Heart of Open Sky

The land is wind in the thorn and smoke
The people are pieces of broken glass
The muscle of greed is the rain of the cities
The countryside a broken blanket

But this woman is heart of open sky.

Work beats the veins of day
Work hour consumes itself
Work hand unchosen time
Work burns the engine spin

But this woman is heart of open sky.

Aeroplane cloud over hungry flies
Angry fire and night gun papers
Friends gone people dead
Railway station crowds of babies

But this woman is heart of open sky.
