The old moon is tarnished With smoke of the flood,

The dead leaves are varnished With colour like blood,

A treacherous smiler With teeth white as milk,

A child of the village Was murdered today.

Sea LullabyThe old moon is tarnished With smoke of the flood, The dead leaves are varnished With colour like blood, A treacherous smiler With teeth white as milk, A savage beguiler In sheathings of silk, The sea creeps to pillage, She leaps on her prey; A child of the village Was murdered today.
She came up to meet him In a smooth golden cloak, She choked him and beat him To death, for a joke. Her bright locks were tangled, She shouted for joy, With one hand she strangled A strong little boy. Now in silence she lingers Beside him all night To wash her long fingers In silvery light.

Wherever there is gold there is a chain, you know,

We Alone
We alone can devalue goldBy not caring If it falls or risesIn the market place
Wherever there is goldThere is a chain, you know,And if your chainIs goldSo much the worseFor you
Feathers, shellsAnd sea-shaped stonesAre all as rare.
This could be our revolution:
To love what is plentifulAs much asWhat’s scarce.
