Amelia Hollander Ames - The Swan Lyrics

Do you know
The swan in the swamp?
Do you remember
How she screamed?

A truck backed up
Beyond the road
Where she lay alone
Asleep

The twilight had just
Descended
The hour that fools
The eye

The night before
I’d seen, I'd seen her there
A girl of snow
And ice

The whitened wings
Unfurled
As the wheels
Destroyed her bed

The ivory neck
Extended
Like a finger
For its band
Her whitened wings unfurled
As the wheels destroyed her bed

The ivory neck extended
Like a finger for its band
Like a finger for its band

She lay there quiet
Against the grass
A splayed and shattered
Thing

Of red and white
Green and gold
Undone
Embroidery
