The Dusk Hour (Sidestep Walk)

Two faces and
one grimace
the funeral warn
where there's no death
long dump steps
on empty streets

What is it for?
what are they for?
will you wait for me,
through the dusk hour,
into the dark?

Long and so uncanny,
uncertain about time
unsure of how long,
it's gonna take,
before I'll show.

It's been a long year,
a high gear,
can't say when things are going to slow down
slow down again

Wait to see
sunsets
and morning calls you back
from your cold grave of silence
as the shimmering dew
and the ones you know
the ones you hold
the one who holds you

It's been a long year
a high gear
can't say when things are going to slow down
slow down again
