Tai Chi With My Dad

I drank coffee with the raven  Who said empathy is painful  But if you want to eat the fruit  You gotta feel the rainfall  I drank coffee with the raven  They said don't you go complaining  Put your feet against the pavement  Your life is yours for making  I've been on borrowed time since 7, unable to breathe A week hooked to machines my dad trying to teach me tai chi  The sundial informs me I'm too early for the universes heat death  But hopefully I'm not too late to catch my breath and get my bike fixed You looked at me through double glazing, folded your voice to a gnostic text  Do you get lonely sometimes? All I had left was to answer yes  Every morning I've been talking all my secrets to the trees  But lately they don't return my whispers, they ain't talking back to me  I drank coffee with the raven  Who said empathy is painful  But if you want to eat the fruit  You gotta feel the rainfall "
