our shadows should have been twelve feet tall

sifting coins through a cloud,
holding hands with the storm
sleepyheads don't need beds
so long as we keep each other warm

you couldn't see the tops of buildings at all
and I couldn't either
milk tide, I tasted the salt sky
it was so low
felt four pulses slow

sleepyheads don't even dream anymore
where are we homesick for?
