- Lamb of Stone
- Sad-eyed lady Lamb of Stone with a tear
that you just can’t hide,
- And ghost-like fur woven by an Hualalai
cloud that came to your side.
-
- With your gypsum friends and calcite
stalls,
- What would you tell us of these ghost-like
Halls?
- Could you ever have seen the rolling stone
and red rock walls?
-
- Your hidden eyes where sunlight dims,
- The silhouettes with no moon light swims
- And your voice of imaginary hymns
- How did the vandals and the businessmen
decide,
- To show you where the dead are that they
used to hide?
- But they never could have made you preach
for their side.
-
- And the muddy child looking up at your
face
- With the calcite bones left on the floor
like lace
- My diode light and nylon case,
- Should I leave them by your gate,
- Or sad-eyed lady lamb should I wait,
- For your gypsum kiss that is forever late.
-
- Or the sea at your feet and fountain grass
- Covered by flowing stone and the liquid
glass
- For you in this lava home forever sad-eyed
lady Lamb of Stone
- Or will we all, be sad-eyed in Hualalai
Hall like ghost?
