Hudson

The night you went all out
and I found you out beyond the break
I circled the block looking for you
Sleeping near a tree blowing
a whiskey steam on its roots
I circled the block
Like a fish circles in a bowl
Like water in the drain when I shave
Like a stalker circles the house
Like a dog just looking for my tail
Like shit circles in the can
Like a pilots circling approach
Like a chicken with my head cut off
Like a wolf circling a wounded animal
I knew you did not want to be found
But I had to know you were not in a trap
I did not know you were circling the wagons
and you came full circle
You could fight a circle saw and it a runnin
and we could go around in circles
all I ever wanted was to square the circle with you
I walked till I realized I was walking in squares
