Kite in a Tree
Charlie Peacock

I'm forgetting my own history

Playing loose with the mysteries

And the steam will not rise from my engine barrel

I'm falling through a hole in the bedroom white ceiling

Twisting and spinning down to the sky

There's a greater evidence to be known and seen

When belief inches closer to the scars

Who knows? Who cares?

Who wiped away my tears?

Was it Abraham, father to the stars?

Nickels, dimes and dollar bills

I love them dusty corners

They smell like lonesome fields in the shadows of the day

There's a deeper river running

If only it would find me

Cut me like a canyon, wild and free.

Shine that light in my eyes

till I'm blind with vision

Lead me down to the river

And drown me in the poetry,

Your imagination.

The aching feeds a fantasy

The stage is set for God only knows

The ear is hearing whistles made of wooden reeds

And telephones are ringing

A girl in blue is singing

And all I can hear is the sound of failure

This is not the promise of the glory of kings

It's our breast stroke, a heart don't

Give and take delight

There's that pain in my chest

that always comes on

right before the big fight.

If belief is only a construct,

my own little thumb-suck,

Then I'm a kite in a tree, a kite in a tree.

If belief is only a construct,

my own little thumb-suck,

I'm a kite in a tree, a kite in a tree.

And I'm a kite in a tree, just a kite in a tree.

I'm a kite in a tree, a kite in a tree
