TMNT Mask - Chad VanGaalen

I think I’ll go sit by the river

Just to get away for a while

Like jumping off of the water

And time, it aligned, is swirling and swimming

Clouds rolling over themselves

Twisting and boiling and growing out of nothing

The hills bitten off at the edge

And the whiskers and the tails

Running round

Running running round

I think I’ll go sit by the river

Just to get away for a while

Listen to the conversations

Eavesdropping on the whiskey jacks and wax men

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle mask

Sunk into the rocks plastic face half buried

The stone bottom bumps out a rhythm

It sings the same song

That its always been singing

Think i’ll go sit by the river

Just to get outside of my mind

I’m wishing I could stay here forever

But the river won’t stay that long

It’s moving on

Shopping cart stuck on an island

Stranded in the middle getting hotter and thirsty

Not really moving just waiting

For this water to rise up again

And pull me along
