Grandfather's Hanging

by Dirty Projectors

on Slaves' Graves and Ballads (2004)

The skyline is darker than the sky at night
Like you are a black hole
In time, in westward way
Like aerospace umbilical cords
We will consume the universe
Outside in the sun, the siding through the shadow into zig-zag
Its reflections exposed the bad posture that chiropractice
Corrected during waking hours
Corrected during waking hours
Rivers to the sea, like shy wolves to the dance floor, swim the corridor
