Shellstar 06:06
Nothing changes the condition: dormant sooted desertion When a violet peeling shows teeth glowing, horizons fleeing, lilacs swaying A sublime wander through summer fire The char the ash the cough the roar I question the reason for the freedom in unfeeling I question the reason in this furnace of revealing Salvage the illusion of once mint gardens Before a violet peeling showed teeth glowing, horizons fleeing, lilacs swaying When it takes you, you’ll be remembered young and kind for all time I question the reason for the freedom in unfeeling I question the reason in this furnace of revealing All my reasons gone Flooded with raining Levees are breaking Houses are bursting Sisters are sleeping Yearning for touch but it’s all too much

In Blur 05:29
In blur, father glanced over stirred Imagined you laughing Muddied feet dancing What is this aching prism? This prison wincing Receiving sudden swaths of dogma Wandering over royal yonder Wandering over flooded ground again What does daylight look like in this chaos of cold? What does daylight look like? Solitude and falling into respites now In blur, hovered Accepted devotion Unearther, bleeding ark of creation… Who are you now? Forgive the trembling love, I’m weak and acting bold and alone

Quiet as a cradle, I laid in a middle night drift, spinning Hissed at the moon Conjured up the flowers to fix my impression of the gloom I feel them all Great mass of color flooded in my bed I feel them all Great mass of color flooded in my bed Dissolving into red Half awake holding my ghost in the morning Sunlight coming down the bend Maroon sky on the send My great former terror When trees gave doves the leaves and I was grim drunk death— a stranger to myself I feel them all Great mass of color flooding in my bed I feel them all Great mass of color flooding in my bed Dissolving into red Can I accept I’m real? Do I need this affection? Do you? Do you need this confusion? Do you? Living trapped inside this body Soft, haunted, waiting, wanting Measured change evades real healing Taking love with little reason Seeing you as I was: behind a locked door, nervous and a fool Seeing you as I was: desperate for men to guide you You are the sea and nobody owns you

Frigid bedroom capture in a Spring without desire Harvesting brightness despite drawn to the heat, not the light I lay steady Stare at the ceiling waking fears of nothing You lament for wasps You glow cobalt in the home of the friendless Another night spent fussing, feasting like the lords, laughing at the fronting, singing to the chords of Hell imagined In this perfect hour Gasping in a sleepless kneel Holding onto gleaming teal I lay steady Stare at the ceiling waking fears of nothing You lament for wasps You glow cobalt in the home of the friendless Another night spent fussing, feasting like the lords, laughing at the fronting, singing to the chords of Hell imagined Lament for wasps Cobalt blue Once again this color sees an end

Villain 05:41
A cold floor fit for you in all your midnight itching No one coming quickly to save you from the After Hurried with the hounds now He’s my own Eclipsing my love, his rottweiler sermon He’s my own Driving the talons, my own villain rising 30 months I’m still asking if 30 months feels strong 30 months I’m seeking a 30 months’ fortune Inform my mother’s people 30 months is war dealing with the blood of 30 years well worn He’s my own Eclipsing my love, his rottweiler sermon He’s my own Driving the talons, my own villain rising You’re not alarmed by this heady division? My own villain rising

The Gnashing 05:34
Buried secrets Mythic meanings in tender oceans spilling crimson A leaking thimble flowing fragile Oozing tension into blue Hear these howls hurling our present I know what this costs us Hear these howls Embrace the gnashing I know what this costs us I know it’s exhausting you Without you, I am hushed A hush like cloaking garments over shivers In this honeyed season, why are the boys bleeding? Have your tears touched someone’s eyes tonight? Now I see you’re weeping with reason

In dreams speaking in other language Held you closely Fed on lightning How could you see beacons shining in the shallow? How could you know relief while sinking to mirages out of view? Crawl and wander Tears to water Growing this garden alone How could you see beacons shining in the shallow? How could you know relief while sinking to mirages out of view? Blues and golds— jewels for Heaven knows I know I hear the sound Imagine loving you at funerals for the few Navel gazing birds escaping before the quake comes crashing Waiting in the light to die Bound wet legs splayed for the heat wave Waiting in the light to die

Mombasa 08:17
Stranded naked on the sandbar, echoed from the stars Neon sea snake cemetery roaming under dusk Doberman visions You’re undressing— mute and bleary Hillside castles baking down to sand Shamed red Chopin plays awful sounds from the dresser Nurses hands carving in slate hummingbird gestures Sleeping in nectar Teething on freedom The hospital bed filled with your apathy In a haze of heat, a father hums his tragic song Before the cold sees its ceremony in your icy eyes, the daybreak glance given Travel now Where they can’t let you down Where you can’t fail them now
