Triple Double Double

from Former Firsts by Construction & Destruction

/

lyrics

Who’s that craven little scribe
chording from a hovel,
dancing on the face
of the spade of the shovel?
Squawking human while the
catbirds trill triple double double?
Truth might be a ring,
a singsong thing.
The good crow scolds the peregrine from below;
it knows the robin pinned under the toe.

Not a parry for every thrust;
sometimes thwart, sometimes shush;
sometimes the wish bone is the clavicle
of a pack animal.

Murder in the morning
to feed the young.
Strange tides amok in the
Great Unsung.
Truth might be a ring,
a singsong thing.
The I in the it in the bit
in the none.
