A Noiseless Noise

Absence

Cold moon comes down curdling

through reddenin' leaves

falling falling

Know you every tear in these woods

Know you every place of good and not-good

'Tween sleep and wake and bellyache

each path unhealed and stumpied

Charkened embers The end of summer

Reeve the river's tongue of silver

Come away love and leave your wandering

Just a noiseless noise

just a gawly girl

just a bogus boy

Trapes the fields of feasen

to a chammer of not-sleeping

Go home now love leave your wandering
