Black Locust Grove Lyrics

From the Queen's lace

Moss and limestone

From the fur and the fang of the hollows

From the creek banks

Under bird song

For the frogs that will sing into my bones

From here

In here

From here into my art

I wanna keep it there

Ever my home

I know to feel in every cell of my parts

Under geode

Broken fossil

Every toad

Garter snake

Sleeping 'possum

Home in trees where the people don't crowd me

Let the Green River flood my heart

Carved into the dirt in every grove

Every cave

Sewn into the land in every barn

Every grave

Torn into the linings of my mark

Sworn unto the bleedings of my animal parts

My art

It's from here into my art

I wanna keep it there

Ever I roam

Absorb the smell in every cell of my parts

In the sweet space

Blood of my home

Growing plant

Solid rock

Aging gravestone

Home in trees where the people don't crowd me

Let the Green River flood my heart
