How We Live.

How We Live

   Modern I live
   In a modern home
   One wall a window
   To frame flocks of crows.

   In a modern home
   There grow motives
   To frame flocks of crows:
      They darken rooms.

   There grow motives
   For instance like mushrooms
      They darken rooms
      I'll remark no further

   For instance like mushrooms
   He lives on dirt
      I'll remark no further
      About how he thrives.

   He lives on dirt
   And never worries
   About how he thrives.
   They're all like that

   And never worry.
   Stars spackle their ceiling.
   They're all like that.
   I look up to heavy beams.

   Stars spackle their ceiling
   While my roof hangs low.
   I look up to heavy beams
   When blackbirds cloud my window.

   In a modern home
   I look upward to heavy beams
      They darken the rooms
      I'll remark no further
