"March Threatened" (Christopher Shotola-Hardt)
What would we do
If we knew we could?
What would we do
If we knew we should?
Would we hide?
Would we hate?
Would we fight?
Would we love?
What would we do
If we knew we could?
What would we do
If we knew we should?
Would we move away
Come what will, what may?
Would we find a home?
Would we belong?
What would we do
If we knew we could?
What would we do
If we knew we should?

"Magpie" (Christopher Shotola-Hardt
Magpie,
what’s this shiny thing?
my heart
fly it home with you …
over there, away
so far away.
We’re not safe here
Magpie, fly away
can you take us
home?

"I’ll Be Waiting" (Christopher Shotola-Hardt)
Trouble’s brewing, trouble’s here
They will take me soon, I fear
When you look I may be gone
Know I love you and be strong
I will break free, I’ll escape
I will meet you at that place
Keep your head up, keep your pride
You and our children must survive
I’ll be waiting
I’ll be waiting
I’ll be waiting
I’ll be there
They will come to look for me
You won’t tell them anything
Keep your head down, hide your pride
To all their questions, tell them lies
Leave the farm and close the house
Before the ice comes you must be out
Take our children cautiously
Tell no one you’re meeting me
I’ll be waiting
I’ll be waiting
I’ll be waiting
I’ll be there

"Migration / The V" (C.Shotola-Hardt, D.Andrews, M.Andrews)
Wind
Wind in my hair
No reason
Angle of light …
Standing in this cloud
wind all around
hat sits still
hands in pockets
vapor beneath
caressing my shoes
So far … some will die
Do not sleep
Beat your wings
Continue to fly!
Up here with geese
wearing our over coats
standing in this cloud
geese all around
in the middle of the V
wind all around … migration
Geese all around
Hat sits still
Hand in pockets
Geese all around
