I took my shirt off in the yard
But too deliberately
It was a mistake to rely on having my treasures sink

To wait there where my shoulders glowed in golden beams
I ignored my gold swollen purse
And I pursed my lips in thirst
For that reassuring kiss you never gave to me
And then cursing my own buoyancy
My blessed breaths just annoyed me
Until the ball of glowing moon said some sense to me
When I saw it beaming down I noticed my two feet
And the obvious expanse
And my flickering romance
With a swan under my coat
And this song I send from throat
With the dawn and getting older
And my golden glowing shoulders
I climbed mountains by myself and found you
