Spectrums

from How Lucky by Gummylung

lyrics

A mourning dove
I got it wrong
It’s not “morning” like the dawn
It’s “mourning”, like a loss
Like a wound in its chest
Like it mourns itself
Like it mourns itself

Like the pain its in
Keeps paying dividends

Such a soft sadness
Makes up my gladness
A kiss moon in the rose-touched world
Where I’ve been so pent up
Feeling so set-up
Still there's a gleam like mother-of-pearl

A mourning dove
A rosy chest
And an iridescent neck
Reminds me of the snow effect
Above Monet’s Haystacks
A prismatic pastel
Like melted rainbow sherbet
Pooling
And ever-softening
And softer, still
