lyrics

Nature loves to feel composed
and chilling, flopped at angles,
projectile-spitting dramaturgy,
full of strange sensation, tempered
and terrible, pink and spilling.

I saw a vision of lecturing stars, smirking
above another city’s languid dialectics.

Life is a fascinating wrath-basket,
a wretched and moth-worn joker,
a nebula spilling out from cornucopia
of lacerating dreams.

Why not befriend the art in it—
Dissolve into juxtaposition?

History’s venom tingles like menthol
and store-bought forgiveness.
Tell Love we have a fist-full each of fervor,
grief, and goose down shadows.

We could make wings from queer
limbs like penumbrae, get Void-fucked
and glow on the right side of madness!

Let’s refuse consciousness.
Rest from all poison.
Rest with the weight of a stone
O’er the cavern and cloth of you,
Not with the black and blue
Crush of a toxin enshrouding a toxin.

And of gosling fever
And feather down shades,
Ever let there be

Euphoria
That tastes like snow
Before it’s spoiled.
