you do not understand
so i do not understand
there is nothing to understand
*
hep!
these words the mysterious call
of a surreal nightingale
wanting to come in
during the long dark night
when i am half asleep
now though in fear at those times i choose
not to be unconscious or oblivious
it comes unbidden time and time again
because you have shown me
seeing is lovely
witness how some deal made
to allow you or i to go
where few are allowed to transgress
certainty dies propellers ejected
steering on and on
visited by the nightingale
