lyrics

I m more chop woody than snap fingery
Bored onlooking I act eagerly
Ive forgone cooking to snack fiendishly
Smores on cookies in craft eateries
Transpose Oreos into high art
Tableau scorpio in a sidecar
Back road morning glow made of pine tar
Lab coat for the pulp when I grind hard
Antidote for the broke is a pry bar
Manifold mortal soul in a brine jar
Animal sporting clothes and a blind spot
Animals forage openly in my yard
I hit a deer with a head nod
He hits me back with a head twitch
We picking up where we left off
A couple nodes in the nexus
With the tendency get lost
And some greens in our breakfast
Souls sing with our best thoughts
Flesh crawls with a death wish

Made friends with the frostbite
Say amen to the long night
Wavelengths gone sloth like
Frames get cropped like maize in a combine
Its okay I’m alright
No my pain aint all mine
Throw another log on the crossfire
Sometimes too slow is on time

Hands rough and the woodshed full
Stashed up cause it could get cold
Belly is a hearth skin is a windmill
Elements are harsh
I’m a bard with a windchill
Three years on a farm was a big deal
Ten years on a farm is a bit real
No Im really not a quitter no
But I was faced with a decision yes
It was make it home for dinner
Or a winter in the fissure
With a mitten full of splinters
Now its me and the mischief
And she’s in my best interest
Its a gift just to exist
But I got things on my wishlist
Still I chop wood and its all good
Im mixing pleasure with business

Made friends with the frostbite
Say amen to the long night
Wavelengths gone sloth like
Frames get cropped like maize in a combine
Its okay I’m alright
No my pain aint all mine
Throw another log on the crossfire
Sometimes too slow is on time

Spherically aware
Lover of the absurd

Cosmic noodling
Syntactical origami
Chopping wood
Chuggin' bubbles
