Los Profetas

First there was Paul,
and Paul and her were one.
And she saw that Paul was good.

Then there was Eddie,
adding things to a long wish list.
And she saw that Eddie was good.

Then there was David,
whispering his sweetest perfection in her ear.
And she saw that David was good.

The last one was Gudmundsdottir
with a strident army of her.
And she saw Gudmundsdottir was good.

Tonight it will be Gordon,
there will be synchronicity,
blood will flow
when flesh and steel become one again,
and she’ll have no choice
but to follow that call
the bright lights, the people
and the moon and all.

And she will see the promised land one more time.
