Ode to the Sky Horse

from Odes 2​.​0 by Earthbook

/

lyrics

I’m waitin' on the train to arrive at the Grand street station in China town. Bus aisle sleep achieved by Kroger NyQuil cheats my day out of a napping hour. A fifty dollar ticket last minute gets me to NYC faster than I could have driven. It couldn't be safe, but I can’t complain: I’m alive. And sometime next week I’ll be back on the horse to Ohio. Unannounced stops with mystery goods, and fifteen in PA to stretch and buy food. I was picked up thirty minutes late on the side of the road in Columbus then it was pedal to the floor ‘til New York. At nine A.M it is finished. I stumble off of the bus and onto sidewalk in the city leading to dollar dumplings and rendezvous. I've arrived and sometime next week I’ll be back on the horse to Ohio.
