This pond dreams it's dancing with a
full moon floating in its arms. Gliding
over its glowing skin a swan,
"sings its capacity as desire"—

Swanee, how I love you, how I
love you, my dear old Swanee.

Walking on autumn's colors past
a hollowed-out tree, we are born
and die like a sail
boat sailing on
turbulent waters in which every
stroke incubates our departure.—

even though my mammy's
waiting for me, praying for me
down by the Swanee.
