Rain King October 24

A cold, rainy evening. I heard the sound overhead - and picked up the camera. The last of the three-song challenge.

When I think of heaven (Deliver me in a black-winged bird)
I think of flying down into a sea of pens and feathers
and all other instruments of faith and sex and God
In the belly of a black-winged bird

When I think of heaven (Deliver me in a black-winged bird)
I think of dying Lay me down in a field of flame and heather
Render up my body into the burning heart of God
In the belly of a black-winged bird

Nice job. The lamps in the corner anchor the image well and the sky is a very moody color. I'll be thinking of three new songs for you soon. ;)
