Ears
if the wrong tree falls in the forest
and there’s nobody there to hear
can you hear yourself barking
will anyone lend an ear
sword asleep lays across a chair
don’t sense the edge of it anywhere
horse head dawn is the outline fair
rock sticking up is the horse’s ear
shadow in a horse shoe canyon
tends to gather at one end
the light falls fine in front and behind
knothole listens in the shape of an ear
it’s a tree but it looks like an ear
bark is gray and the limbs obey
some scheme that only trees can hear
Lestrade with his pride in his pocket
in the story of the lady in green
a curtain falls between two walls
one side real the other a scene

No Big Deal
goodbye Whitney
hello Adele
I know the old woman in the shoe
but you know William Tell
it’s no big deal
Newton’s apple keeps falling
maybe always will
down on the ground there is no sound
just being still
it’s no big deal
eat some angels eyeballs if you
want to see inside
are you a real hitchhiker
do you need a ride
it’s no big deal
the Inspector keeps calling
probably always will
he waits for a clue to drive through Meru
in a Coupe de Ville
its no big deal

Pool
she walked into the water
like she was walking into something to wear
she walked into the water
like the water wasn’t there
and Danielle had to leave the pool
and Danielle had to leave the pool
and Danielle had to leave the pool
and Danielle had to leave the pool

Dishwasher
my dishwasher is more trouble than it’s worth
it looks pretty good but
my dishwasher didn’t cost much money
but it looks expensive
don’t you love it honey
E A and D are the foundation of the earth
E A and D are the foundation of the earth
and my dishwasher is more trouble than it’s worth

May I Ask
may I ask
why you rush to inhabit that mask
neath your skin where I cannot see
in the face that you show to me

Fresh Mint
on a level path beside a house
where welcome ever holds court
a sliver of green against the quiet brick
aging earth distorts aging earth distorts aging earth distorts
on a level path beside a house
where welcome ever holds court
a sliver of sun against the raging birds
aging earth distorts aging earth distorts aging earth distorts
green and green in friendly patterns small
and most discreet
quiet in its memory where
dearest friends would meet
on a level path beside a house
where welcome ever holds court
a sliver of green against the quiet brick
aging earth distorts aging earth distorts aging earth distorts
on a level path beside a house
on a level path

Wolverton Magdalena, New Mexico
The core collective is Kate Terrell, Caralyn Snyder, Hills Snyder, our key collaborator, Joe Reyes, and others who come and
go, sit in or otherwise join the Wolverton musical family.
Lyrically, Wolverton is unanchored, very visual and moving equally through memory, story, and association, with dark streaks of tradition.
