just as I am I come
knee bent and body bowed
this here's sorrow's home
my body's southern song
cram all you can
into jelly jam
preserve a feeling
keep it sweet
so beautiful it was
presumptuous to alter
the shape of my pleasure
in doing or making
proceed with abandon
finding yourself where you are
and who you're playing for
what stray companion
