Digging In
Grow Restless
The human body
Like a snail
It's not the shell but what is found inside it
You know the body
It will fail
Even though you're going to try to fight it
The human brain
Like a snail
It will retract to where it's safe and quiet
You know the brain
It will fail
Even though you're going to try to fight it
But oh I was digging in my garden
Pulling weeds and planting seeds
And there unearthed was a beautiful shell
Oh, the most beautiful shell I've ever seen
The human heart
Like a snail
Outside it's hard but then it's soft in private
You know the heart
It will fail
Even though you're going to try to fight it
But oh I was digging in my garden
Pulling weeds and planting seeds
And there unearthed was a beautiful shell
Oh, the most beautiful shell I've ever seen
Mystery Man in a marvelous scene
Moves
Millions
To liberty
Master plan in a minuscule seed
Moves
Mountains
Impossibly
Mustache planned for a covert
Mission
Maybe
Mistakenly
Missed Your hand and the pressure
Meant for
Safety
Inherently
Must I seek for the Maker's
Mask will
Shape me
Impressively
Mustard seed in the desert
May you
Shade me
Eventually
Mud stained feet on a mountain peak
Make
Shelter
In cedar trees
Mostly sleep while the scattered seeds
Grow
Restless
Impatiently
"In Retrospect"
