Locusts

Take me to still water’s edge

we can catch the stars in cups

and get drunk on how life used to be

 

we, an ever-growing locust swarm

never sated, always wanting

take us to still water’s edge

 

play your siren’s song and bring us home

let us fill that lake until

there is nothing left of us

 

but the pure and dead night sky
