Butter Knives

Did you paint the porch this summer?
Did you hang the bird feeders?
Garden, do you die under the frost?
Did you turn on the radio to sing
Long after I left?
Promise me that you didn't cry too much
Did you heal the sick apple tree?
What did you do with the old car?
Did you clean out your papers?
Do you tidy the house as recompense?
Did you do your homework?
Do you still have a place to sleep?
 
Tell me that the walls haven't cracked
That below the floorboards
Hold strong enough
Tell me that the heart hasn't moved
That below the floorboards
It still beats
 
When I have time and courage
To come down as backup
To make space or domesticate
We'll throw butter knives
We'll laugh and think
After that, we can sweep it all away
 
Tell me that the walls haven't cracked
That below the floorboards
Hold strong enough
Tell me that the heart hasn't moved
That below the floorboards
It still beats
 
It still beats
