Mountains in Kauai
Make me feel so lowly
Cower at their power
Vertical I like
Dizzy under buildings
Bending like their willing
Is it what I'm seeing
Vertical is fright
Hard to gain perspective
Often it's perplexing
Reaching for a record
Vertical is sight
Hanging on a pylon
Dropping from a million
Jumping hill to hill on
Vertical is height
People live above you
Postured like a totem
Runnin' up some stairs oh
Vertical is might
Stalling on a nose and
Places to propose in
Seeing everything from
Vertical is light
Diamonds of the sky on
Black and endless background
Reaching out to grab them
Vertical at night
My imagination
Reaches to forever
Like an endless tower
Vertical I write
So high and still it sends a feeling through me
(Oh up above me
Falling over)
Suddenly not vertical
Breathe in the air the goes through a system that is
(down below me
Working steady)
Weary when it's vertical
A tree we are with limbs extending to the sun
(Single holly
Finches calling)
Very lovely vertical
Come find me floating up if you should find me gone
(Nice and
Breezy
Spirits easy)
Did you hear the child say?
My feet can't cross the parking lot
The parking lot is way too hot
Then everything went vertical
For me
At the tips of cities
Birds are tracing columns
Windows bend in wind
Vertical in flight
Down below a statue
People stand in poses
Making good impressions
Vertical delights
Lying on a trunk
And waiting to be dreaming
Startled by a thumpin'
Vertical insight
Lots of people thinkin'
Thinking about falling
Nothing but a rope so
Vertical hold tight
Sometimes you feel the pressure dropping on you
(Heavy folders
Daring soldiers)
Crashing from the vertical
I start to wonder does this system matter?
(Crumbling boulder
Couldn't hold her)
Only if it's vertical
Even in leaves some creatures build themselves a home
(Ancient maples
Empty stables)
Can't always be vertical
Lifted above the din their worlds a peaceful dome
(Natures diet
Finding quiet)
They don't hear the child say
My feet can't cross the parking lot
The parking lot is way too hot
Then everything went vertical
The parking lot is way too hot
Then everything went vertical
