dragged from grey waters

dragged from war's hungry mouth

there's a door on top of a birch tree

point me to the chequered carpets

on the roof of the albino hearse

point me to the playhouse building

where we can watch

noir movies on a saxophone

point me to the fireworks in the mist

and bury me up in the cellar

under the highway or the ocean floor

where fly riders turn

into floodraisers
