mobile leaf

normal understanding has got to fail
when we achieve the boundaries of sense
no leaf will stay in place during a gale

there is no account of size scope or scale
who makes the claim will do so in pretense
normal understanding has got to fail

you hold the whole pacific in a pail
and keep all of mankind behind a fence
no leaf will stay in place during a gale

shapes born of shadow will this day prevail
your epic story has now to commence
normal understanding has got to fail

the victory belongs to the female
you tell us this in utter innocence
no leaf will stay in place during a gale

this fish was caught by head as well as tail
the process takes long time and much expense
normal understanding has got to fail
no leaf will stay in place during a gale
