Empty No Teeth
Time was, time was, empty, no teeth
Mouth was thirsty, swallowed, breathing
Carried to me, deeply drinking
We word, word we, to seek, to see
Time was, time was, knowing, leaving
Empty-hearted, leaning, slanted
Autumn, tumble, compost, leave much
Holding, hoping, calling, going
Time was, time was, growing
Time was, climbing, all fours, all fours
Time was all ours, for hours and hours
Daylight creeping, away, leaving, leaving
Time was, time was, empty, no teeth
Time was, time was, empty, no teeth
