How Can A Plumb Be Perfected?

(album: Earth Man Blues - 2021)

Would an arrow straight and narrow
On second sight slightly bent
Still be sent
To a target overcrowded
If to only eliminate one
Would it miss and be gone
And collaborate no longer
With collaborators as well
As it fell?

How in a crowd could I blend in
And where would I go?
How can a plumb be perfected
And how would you know?

With the brightest star untraceable
In absentia would all righteous
Brothers know?
And if then there was a camera flash
And as instantly as it came it was gone
Did it go
With a cartoon-like explosion
Of a prop and a virtual
Demolition zone?

How in a crowd could I blend in
And where would I go?
How can a plumb be perfected
And how would you know?

How can a plumb be for all time
Still completely perfect?

I sit around always thinking
About how?
