Animal Past
Karina Gill
Paint me on the walls of Pompeii
With my eyes open wide
Paint me on the walls of Pompeii
With my mouth forever shut
I never had much to say
Now I can finally shut up
Paint me in the caves of Lascaux
Where the walls curve over head
Paint me in the caves of Lascaux
Like some souvenir of your animal past
I can't recall how it was
But I know it's gone for good
Make me like that shape in your mind
Straight across then a vertical line
