Tunnel of Goats I

Coil

The river gone, so why go on? 
And the sun dissolves like [an August? a mongoose?!] 
No [offence?] to the hummingbirds 
No reward from the sun 
On it was a hover-firefly 
Even ??? been there alive 
All hummingbirds must die 
Do you believe in debts? 
Are you ??? some [ghosts? guests?]? 
I want to [believe?] 
It's a certainty of animals 
I want to go among the [birds?] 
I will smoke across an ocean, a lagoon of fish 
For fly with suicide's-eye birds 
I'm so tired of the [seasons?] and the breeze and the 
river 
??? wasps [pollinating sores? pollen and mutating 
exhaust?] 
And their altered states of [merriment?] 
Want to go under ??? 
I want you and [I need you? I'm near you?] but I can't 
find you 
I'm allergic to disease 
Christ [I wanna be quick? Madonna, be quick?] with 
[hummingbirds?] keeps falling to his knees 
And then I reach the station in the heaven of glass 
I'll say a little prayer for you 
Then I'll cut off the heads of the birds that fly 
All hummingbirds must die 
All hummingbirds must die 
There is no wrong, so why go on? 
There is no wrong, so we go on
