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