Inspired by Annie Dillard's essay, Living Like Weasels - (DADGBD 4th fret)

lyrics

Stalk Your Calling

Weasels hunting by the riverside his sight and senses down
of a sudden from up above an eagles talons turn him around
Weasel sinks his teeth in the birds white neck as he's lifted off the ground
He's hanging on for the dearest life ever imagined to be found
Air borne bones and far flung fur
reasons why will differ
The eagle's flying east and
The weasel's falling north, while we....

Stalk our calling, we can stalk our calling
We can stalk our calling
and the weasel's falling north

Once I loved a goddess, she lived in a cabin by the river
We'd go walking on the dark night when the wind would make me shiver
It seems I took to careless love and I did not know what I had
Ambition took hold of my liberty and like a frightened deer I ran
Your line of light travels far
Blue ascending morning star
Imminent is what we are, when we...

Stalk our calling, we can stalk our calling
We can stalk our calling
Imminent is what we are

The air is thick, and the sound is bright, light is flashing in my eyes
sweat runs off of my nose and cheek as I crouch in the reeds grown high
I had to rise early to watch you swim from your den across the pool
climbing up the bank in ritual as you gather winter fuel
Well the rain may flood and the sun may burn
You swim free as I observe
I walk away knowing my prayers are heard, when we...

Stalk our calling, we can stalk our calling
We can stalk our calling
And our prayers are often heard
Our prayers are often heard
