HORIZONTAL HORIZONS

from MAGNETIC NORTH (LP) by Frank America

/

lyrics

the hands of god
the sons of stars
the moon thats crescent
self-luminescent
go and inspect it
equinox, equator, quito, high noon,
3,300 mmiles above you,
1,037 mph the sun moves,
celestial balance
stationary palace
immutable aftermath
horizons rising fast
vertical nautical
vector obstacle
Nye be like why can't I see Span from NYC
I be like why can I see
Chicago city
Joshua Nowicki
photo of the skyline across lake michi-
gan i began to understand the land
and declare that
every night we stare at
the revolutions about polaris
how come see no parallax?
and twilight barely lasts if you below the tropic of cap
and the maps they made greenland bigger than africa
and the antarctic treaty the only peace that's lastin' us
and the living lives of challenger's seven dead astronauts
the the resources mentioned by Byrd the admiral
and that predictive programming showed that 9/11 would happen ya'll
and the black and white checkered tile floor of Dracula
and the reason a sling can take down the giant gargantuan
and the fish that came in from the nets of the righteous ones
and the wish off your lips is the essence of mighty tongues
and the treasures of ships reappear like prodigal sons
on horizontal horizons
so sing me a tune not a fairy tale or a lullaby
cause i'm done counting sheep and too young to let my country lie
