Skitter scatter and scratch Stop to tap, tap and tap Poke, peak and tap. Tap, tap and tap. Divine persistence will pay little feathered brother tap tap tap tap tap Divine persistence will pay that's what the Earth will say Keep it up, keep searching Keeping wanting and wishing tap tap, and tap skitter and scratch. Good luck will come your way. Yours is a feathered faith. You are faith covered in feather skittering about on a tree. That's a faith like mine like ours A scrambling faith A searching faith. faith that clings to bark faith depending on what lies beneath faith that could fly but lands back beneath the branches above the ground but below the sky Suspended. I n l i m b o faith from HUNGER and hungry Faith that flickers out of view. flickers into view out of view. Panic calls and peace presides. just like my feathered brother
