Wrote this awhile ago, while thinking about our planetary crisis
Even thinner ice now
lyrics
Skating on the ice that is so thin
Wondering will it hold, long enough for us to
Fold ourselves away and go below
This is not the right response
To the troubles that we face
It’s time to step up to the plate my friends
And show your sense of grace , show your sense of grace
Don’t look the other way
Spread all your love today. From place to place
Wondering if things can stay this way
Knowing that they won’t
No not for just one single day or one minute or one note
Total chaos it is without.....the benefit of a boat
Most of the time we are surrounded by many solid ghosts
So many solid ghosts
They’re just rising right off the floor
Like shooting stars from way before. Way before
Skating on the ice that is so thin, I’m wondering
Will it hold
