a new state of men - art schop lyrics

the word came first, the tongue refused it
the pain of silence then unloosed it
the hiss of rain, the shovel’s dreary clip
a car pulled over in the nearest ditch
i write and pennies rattle in the cup
a word set up against its neighbor’s stub
the ashes bloom, the cattle calve the hill
that linen bloodied from the local mill
a new state of men, falls from his pen
two clocks they tick, the onе i sit and watch
the brass endeavor of thе rise and drop
the glaze of time, the crack, the simple rush
no gaudy scars, his temple bears the poppy’s blush
a new state of men, falls from this pen
the blackbird patient waits so don’t you grieve
you’ll see him in the ivy when i leave
the word comes last, no tongue to speak it
all measure swept, all pain rescinded
her measling shins caressed with the goose’s quill
all white and thick beneath the cotton frill
for every year a foot for every year
the four foot box, a cot, it would appear
