plovers


i am on my way to narragansett bay
from route 128 from out of mt hope bay
(and after aprils may i think id like to stay)
winter was so dead i could not leave my bed 
and every single day i thought of you and said


i am like a piping plover
so every time that i come over
i keep on testing out the water 
i pull away when you get closer
and you are like a piping plover
so every time youre coming over
you keep on testing out the water
you pull away when i get closer 


i am on my way to massachusetts bay
i cannot stand a day away from where i stay
winter was so brick i buried all my shit
and every single day id think of you and say

Plovers

weird shade blue

today it got me
im giving myself up to my body
to tell the truth its kinda there without me
it makes me shake it makes me heave
there is a light on where im going
but my hands are made of little bones
well i got the teeth and i got the comb
but i cant call you on the phone

you dont know what you thought you knew
my back is broken and my toes are blue
i heard the spirit of the lord blow through
the trees on massachusetts avenue
and in the evening when i came to you
the sky was changing to a weird shade blue

today i lost it
some shit i had inside my pocket
what i found out when i took off my coat
wet sleeves so i just let it go
back home and body lets me know
heres george say hello
in parking lots on empty roads
i cant know where i will go

my bodys in trouble and so is my head
wheels up i am almost dead
wet wet and my arms are like lead
can i get river instead

Weird Shade Blue

pvd river

who could i be
i am the people who are looking at me
what did i see
i saw jane and she saw me

so i go to the providence river
to make my perspective bigger

everything in me
empties out into the deep blue sea
swimming with the geese
i escape main street

so i look in the providence river
to make my reflection bigger

(the river flooded
the banks got muddy
big and blue
its what i do)

PVD River

i was stoned at the stop and shop
so i couldnt tell if that was you or not
all that i know is the things that you bought
a dozen yellow peaches from the stop and shop

one hit would send me to the deep
moby dick ive been missing u for weeks
some nights i can barely sleep
wondering if youll wash up on this beach

i think i saw you at the falafel shop
but the scarf around your face was tied tightly in a knot
in winter time strangers rarely talk
and there was something different bout the way that you walked 

one hit would send me to the deep
moby dick ive been missing u for weeks
some nights i can barely sleep
wondering if youll wash up on this beach

i saw you at the queer coffee co op
but itd been some time since we had talked
three cups already sent me over the top            
so i just passed through the parking lot

isaac kase
