Charles Bukowski - Communion lyrics

Horses running with her miles away
Laughing with a fool

Bach and the hydrogen bomb
And her miles away laughing with a
Fool

The banking system bumper jacks
Gondolas in Venice and her miles away
Laughing with a fool
You’ve never quite seen a stairway before
(each step looking at you separately)
And outside the newsboy looking
Immortal as the cars go by
Under a sun like an enemy
And you wonder why it’s so hard
To go crazy if you’re not already
Crazy

Until now you’ve never seen a
Stairway that looked like a stairway
A doorknob that looked like a doorknob
And sounds like these sounds

And when the spider comes out
And looks at you finally
You don’t hate it finally
With her miles away laughing with a
Fool
