lyrics

AMBER CIRCLE

old Baltic blood
of trees centuries’ve hardened
into this amber string
fer when you begin teething

& Rumi says
love is an astrolabe but
I’m sure you’ll need yer amber string
when your heart starts teething

now, mind what money can do
just ask a loan shark or two
what a parent’ll do
just to put their children through school

take a squizz at Salome’s ma
asking for the head of John the
Baptist on a silver platter
drizzled with his grisly blood

his blood

fortunes’ll fluctuate
& power’s a big headache
but working hard is better than
hardly working at all

don’t be dazzled by
the kind that’ll tantalize ya
with her peacock skirts & demands
a ring of diamond bigger’n her ego is

as fer bequests, I’ve two
a couple of wings & these firm family roots
show’m all what you can do
& I’ll say “that’s my boy!” with unbridled joy

now, I’ve never been one fer math
but, like a hologram, I can see that
should you divide a parent’s love
it will still retain its whole

it’s whole
