about

My homage to Emily Dickinson.

lyrics

Hiding Place
When purple leaves begin to fall
and autumn breathes on summer
like a sunset water fall
I'll stand vigil, I'll soldier on
waiting here until dawn on this beautiful lawn

When I feel the dark night of my soul
When I feel the beast a'slouchin'
towards his catastrophic goal
I long to see you standing there so shy
in the centre of my mind's eye
the centre of my mind's eye

I felt the rain, I knew the cure
Within my heart I cried to think just how obscure
Laconic day gives way to frighttime
From this hiding place I creep into the yellow moonlight

A cloistered heart said she preferred
to rise in Orphic splendour
to fly upon a word
ever Empress, never just Emily
exotic Empress of Calvary
