RL Greenfield
brown eyes
brown eyes own my soul
that's all I know for sure
I am falling through space again
brown eyes are the cushion
I let go of the universe
brown eyes are rock & rolling me
I'm on a canoe in the Caribbean
brown eyes are my plutocracy
these are long words, long words
these words long for soft deeds
the world is now moving from
one place to another place
everything is Silent
brown eyes are rowing the ship
I'm in the hull being read to by
brown eyes
