Word Up

I was called black and silver

out of gold of mine

I was called strange and still blur

without remold of mine

I gave myself

and all that's part of me

to Arthur's way of life

I was called with shouts and with purr

older names of mine

I was called darling and cur

of beloved of mine

I gave myself

and all that's part of me

to Arthur's way of life

you are gone, but you left visions and spur

your work is a mine

I'm just one palm tree between firs

that's the end of mine

I gave myself

and all that's part of me

I'm a little lost in time
