Porcelain

Porcelain - Thursday

City of blue tile

Figure in ceramics

Where we reach out

Grab for porcelain

But it's too fragile to hold

And it shatters in our hands

In time seasons will seal these shards

Into the slits that denote your wrists

Death is the answer

Calculations composed of motions that are the same

Secret and different

A missing alphabet with a message for us

When people die

They take a piece of us with them

And holes in clouds are minutes passing

Rescind this line and several ties

The skyline unfolds into explanation

That sometimes words give up

And silently walk off the edge of the page

And here the cry opens up reveals the word inside

The crack in the porcelain

The crack in the porcelain

The crack in the porcelain

The silent line of sky-lit eyes show

The silent line of sky-lit eyes show

The silent line of sky-lit eyes show

The silent line of sky-lit eyes show

The silent line of sky-lit eyes show

The silent line of sky-lit eyes show

The silent line

When people die

They take a piece of us with them

And holes in clouds are minutes passing

Rescind this line and several ties

The skyline unfolds into explanation
