downloading doves on your fancy computer
|
youre shooting for love in the dark
|
hey jude youve found her now go instant message
|
her name is a pretty good start
|
|
ultima sits in her bedroom in texas and
|
waits for her hamsters to touch
|
she lost her legs in a car crash three years ago
|
she doesnt get around much
|
|
but she is hoping someday
|
somebody will take her away
|
|
now that you got her a dress you can send her
|
a matching attachment and face
|
slick rhododendrons you make out of paper
|
with flowers that never lose shape
|
|
you have a video camera strapped to
|
your forehead in case she is true
|
smiling rewind as we die in slow motion
|
(as if its not happening to you)
|
|
don't blow it all at one time:
|
some girls are harder to find
|
|
don't be afraid of the dark ages darling,
|
the stage has been set and your carriage is waiting
|
to take you away from this place
|
where youll meet your bride face to face
|
knowing her name is enough: ultima...
|
|
foks trotting globes rotting under your fingertips
|
tapping for oil in vain
|
surely you wont think to hold it against her
|
she can't help that thats where she came
|
from
|
someone is hoping to find
|
her limbs in an auction online
|
knowing her name is enough:
|
ultima esperanza
