Four four almost finite When I peeked inside I did not see chalice or grail God wasn't there In the darkness The curtain tearn I already saw Black ships ate the sky And flying moons Scare children The dusk blue breaks And the bluebottles laugh The trees all fall and I hear collapse But smile and nod and watch the dim sunset Whilst the cocktails clash Bleak glass domes Make shivers in my peacock eye And I am all Thumbelina I died for you all And if you took the time To take your time And sleep this time all the way home And watch the eggtimers bubble and wink There's a face behind a gun That sleeps behind the owl The matineé is showing in town sunset And we tumble into the cardboard sunset Dim Birdsong Teethless Sunset The flowers smile
