lyrics

Constancy

It is morning. The bees are buzzing.

You are sleeping. Now is a good time

To walk the streets of the Lower East Side —

There will be space ships in Tompkins Sq Park,

The dogs will all be set loose, the bees will come

Home. Children will be running, poems will land

From the heavens. Now is the perfect time to say good-

Bye. Hello. To prepare for the Future the neither

Of us knows, but ever includes us both.

The pen is repaired. The jacket is lost, I am sorry.

Your books are still here. I kiss you or miss you

As irony demands. The world is on fire. I burn for you.

about

The Bushwick Book Club Brooklyn, New York

We started in January 2009 playing songs written in response to Kurt Vonnegut's Breakfast of Champions. We haven't stopped since. We've written & performed songs inspired by everything from "On The Origin of Species" to Dr. Seuss to Raymond Carver. There are BBCs popping up nationwide now. Bushwick Book Club Seattle started in 2010 & is run by Geoff Larson. Our nerdy dare-devilry knows no bounds. ... more
