Lyrics
Rain patters on a sea that tilts and sighs Fast-running floors, collapsing into hollows Tower suddenly, spray-haired. Contrariwise A wave drops like a wall: another follows Wilting and scrambling, tirelessly at play Where there are no ships and no shallows Above the sea, the yet more shoreless day Riddled by wind, trails lit-up galleries: They shift to giant ribbing, sift away Such attics cleared of me! Such absences!
