lyrics

The initial stage of quarantine
returns the mind to its nest
one single bulging eye
muses on the human shaped hole

Patterns emerge from the wreck
of my life’s journey
the torn periods of movement
both psychic & through space
persona & place
violently abandoned

A space is created where your antonyms might bloom
everything you are not
inverted in your totality
is your perceived perfection
  [{ˆ}]
Like a large glass of water filling your stomach
an absence fills you-
to be a body without feeling
a waif jettisoned into eternity
===;’.,

Within the confines of another room
a sad, humming wire worms through my skull
time collapsed upon my head
& from my shattered form
geometric objects pour out onto the carpet
the mind cast over an unseen ocean
while the body wanders the rooms & halls

Horror for the moon
as she built a new universe with mime hands
a gargantuan, semi-flaccid penis on the horizon
its absurd foreskin flapping in the breeze
like an eroded idol
all tones of desert sand
a chrome tunnel attempting to envelope my body
open sesame
existence is a tube
that having sewn both its orifices together
becomes the archetype
for all perpetual motion
[{8}]
[{\}]
Each conversation the distant relative
of some initial murmur
the same scene living out its fate
to be seen from every possible angle
repopulating crisis
repeated actors bathe the media
in their uncanny glow

Familiar faces distort
as they are crushed through the blood line
beginning as a dry cough
cascading into avalanche
a handshake
the coded mimicry of genitals
[{+}]
Walls harden
rejection from the afterlife
404-error
[{=}]
accepting feeling is the only good feeling
