LOW

montreal april 15/ 82

low as low as low can be
hardly one drop
of energy

close as close as close to death
as anyone could
ever be
 
body shakes and head is dull
all people like an anchor be
around my neck
in dirty sea
pulling pulling pulling me
 
we've been here before and did survive
through god's will god knows why
but this time
where is there to go
we've seen enough of life to know
