Many A Hand
Has Scaled
The Grand Old Face
Of The Plateau

Some Belonged
To Strangers
And Some To
Folks You Know

Holy Ghosts And
Talk Show Hosts
Are Planted
In The Sand

To Beautify
The Foothills
And Shake
The Many Hands

Nothing On The Top
But A Bucket And A Mop
And An Illustrated
Book About Birds

See A Lot Up There
But Don't Be Scared
Who Needs Action
When You Got Words?

Finished With The Mop
Then You Can Stop
And Look At
What You've Done

The Plateau's Clean
No Dirt To Be Seen
And The Work
It Was Fun

Nothing On The Top
But A Bucket And A Mop
And An Illustrated
Book About Birds

See A Lot Up There
But Don't Be Scared
Who Needs Action
When You Got Words?

Many A Hands
Began To Scan
Around For
The Next Plateau

Some Say
It Was Greenland
And Some Say
México

Others Decided
It Was Nowhere
Except For Where
They Stood

But Those Were
All Just Guesses
Wouldn't Help You
If They Could.
