lyrics

Damascus

Under these exact circumstances—mist,
and light penetrating lowering clouds—
the wet asphalt of a battered highway
turns to silver before me. And then white,
as if opposites were only degrees of light,
atmospheric merely. At any moment,
the world I've constructed might vanish,
and a blinding road, to Damascus, or
to precisely nowhere, might suggest
my journey. I proceed thus blindly. I go
with no expectation. The slow, groping,
empty-eyed pilgrim grasps nothing
but the moment at hand.
