Island

You can see them in the forest
Coming through the trees now
You can see them in the forest
Coming through the trees now
Brain like popcorn, eye shade greyer
Than the week gone by in the bush, I lie and
This ain’t Survivor, TV dreams and
Full-pelt warrior, brain on steam and
Sunlight gleams, and all seems well
But my heart reverbs like a bell
Birds take flight, quick ting, day turns to night
I’m back to the zone, alright, right?
Eyesight betrays, mind traps late
I just like my dreams time-phased
It’s like all day, they sit in there, still all sane
But we in the floods, pure shame
It’s like OK, I’m wondering, left-right brain
How to steadfast maintain
Life’s in a frame, perched up, high out of reach
And I’m an outcast on the beach
