about

It's International Women's Day, so here's a little tune recorded under duress of heartbreak and the sting of my own hubris, on a thick shag carpet in West Seattle some years ago. Time to let it go, let it go into the great unknown.

lyrics

messy, blessed infinity

Quite my aching mind
I have no place to hide
at the end of your day
I am no torch to burn
I am no pleasure earned
at the end of your day
I am no rock you can hide under
I am no rock you can throw in the river
watch me sink and go under
at the end of your day

I am infinity
this is my messy, blessed offering
I am a woman grown
I am a woman

I am infinity
this is my messy, blessed offering
I am a woman grown
I am a woman

I thought I knew what it meant
to be a lover and a friend
but I've been busy restructuring
what is real and right within
on the door of my heart hangs a sign
before you come in read it through
it says we're on this earth
for a very short time
so you better learn to speak your truth
you better learn

I am infinity
this is my messy, blessed offering
I am a woman grown
I am a woman

I am infinity
this is my messy, blessed offering
I am a woman grown
I am a woman

But what if I need to be alone?
And then I need to know you're there
in the next room, in the next room?
What if I'm a kalaedascope,
shifting everyone time I shift
I shift and the mirror turns in her view

I am infinity
this is my messy, blessed offering
I am a woman grown
I am a woman

I am infinity
this is my messy, blessed offering
I am a woman grown
I am a woman

Quite my aching mind
I have no place to hide
I'm a woman in her own way

Quite my aching mind
I have no place to hide
I'm a woman in her own way
