Behind the World
Lurking in the dark and gloomy shadows of the earth
Everything is there. Everything
Like a big universal warehouse
Piles of stuff packed one on top of the other
And behind everything
         Behind the wars
         Behind the weather
         Behind the microwaves and the digital watches
         and the mobile phones and the deposit boxes
         and the Hollywood superstarts and the MTV
         video songs
Behind the mounts of dust
                   Spider webs
                             And anciet things
There are all the things that really matter
All the good things in life
The smell of wet soil, The sound of a waterfall, The
smoothness of wet grass, the drawings of kids on old
refrigerators, and the taste of the lips of the people we
love
