As the descent began I got the distinct impression
Lake Michigan had been frozen for decades
I conducted the warmth from my metronome sternum
To our massive jetting vessel billowing plumes of spent fuel
B D#m
The tundra under us cracked and ruptured
G#m
To reveal palisades
C#m
Made of blades of gray, gray bristling grass
E
And papulose lichen
B
I was so frightened
E
As my grip on you tightened
E
Your skin got slicker
B D#m
I am a deserted bus depot
G#m
Though our approach suggested
B7/D# D#7 E
An American hazy sea
C#m
Like the one I found inside
E
After driving you home once

Still half high

I sense evil at the heart of each far flung well lighted home

I close my eyes and see cellar stairways
B E G#m7 E
Vermiculated with delicate animal bone
B D#m
Musty rooms house racks of fur jackets
G#m
Spattered with plasma

On a bus in Indiana

I called you and screamed

Under ceaseless patterns of weeping light
