She's been living in a hole in the ground

She's been living in a hole in the ground
Digging down, instead of out
Six feet under a willow, no doubt

She's been lying in a bed of clay
Day by day, quicksand weather
Sinking into the pins and feathers

She says, that's where the seeds grow
Then uses salt to fill the hole
