A rooster crows only when it sees the light. Put him in the dark and he'll never crow. I have seen the light and I'm crowing.
|
Two bloodless wolves whose dry throats rattle, Two crows perched on the murrained cattle, Two vipers tangled into one.
|
Woe to the house where the hen crows and the rooster is still.
|
Sometimes its a whole lot of oysters, but no pearls - then all at once you look across a crowded room and see the way the light attaches to a girl.
|
I hope everybody can find a little flame Me, I say my prayers, then just light myself on fire and walk out on the wire once again
|
It's a sad house where the hen crows louder than the cock.
|
I can't remember all the times I tried to tell myself to hold on to these moments as they pass.
|
'Rememer everything', she says when only the memory remains
|
I can't remember all the times I've tried to tell myself to hold onto these moments as they pass.
