Half Angel Half Eagle - Jane Siberry



someone's mother falls to the sidewalk, on the next street ssomeone looks up

in the cathedral a burst of laughter, in another city the pigeons fly up and

scatter

someone putdown in a new york subway, a newspaper picked up in australia

for each event the inarticulate glory, the equal and opposite will tell

the story



HALF ANGEL HALF EAGLE ONE EYE ON THE WORLD

HALF ANGEL HALF EAGLE ONE EYE ON THE WORLD

be ready



5 intelligent minds huddled in a fancy restaurant,

all that brain power bent on...what shall i? what shall i?...



one lone car cruise the warehouse district

one lone figure shuffling along the wall

2 shadows leaning from the backseat window

someone's mother is about to fall

fuckinghonkyniggerjewwaspjapdagfag

fuckinghomelesspreacherdikecabbiefuckingunionscab

GET OUT GO BACK A STORM IS COMING

(a shudder in the colour of the warehouse wall)



HALF ANGEL HALF EAGLE ONE EYE ON THE WORLD

HALF ANGEL HALF EAGLE ONE EYE ON THE WORLD

be ready

have a good time but don't relax

have a good time but be on guard

you don't need that much not that much

get the wings up ready to go

get the wings up ready to go

what shall i? what shall i?

a shudder in the colour of the warehouse wall
