MINGLING WITH THE PEOPLE IN MYKONOS

Happen to know where Mykonos is? Ever heard of it?

“And you will go to Mykonos

With a vision of a gentle coast

And a sun to maybe dissipate

Shadows of the mess you made

How did animals in the snow tipped pines, I find

Hatching from the seed of your thin mind, all night?

And you will go to Mykonos

With a vision of a gentle coast

And a sun to maybe dissipate

Shadows of the mess you made

Brother you don't need to turn me away

I was waiting down at the ancient gate”
