Woman of the earth
She comes out in the full moonlight
inside of the quiet
Her feelings like fingers dip into a little bit
Of everything
She runs they say
with the wild things
Ten thousand miles
Under the eye of the giants
She’s dived into the mouth of the volcano
Woman of the earth
See her under the weight of
Their poetry
Their weather
Their religion
Tangled up in star signs
Her roots spread deep
What have we done for her lately?
Everything we give her
Comes with a receipt
We’ve got her
Tangled up
Tangled up
In a card
In a headline
On a stage
In a bit
Overreacting
Like strings on a puppet
Where is she now?
I keep looking
She’s a woman
She’s a woman
You can’t label,categorize,
She’s a woman
I loved a woman
Love a woman
She’s a woman
And she’s damned if she doesn’t
She’s damned if she does
Woman of the earth
She runs
With the wild things
She rises with the moon
But what…
What have we done for you lately?
