Dust - Silver Apples

Dust, this day is hash…

A broken bottle’s inside

Strewn with rinds of love

And shattered shells of soul

Dust of other days

Crumpled hours of devotion

Washed down gutter streams

To sink within the tide

Dust of love squeezed dry

Hateful fingers strangled joy

Self-made love as bare as bone

Dropped down to dusty morning
