets a ploughing
forgotten
the paddock gets a ploughing
confident orgasms
he walked on me last autumn & cooked his feet
& winning prizes
forgotten
im here
& winning prizes
the actress was
animals diving into the sea

the actress was
the paddock gets a ploughing
phonecard
dont hear any singing tonight
forgotten
bad circulation
& winning prizes
bad circulation
forgotten
stoned
phonecard
affair his albatross
stoned
stoned

borderline schmaltz

instead of reaching try giving
instead of reaching try giving
the tongues act
the tongues act
it was sweet as milk
it was sweet as milk
it was sweet as barley
instead of reaching try giving
dance on leftover biscuits
it was sweet as barley
it was sweet as barley
it was sweet as barley
green
the soldiers run their fingers through leaves their white hair
