Ah've bin thinking
As Ah sit an' as Ah walk
When the moonlight
Hangs above us
Or when the sun
Blesses us
-
An' we feel those
Pangs o' concern
An' creeping, clawin'
Fear an' panic
Tae turn or no tae turn
That is the question
-
Schrödinger
had a cat
A normal cat
In a box
Alive or deid
How dae we ken
Unless we lift the lid
See fir oorselves
-
It's easy tae forget, ye see,
Whit is behin' ye
Is behin' ye
Because
Because
Yer moving forward
-
It's passed an' past
An' if it isnae
It will remain there
+
If ye turn 'roon
Will it make it manifest?
-
Perhaps then it is this truth
Ye need tae hawd ontae
-
If ye never turn 'roon,
It's both there
An' no there
