Above the black rocks of the mystic isle of Lanzarote
The grackles crack their throats of bone in the smooth air
The grackles crack their throats of bone in the smooth air
Amid red distances across the little visited isle of Lanzarote
Dry hills hold cupped palms toward the nearest clouds
Dry hills hold cupped palms toward the nearest clouds
From water of sailors' tears black blooms rise
To create grey shipwreck skies
Above ancient Lanzarote
Above ancient Lanzarote
Blind crabs crawl bright sands once walked by buccaneers and kings
While camels gaze impassive upon cacti
And small bats in remote caverns hang in wakeful sleep
Over desolate Lanzarote And small bats in remote caverns hang in wakeful sleep
