Intro

X2

Wind out of Oklahoma this morning

Smelled like blood an smoke

 And the crows discuss their future in the

branches of their Louisiana Live Oak

 The limbs are strong and heavy and its

Leaves are all aglow

And the branches brush the upper air

 But the roots reach down to were the bad people go

 And what will I do with you, pink and blue?

True gold.

Nine days old.

X3

Nice new clothes on you

 And an old cardboard produce box for a cradle

 I mashed some bananas in a coffee cup

 And I fed you there at the kitchen table

Crows outside complaining about the

Finer points of local politics

 Strange wind all full of new smells

Rust and fur and reception sticks

 And what will I do with you, pink and blue?

True gold.

Nine days old.
