i long to watch you dance
in your cormorant feather dress
toki toki yahamimena…
 
so few of us got off of that
island alive

take me back to your whale bone 
house 
feed me seal meat and 
shell fish blues 

so few of us got off that 
island alive 

seven days later i got the news 
feed me seal meat and shell fish 
blues 

i remember 
your cormorant feather dress
toki toki yahamimena…
and the sand between your toes.
