Kino

I heard a puff, I heard a blow

I felt the ground, I felt the snow

I thought of linen and of lace

I never really saw his face

I heard a grunt, I heard a moan

I felt the sun, I saw the moon

I saw the northern light above

And the eclipse of the sun

I am a breath, I am a wish

I am a rocket and a fish

I felt his measures and his weight

My own body as a scale

I heard a whisper in my ear

"You are not here, you are not here"

I saw the northern light above

And the eclipse of the sun

My feet was hurt and heals were sore

And I wondered why it burned

And I wondered why it burned

Then I had to climb down

I went down to see the sun rise

And then I had to climb back up again

I had to be there to see the sun rise

All the air that you sent to guide me

Had a tone of the elephant gray

We were all there in the morning

We were there and we wanted to stay

So quite a lot of what people had heard was right

Some was wrong
