Remember the Teletubbies

We can't speak with you again
I can speak of and at you
We tried all of the above, we
Cast in marble

At your side, a thing that
Brought such obvious pleasure to your eyes
At your side, a stone Teletubby

It hurts to think about your name
Baby, I struggle to to say your name
What words - said or lettered - could cradle you

Baby, I just want to speak something
Both of us - we want to speak something
Something. Anything. To anyone

The stones aren't nothing
The smile's not nothing
Of all our love of you

I love you
That will stay

Can't make it better. I can't utter - I can't stutter
Anything that will weather, that will stay

I know she's straining
When she says I did justice to our feelings

The stones aren't nothing
The smile's not nothing
Of all our love of you

Everything here - vying for eminence
Record, or penitent
Unravelling into the earth
Going down in silence
