about

Hexagram 29: Xi Kan ('Repeating Pit / Ghost River'). "... a critical moment that requires courage and determination in face of great fear..."

lyrics

Your home is bones
along rivers and roads
you drove it with
your eyes closed

The wall that held
the water back
with freeze and thaw
began to crack

And here I'm finding one more place it's not
Where the mirror on the water of the skies
belies a depth it can never achieve
perhaps without intent to deceive

But maybe never knowing it's true shores
boasting, over-filled, and over sides it pours

It's sublime how it lined it up
to help me break the stones apart
silent as the moonlight
and laid down from the start

They said you'd bury me
along with the others
you'd bury me
along with the others

Your home is bones
along rivers and roads
you drove it with your eyes closed
