Yesterday, I was working in my yard when I saw a Swinging in the and he was all beat up and hobbling I got a look and his foot was mangled I was woken up earlier by what I was the cat tangled But it was him who got it bad the cat that night down the hill when he slipped under the fence I brought myself up to him out; he found a nook under the air conditioner I pointed him out to Caroline, she crouched down and he was shaking and of fear And when she up, I asked, "Baby, why you crying?" She said, "Because he's cute and he's there and he's dying"
I went up to my and I got a call from Justin He was in San and Godflesh was playing Caroline drove me halfway there where I met And we drove to the and we parked out in front of the DNA Justin and us, we had some laughs and we photographs backstage And our guts were protruding and all of them and we just kept laughing and laughing and laughing and laughing and and laughing and laughing and laughing and laughing and laughing and laughing and laughing and laughing Laughing and laughing and laughing and laughing and laughing and and laughing Laughing and laughing and laughing and laughing and laughing and laughing and
And Godflesh took the stage, Tony and I, we stood there floored Drum hammered and feedback blazed For a moment, everybody grew While Justin tuned his guitar; a church, it got so quiet Just for a minute, and then they all together Like a car off a cliff, we crashed and burned over and over and and again They threw hard guttural B-flats [?] like a tough Roberto "Hands of Stone" in the seventh round Davey June 16, 1983 Godflesh [?] like an early Mark "Gator" lunged at the mic like a hungry grey white He was on fire, giving it everything he had and it that night! Tearing out his and it came to a screeching halt A relentless and beautiful voice, a 70 assault And then he bowed down and he set his seven electric guitar down And screeched to holy hell and disappeared and off went the crowd
Then we had pizza and I came back to my in the city 4AM, I watched movies and my ears were ringing And I Caroline out at the house We talked about the concert, about the possum down in the
And the air came through my window And the sound of foghorns, and when I woke was down in LA Tony had an open house day And I looked out at And Caroline was on her way back from Lake I got a call from Sorrentino I'd be off to Switzerland in a or so
came home that night and we had dinner and watched HBO And I'm for her love and for my friends And to have seen the possum walk its last along the island
I want to old and to walk my last walk Knowing that I, too, gave it I got But again it's all roadblocks and all I fought For to live another day is much better to not And I'd like to die with music in my The piano of Maurice Ravel or Godflesh's guttural growls hell The sound that evokes good of being young and able to get around And I'd like beside me
That old lost the fight His sad, black what a thing to see on a glowing Easter Sunday But rodent was loved and he's still thought of bells rang that day I remember hearing them in the afternoon as we left He had to have heard too
