vixy tony - strange messenger lyrics
he was exploring south america, the first to venture
there
in an age of change and reason, new discoveries

he heard tell of a people who had fled a tribal war
it was said they chose seclusion over death or life as
slaves
but in their sheltered grotto, he found only simple
graves
and one brightly colored messenger, whom no one
understood

so tell me, bold explorer, as you wandered through the
leaves,
did you ponder unknown losses that the very cosmos
grieves?
was it halting? was it flowing? was it lilting and
divine?
was it fearless as your native tongue, mercurial as
mine?
would it pique a linguist’s interest? would it hold a
poet’s thrall?
did the words of one strange messenger tell you
anything at all?
he kept a careful chronicle, transcribing what he heard
of the tribe’s entire language, there remained just
forty words
complexity and structure, how it tastes and how it
sings
time devoured all but scattered words for scattered
things
and can we archaeologists, with bits of sound like

try?
sifting through linguistic ruins for the clues to how
