taking cover
seal up
your windows
sandbag your doors
cancel your non-essential engagements
there’s
a commotion
in the superstore
and the sale of tinned goods is rising while…
i’m
falling under
i’m taking cover
i’m becoming a burden upon my friends
surely
somebody
from somewhere
is coming to get me now
but if
you are
my slender arms
and my recalcitrant charms
could do you no harm at all
we’ll bend in the wind then spring back up
vigilance
is needed
alert but not alarmed
i keep my head to the ground where the air is clear
for the
very first time
and the very last time
i’m tuning in to my local radio show
i check
myself for damage
but there’s nothing to see
all the damage is on the screen
surely
somebody
from somewhere
is coming to get me now
but if
you are
my slender arms
and my recalcitrant charms
could do you no harm at all
i’ll bend in the wind
i’ll bend in the wind then spring back up
