COCONUT GROVE

It took a moment to make you mine

and in the time I wasted mine time of Nell

the one who owned me for the time I lasted

at the word of Jew and Howe named Mo

I do not know when I will be there

But here I make the west see land

and that is how I want it to go

to the end of the world where the palm trees grow.
