The Thing You Think You're In (spoken and sung)




(spoken & sung)
.
.
Today go do the things you say
and say the things you do.
Try to find out in your usual way
if anything new is true
.
about the thing you think you’re in,
or if you’ve made the cut.
If not: at least you’ve blundered in
to find at last you’ve shut
.
the door on ambiguity
and found one truth intact:
agleam with sheer congruity –
your empty head’s a fact.
.
Keep your final act at bay,
blithering toward the abyss.
Get on your knees midday to pray,
slithering forward like this.
.
