The Honeyed Fruit
Sarah Kirkland Snider

The honeyed fruit they offered dripped forgetfulness. Those who tasted it fell where they were, dreaming, their faces smeared smiling with the sweetness of the end of any desire for home. I drove them, weeping, to their rowing benches and tied them in, but still they moaned, straining to look back over their shoulders at the disappearing shore, like children carried off from their calling mothers.

Lyrics by Sarah Kirkland Snider

  And Then You Shall Be Lost Indeed   As He Looks Out to Sea   Baby Teeth, Bones, and Bullets   Calypso   Circe and the Hanged Man   Dead Friend   Home   I Died of Waiting   Nausicaa   Open Hands   The Lotus Eaters   The Stranger with the Face of a Man I Loved
