so light your incense and put one in each corning of the room
and hope that calming scent will follow you where ever you may go
let’s fill the room with candles
pretend the power’s out
and listen to the wind and rain as we eat dinner in the soft light
watch the shadows from the small flames up against the bookshelf
try to ignore whenever someone turns on a light
tell them the powers out, what are you doing?
stop the car and climb that hill next to the highway
and look down at the lights of all the houses beneath us
and up through the power lines to the stars above
then back to the car
the sun is almost rising now
watch the shadows of the guardrail passing on the pavement
as we drive all day trying to make it to the ocean
so lets go sit by the water till the sun sets
and we’ll find the perfect rocks to keep in our pockets
