Phantoms Now

from Songs To Eat Popcorn By by Bill White

/

lyrics

why do you seldom do
what you dream of doing
when you do, you often find
its hardly worth the doing
you would be better served
were you content
with portions given freely
with consent

life is all around us
but seldom is within us
flowers open and close every day
some of us havent opened in months and weeks and years
for fear of the roots beneath us

life is in the street dogs
who talk with each other
as we sleep
and the rooster who crows
before we wake,
before we weep.

once we sprang into life
like birds from a bough
those days are past
we are all phantoms now
