Yndi Halda
A Sun​-​Coloured Shaker
To splay your fingers
To balance on the toes
To move as graceful as a willow
To pull the body up
To know what the head knows
To move in worship of miracles

Like a terrible comet coming to hit the Earth
Writing a list of things you would say first
Like a terrible comet coming to hit the Earth
Writing a list of things you would say first

Identify the footsteps
Hear them as my own
Have I forgotten [how to see you??]?
To make a sun rise out of rhythm
High up on the shadow
Move as graceful as a deer in its light

Like a terrible comet coming to hit the Earth
Writing a list of things you would say first
Like a terrible comet coming to hit the Earth
And writing a list of things you would say first

[Sing?] to weather, weather high
Black cloud
Sing to the [heather, heather?]
Move covered in dew
Sing to weather, weather high
Black cloud
Sing to the [heather, heather?]
Move covered in dew

(Finish off that final tree
Sink its ash into the sea)
Empty out that final light
Empty [patterns?] into night
Finish off that final tree
Sink its ash into the sea
Empty out that final light
Empty [patterns?] into night
Finish off that final tree
Sink its ash into the sea
Empty out that final light
Empty [patterns?] into night
Finish off that final tree
Sink its ash into the sea
Empty out that final light
Empty [patterns?] into night
Finish off that final tree
Sink its ash into the sea

To be a river walker
Where the water is old
To be a sun walker
Where the air is cold
Uncertain on the shadow
Lightning lit up the sunburn
I'm passing through
Never shade
Pure flowing as a river

That makes the sun rise out of rhythm
High up on the shadow
Move as graceful as a deer in its light

Like a terrible comet coming to hit the Earth
And writing a list of things you would say first
Like a terrible comet coming to hit the Earth
And writing a list of things you would say first
