TALON OF THE BLACKWATER AND GRACES

Somebody pulled the hair right out of my head
something so small
'bout a quarter-size
not me that's pointing a knife
admit that you're wrong not to matter--

Don't you remember anything
denting the car, the machete
stealing bread and meat under your jacket--
get afraid and lie
get afraid and twist things up
your riddle
underneath I go--

scraping up the sides
and dropping down--
talon of the blackwater and graces.

Hurling shotgun shells at a wedding party
brother half-cocked at the pulpit
nausea always skimming just beneath
what's cheated you
it's all coming up--
keep it down, keep it quiet
it's a tailspin
let's just get away--
scraping up the sides
and dropping down--
talon of the blackwater and graces.

So put me in your dress and step on my shoes
tell me how much you like them
take my picture, press it all over the house
tear this roof off my head
this throbbing in my heart--
keep it down, keep it quiet
it's a tailspin
let's just get away--
scraping up the sides
and dropping down--
talon of the blackwater and graces.

keep it down, keep it quiet
it's a tailspin
let's just get away--
