New Beast

from Burrow by Max García Conover

/

lyrics

I was a new beast quick and teeming, a shadow on the swaying trees. Gave what I had to her heart she left me a small and staggering. Sought sound in their hollows and faults in their burrows, you’re all high and heaven toward. But I was a new beast teeming through and I ran and I ran to the war.

Holler the chimneys lit great desks kerosenes of moons and of papers full. And recall the running the boy who lived daydreams a towering new animal. If I’ve only been loud just a word hurling child I regret it, that is nothing I’m for. But I was a new beast teeming through and I ran and I ran to the war.

She said you could talk of nothing, and have thoughts without aim or import. And I think that a beast be a good thing, but I don’t know what you’re for.

I was a new beast, quick and teeming, laughing at the sagging trees. Gave what I had to her heart she left me scraping the dirt from my knees. I sought sounds in their hollows and faults in their burrows we’re all high and heaven toward. But I was a new beast teeming through and I ran and I ran to the war.
