noises of wheels turning and clocks ticking,
gizmos of uncertain origins squeaking along,

Knock it into the water

Guns of SummerHow I now long to sing a song
With "guns" as its only word
A solitary droning tone
Fiercely sung such it need be heard
Higher than half its height
Should our banner fly
As this sorrowful summer simmers on

Long after July 4th; I keep thinking they’ll stop,
And hope so soon for the sake of brotherhood!
