Cheshire from Selah LP by Craig Plumlee

Dark as a coal miner’s lung
A cat with a vulgar tongue
The spirit Mercurius ephemeral
A predator’s eyes to see
Binocular rivalry
Dreams in the twilight of a tortoise shell

With black eyes and a Cheshire grin
It looks like the love we're in
Yeah, it looks just like the love we're in

The Dragon, the mother with child
A feline selenophile
Divination of celestial bodies
Born under a waning crescent moon
From cradle to silver spoon
Lunar radiance of the final prophecy

With black eyes and a Cheshire grin
It looks like the love we're in
Yeah, it looks just like the love we're in
