about

Written in 2018 for a spooky art history project in the works.

lyrics

I’ve seen your art.
Mine flows the same.
It courses through these crooked veins.
Make blue my skin,
Make warm extremities.

What can we make
Of vague malaise
In strained, untempered, threatened days?
We saw those engines built on steam
And raised them ages
Fueled by blunt fatigue.

Fire on the heart line
Cracks along the life line
Hunger in the bloodline
Echoes through the hive mind

What have you done
To last the day?
What wicked prices did you pay?
What breadcrumb fragments of yourself
Got dropped along the way?

I’ve done as much
If not the same—
No dignity to grace my name.
Nobody makes it out alive
Or as the self-same self
From whence they came.

Lightning on the power line
Fractals in the design
Secrets in the sub-mind
Reverb on the timeline

Lightning on the power line
Cracks along the life line
Fire on the heart line
Reverb on the timeline

One last chance
To fall to bottom please—
Spare us of these rotten auguries!
Let the Void devour back the disease.
