The News About William
Calexico

4 in the morning the sidewalk's asleepnDogs on the porch,nSpiders on the leafnShipwrecked by night sailing through daysnnNobody noticed the slipping awaynConnecting the dots with thorns in his sidenBoarded up the Windows with pain and with pridenThe music box broken that once was his soulnnIts sad little song spinning out of controlnThen came the storm that washed the roads outnClosed both his eyes and pointed straight southnSecond line drums marched into the seannWhile the clouds overhead cried mutinynThey parted for Cathy and her bitter newsnAs her words fail and the sky grew dimnRecalled how close to that exit l've beennnOurs not to reply, ours not to reason whynThe news about WilliamnThe lifeline retreatsnDesire for releasenThe thorns in his side
