Harvest Fires

Black crows whisper
through fields of blue haze.
At the waning moon crickets chant,
and the meaning of your face
ripples on the black pool
where I cross to climb the hill -
Murder at the black pool,
where you're waiting for me still

Death by drowning, trial by fire,
Your callow needs dig deeply
at my every dark desire -
Murder at the black pool
Murder at the black pool

In harvest fires I burn the chaff,
I gather up the leaves that fell,
I overturn the soft, brown earth,
I say farewell.

Men of branches
swallowed in flame,
Into the coal and ashes
I softly speak your name.
Yemaya, Yemaya,
take this dark dream from me
to the grey, green sea

In harvest fires I burn the chaff,
I gather up the leaves that fell,
I overturn the soft, brown earth,
I say. . .
