Writer’s Agony A letter from my friend, the writer Dearest friend I’ve been reading your letters again Poems and words Thought by you and written by your hand Dearest friend I know my answer is late and I know That our correspondence Needs both you and me to flow But my writing has been tired And my thoughts are way too wild And I lost my pens and paper In the rain Dearest friend So instead of writing useless words, I send You a melody A little tune I wrote two days ago About a writer’s agony But my writing has been tired And my thoughts are way too wild And I lost my pens and paper In the rain

You Should Come Sailing A letter from my friend, the sailor You should come sailing I’ll pick you up one day Sooner or later You should come sailing I’ll pick you up one day Sooner or later I’ll pick you up one day Maybe just a few years before we die Two very old ladies, hands warm and dry Faces made out of wood And eyes filled with water and light You should come sailing I’ll pick you up one day Sooner or later I’ll pick you up one day Sooner or later

Song for Tom 04:24
Song for Tom A letter to my friend, the singer He took the lines of all the unfinished love songs And turned them into a manifest of tears And of the undeveloped photographs he made an Exhibition only the angels could see And he collected the leaves of the trees in the autumn and he Kept them to remind him of spring And when he learned that the stars that he loved to look at were dead He began to sing He finished everything that laid there unfinished All that had ended before it had begun He finished everything that laid there unfinished All that had ended before it had begun

Fig Tree & Friends A letter from my friend, the poet Cutting plums Under the fig tree Today mama turns Sixty And I’m cutting figs For the party That fig tree is a part of me Because it’s what I am used to see Now it’s midnight and My window is open And I hear my mother laugh With her best friends They are drinking wine under the fig tree And I think to myself That the best friends always stay Until the bitter end

Sisters 03:43
Sisters A letter to my sister She came to me and told me That she couldn’t fly, she couldn’t fly I told her “well, you don’t have to” She started to cry, started to cry I went to her and told her “I don’t wanna die, I don’t wanna die” She told me “well, you don’t have to” I started to cry, started to cry Sometimes it’s better to say the things as they are I try She went to town and started a big, big fight, a big, big fight I went to town and saw that It made her high, it made her high She came back home and told me That she did right, she did right I told her “oh, my dear sister You are living in denial, living in denial” Sometimes it’s better not to play games I try We made our dinner and had Nothing to say, had nothing to say I was afraid that she would Walk away, would walk away She told me that she really Wanted to fly, she wanted to fly I told her “oh, my dear sister I really want you to try, I want you to try” And when I let her go, she let me go By and by

Here We Are 05:18
Here We Are A letter to my siblings Here I am With my sister Here we stand With our brother Killing time On our parents’ porch Playing cards On our parents’ porch Here we stand A crew from the past And I wonder how long it’ll last It might last forever As long as we gather Take our time together On our parents’ porch
