Cypress knees hold the porch light low Iron hull where the marsh grasses grow I speak in Latin to roots below Salt crust forms on the steel anchor chain Ballast roots in the black bayou mud Cypress knees rising through the flood Steel hull dreams where the heron once stood Sheltered by porch beams salt and wood Harmonium drones through the Spanish moss Engine cold total signal loss I scrape the heavy rust like winter frost Nature claims what the high tide has lost Ballast roots in the black bayou mud Cypress knees rising through the flood Steel hull dreams where the heron once stood Sheltered by porch beams salt and wood Fiddle screams loud on the foot-stomp beat Gang shouts rise from the piling seat Quercus virginiana shades the deck Botanist saves the sinking wreck Ballast roots in the black bayou mud Cypress knees rising through the flood Steel hull dreams where the heron once stood Sheltered by porch beams salt and wood No compass rose no satellite Just xylem pulling through the night Dormant engine iron sleep Promises that the spring will keep Dawn breaks on the chlorophyll green Brightest hull that I've ever seen Taxodium distichum stand your ground Best harbor that I've ever found Ballast roots in the black bayou mud Cypress knees rising through the flood Steel hull dreams where the heron once stood Sheltered by porch beams salt and wood Safe
