the spirit is always walking on the water
I could feel that in the underground
whirling through the tunnels
we are so fond and proud of
you Egypt may have your pyramids
and you Rome your Greek imitations
but we take the subterranean route
though you may also have noticed
those planes flying out over the harbor
to join the spirit who is always
walking on the water
he is coming out of an immense
longing which looks like a fogbank
but you can smell the land
and the warmth of a million bodies
carried out like treasure
over the sparkling water
