Gold Faces
She is sitting
On the ground
Golden face and
Eyes turned down
Arms both barren
Showing some
Golden trace of
Foreign sun
And bright and tied
Across each wrist
Golden bracelets
That exist
Sold so cheap
They're almost free
In golden places
We've never seen
China white and
Cairo black
This golden face and
Silver back
I have brought her
'Cross the sea
Give in to my
Love for me
Shut your thoughts close
Out the world
Shut your thoughts and
Be my girl
Hear the screams
Outside the gate
We can't stop it
It's too late
I said can you have it
Take it
Well, take it all
Try it on twirl
Down the hall
Big-eyed girl and
Gentle man
Blank-eyed beast who
Grabs her hand
At a distance
From the street
Golden threads run
Through bedsheets
Lit by dusky
Golden heat
Plummeting through
Golden me
