The nature of limitation

the nature of limitation (mp3)

Lyrics

two pairs in a bag
bicycles side by side
and the moon split itself in two

indoors at long last
at the threshold we travel past
to the room "how do you do?"

i have nothing to say
strangely

the nature of limiting
to sever what is from what also is
the grounds of a simile
as oceans form continents

turn around i won't stare
laugh out loud i don't care

there's nothing to say
i'm strangely well contained

This is lovely and strikes me as Robert Voyer-esque somehow. Great melodies, I especially like the first "strangely," and the resolution of "contained." Gabemcelwain 14:18, 19 August 2009 (PDT)
