lyrics

A friend I once mistook for you
invited me out of the blue
for lunch or breakfast on the lawn
her attic window looked out on.

She said as she leafed through the mail
(her gallery had made a sale):
“Now look up at the window from
the spot I’d usually look down on.”

Deep green, olive, sky blue,
new-mown, matted with dew.
She said she liked the tremor of the dandelions.

Inside, wet canvas spanned the halls,
nail fissures in the plaster walls:
somebody’s long-discarded notes
or interrupted anecdotes, 

in muted browns and grays,
intersecting blue rays,
and every one she gave the title Dandelion. 

At home—houseplants upturned.
The cat looked on unconcerned.
And so I wrote a song and called it “Dandelion.”
