So I told you when I thought you were alone
How I loved you in this impossible beat poem
Of course I wrote it (most of it) especially for
you
Of course I`ll read it but there`ve been others
in my shoes
So I walked Egyptian canyons on my own
Strings of consciousness forget this sombre tone
And I`m in trouble having missed another find
And every ruin has a different song inside
Making wishes on a vessel lost in time
Or maybe anchored in my Catalina sky
Casting overboard a useless poet`s whine
I`m just a denizen of rhythm, word and rhyme
So I wandered in the canyon all alone
Why I loved you in this impossible beat poem
Of course I wrote most of it especially for you
Of course I ruined it cause there`ve been others
in my shoes
