Kit Kelen #701 - I must go into hiding


701
I must go into hiding

I take the blindfold trail
hands tied -- all my strength to balance
no one will know my plan

the more I say
the more secret I am

there's nakedness in where I've gone
let's call it Secret Valley

something's hidden in my head -- its heart
and soul adorns the body
so

I'm well under words by now
the weather's all over my head

there's been too much of me altogether
I've made too much noise

tuck me under some old idea
I'll think it up again

stockwhip and blanket
I am given this time to rust

none of my ink's invisible
there's no punishment, reward

but that we live it now
there's no go-round again

I must go to the great below
no beyond of that

helicopter hum above
of they're all after us

but they'll never find me
not in so many words

I fold into a moment, gone
in all the stars of this sky's catch

I must have been the bubble burst
I won't be comprehended

the way we fade is memory
less less of me to be

yet still always poised to strike
will you come with me there?
