Sarah D’s Notes in Margin:

Ghost of Allen comes over all enigmatic for this Nick Drake-ish number:


The man by the bar
On a stool
With his guitar

The man by the bar
With his hands
Over the strings
Of his guitar

And his mind so far

Know that he loves her
Know that he doesn’t care

The man with the
Guitar so rare

And his mind so far

He is the clown and the parasite
He is the shadow and the dream
Of all the things that lie
Behind what we seem

He sings the song
Of his life almost finished

Know that he loves her
Know that he doesn’t care
