Q&A
Julia (Or, 'Holy to the LORD' on the Bells of Horses) Lyrics
Today, a thousand years
of strained affection and prayer
“out beyond ideas
of right & wrong is a field” Will I meet you there?
The summer garden blooms with autumn soon replaced
another harvest moon---
so many ways to lose
so many faiths. ‘Holy to the LORD’ on the bells of horses, safely on the shore, we sank like stones to the bottom of a made up ocean
Standing on the lake shore, Julia,
silent as a seashell Julia
magnet of the elk park Julia
laid down on the Temple floor
“Send a couple rats,” said Julia
I’d have done the same thing to you Coffee and a milk, now Julia
who do you think needs who more? In case your plan falls through
to mispronounce my name,
[static between me and that Salafi, Yusef]
to curse You-Don’t-Know-Who
and bow before the same
[so was the scene at al-Aqsa,] I’ll meet you there.
[I have to admit, I loved the cut of his pant legs!]
another lovely afternoon for Sūrat al-Kāfirūn ‘Holy to the LORD’ on the bells of horses Safely on the shore, we sank like stones to the bottom of a made up ocean
of strained affection and prayer
“out beyond ideas
of right & wrong is a field” Will I meet you there?
another harvest moon---
so many ways to lose
so many faiths. ‘Holy to the LORD’ on the bells of horses, safely on the shore, we sank like stones to the bottom of a made up ocean
silent as a seashell Julia
magnet of the elk park Julia
laid down on the Temple floor
“Send a couple rats,” said Julia
I’d have done the same thing to you Coffee and a milk, now Julia
who do you think needs who more? In case your plan falls through
to mispronounce my name,
[static between me and that Salafi, Yusef]
to curse You-Don’t-Know-Who
and bow before the same
[so was the scene at al-Aqsa,] I’ll meet you there.
[I have to admit, I loved the cut of his pant legs!]
