The Swans
Brett Anderson
Continues after the ad
Huddled like rabbits
By the hole by the fence
Frozen like statues
To the chair on the lake
Clouds of birds
Make shadows on the moss
Fields of kale
All patterned with ice
Oh-ohohhh outside
Oh-ohohhh the swans rise
Continues after the ad
Curve of the river
Like the neck of a swan
And the veil of the sky
All peppered with rain
A fields of crows
They cling to the bone
And the a love unchanged
By the chatter of time
Oh-ohohhh outside
Oh-ohohhh the swans rise
