Forest Fire (森林之火) - Mount Eerie[00:00:00]

The year moves on without you in it[00:00:19]

Now it is fall without you[00:00:26]

I had to close the windows and doors without you coming through[00:00:31]

I kept them open for as long as I could[00:00:38]

But the baby got cold[00:00:44]

I watched the calendar bulldoze[00:00:50]

This whole past summer was a lingering heat wave[00:01:09]

And I remember late August our open bedroom window[00:01:14]

Going through your things with the fan blowing[00:01:20]

And the sound of helicopters and the smell of smoke[00:01:23]

From the forest fire that was growing billowing[00:01:28]

Just on the edge of town where we used to swim[00:01:31]

They say a natural cleansing devastation burning the understory erasing trails[00:01:36]

There is no end[00:01:44]

But when I'm kneeling in the heat[00:01:46]

Throwing out your underwear[00:01:49]

The devastation is not natural or good[00:01:51]

You do belong here[00:01:56]

I reject nature[00:01:58]

I disagree[00:02:01]

In the hazy light of forest fire smoke[00:02:04]

I looked across at the refineries and thought[00:02:07]

That the world was actually constantly ending[00:02:11]

And the smell and roar of the asphalt truck that was idling[00:02:16]

Just out the window tearing up our street[00:02:21]

I missed you[00:02:24]

Of course[00:02:27]

And I remember thinking the last time[00:02:29]

It rained here you were alive still[00:02:32]

And that this same long heat that I was in contained you[00:02:36]

And in this same heat I open the window next to you[00:02:42]

On your last morning[00:02:48]

So you could breathe and then so you could ghost away[00:02:52]

And now so the room will hopefully[00:02:59]

Stop whispering[00:03:07]

The grind of time I'm not keeping up with[00:03:14]

The leaf on the ground pokes at my slumbering[00:03:21]

Grief walking around severed lumbering[00:03:27]

But slowly sovereignty reasserts itself[00:03:36]

I don't want it though[00:03:45]

And betrayal whines[00:03:52]

Who and how could I[00:03:58]

Live[00:04:04]
