Lavender Town (hula hoop dream)

from Banshee Cypher by Television Rd

/

lyrics

Don’t fret, there’s no glory
Everything is temporary
This too shall pass
Hold the laughing gas

Will the sun rise in time?
Never be sorry, gurl
Hold yer head high

Feel your toes in the grass
Honeybear, don’t be crass
It takes two to fly

Ahhhhhh
Hula-hoop dream

Poem written and performed by Erin McLaughlin:

Fall forwards
And you're wasted
Into oblivion
Star speckled face of the universe

Fall backwards
Towards your fading history
Drown in muted memories
Or cravings for your earliest life

Fall forwards
You're sinking into a void
Of nothingness
of knowlessness

It will steal away your sight
Trick you into thinking
you're getting closer to it
The most complex mirage

Stretching forward
As you chase the end
Not realizing that the end
Doesn't exist

Stand stagnant
All is moving quickly still
But the quickness is calm
Your bare feet steady on a stone in a stream

Time and space rushing past you
Drenching your skin the hem of your pants
Yanking your arms back
And arresting you

Nothing but darkness ahead of you
you're staring into a vacuum
Shadowy recollections behind you Diluted images
But vivid surrounds you

And you realize that time and space
Can be redirected
Simply by standing still

Let nothing remain below you
Stand not on the earth but in the stars
And be free
