The Giants Will Laugh

I’ll walk the earth

Step by step

I’ll take a piece of you with me 

Each of you

Along the way.

I’ll walk the earth

Carefully pacing 

With your hearts in my hand 

Laughing.

Laughing. 

As my feet touch the ground

The earth will shudder 

i’ll walk the land.

The dirt between my toes

Is mine to own. 

Sip your tea

Talk about the weather. 

Don’t you see

You’re just like the rest of them

Talk about politics 

Go to church on Sunday. 

The dogs will bark 

The leaves will fall 

The girl will sing

The boy will do his thing

& you

Will keep searching for

What makes you feel alive.
