Sleepwalker


Sneak from your
Ramble house of briars
Where your father sleeps
In German

Follow the clouds
That fleet from your mouth
And scatter into
The dark

The paddocks in moonshine
Like a soft undersea
Follow the glow behind smoke
And the trees

All the boys there speak
In musical tongues
And they're fuelled
By a wild neversleep
