The Moon is a Spider

A song conceived in the heart of lockdown which alludes to more joyful pastures of experience. 

Lyrics

Angel of joy

Where have you been?
It aint been fun since 
you last were around
with your vest and your jeans
I am sorry I failed
to grasp every breath
I thought we had time
for the pages to turn
for the gems and the bells

Bring me a different year
when nights smelt of love and beer
there’s only worry here,
angel of joy make the dust and the mist disappear 

Do you mind if I stop
with the twists and the turns
it’s hard to uncurl 
the snakes and the spurs 
and the thoughts in my head
Remember the times 
when you pondered around
we would talk and coalesce 
with doves in our chests 
and light in our shrouds. 

Bring me some southern light
to set right my faulty eyes 
I am tired of being sick and blind, 
angel of joy, carry me back, to heat of the night.

LENA KALINKA
Lena Kalinka,
Is there space in your hear for a narcissist thinker?
The day has been long all I need is a friend
Lend me your lap tomorrow I promise to work on my art, my Russian Cherie, roll one for me.
Tonight let’s pretend we are in garden of dreams, like a work by Chagall or Henry Matisse
Show your blue wings, butterflies find in the pools of your eyes.
Lena Kalinka,
Do you have any words for this amateur drinker?
The day has been long and I am stuck in my mind.
Lend me your tongue, I need to unsing all that I have sung,
It’s so hard to become what everyone sees,
But maybe tonight we can be whatever we want,
A modernist poem by Pound or Rimbaud, show me those sweet lines,
Mad poets find in the pools of your eyes.

And bring me wine to exorcise the devils within and all of my sins, tonight we can win, just for a while, my flame in the night.

Lena Kalinka,
I need your embrace it’s the middle of winter, 
It’s so cold inside that sometimes I cry from the snow in my eyes,
Its everyone’s dream to not be alone,
But maybe tonight we can entangle our bones and be like a song by general Cohen,
give me that sweet verse, he stole from your purse and the pools in your eyes.

04. - Lena Kalinka M04

Tuesday night, alone in a bar, where is Jacques Coustau where is Kofi Annan? 
Won’t someone come and pretend that they are in love, or dance a tune which no one knew could be danced like that.

The moon is a spider, does it hang in the air or crawl in my mind? I quiver beside her, will she go for the mask or give me a try, I pray to the swing of the night.  

Early rise, like the day before, if one more twerp curates my work I think I will explode, 
When this job ends please take some time before you start again, the city feeds from souls like you who are in the red.   

The moon is a spider, does it hang in the air or does it crawl in my mind? I quiver beside her, will she go for the mask or give me a try, I pray to the swing of the night.  

O wintry blues what did you do, my friends, they stay home and watch the evening news,
If this won’t end I swear my friend I’ll go and cut the thread that links ITV and BBC to the spin of the world. 

The moon is a spider, does it hang in the air or does it crawl in my mind? I quiver beside her, will she go for the mask or give me a try, I pray to the swing of the night.
