lay me down so to let you leave tell me lies wanna see your eyes is it a crime to say i still need you? crime, wanna feed you light blue, dark blue, grey crimson trail straight through, stay don’t stray grandmother, juniper tell to me your recipe is it a cry I hear from the deep wood? cry, reappear from the weeds light blue, dark blue, gray crimson trail straight through, stay don’t stray through the jail see the sun flat as a knife cold and white to my home, two rivers through my home, two reverse is it a crime to do what you ask me to? crime
fragilely, gradually and surrounding the horse lies naked in the shed evergreen anodyne decompounding flies draw sugar from his head his eyes are blueberries, video screens, minneapolis schemes and the dried flowers from books half-read the juice of dark cherries cover his chin the dog walks in and the crow lies in his jaw like lead. everything eats and is eaten time is fed early evening the pink ring swallows the spherical marigold terrain sleepily, venus sinks and hollows the stationed headlight of a plane you are as far from me as memory, which fixtures fracture varyingly the juice of dark cherries cover my skin – six years in, no baby everything eats and is eaten ingydar bares a scar like a meteor crystalline amber guilds her cheek tambourine of the beech leaves lead her to the raven playing hide and seek drying blueberries, figurine of the angel leans at the head of the bed the juice of dark cherries cover my skin the dog walks in and the crow lies in his smile like lead everything eats and is eaten, time is fed
staring down the barrel of the hot sun shining with the sheen of a shotgun carol has a little if we need some joa has a ride if we wanna come hangin’ your jeans with a clothes pin skin still wet, still on my skin mango in your, juice drippin’ shoulder of your shirt sleeve slippin’ christmas eve with your mother and sis don’t wanna fight, but your mother insists dog’s white teeth slice right through my fist drive to the ER and they put my on risk grocery store list, now you get pissed unchecked calls and messages I don’t wanna be the owner of your fantasy I just wanna be a part of your family I don’t wanna talk about anything I don’t wanna talk about anything I wanna kiss kiss your eyes again wanna witness your eyes lookin I don’t wanna talk about anyone I don’t wanna talk about anyone I wanna sleep in your car while you’re driving lay in your lap when I’m crying circle of pine and red oak, circle of moss and fire smoke fan on the ceiling like a wheel spoke push the clutch and i pull the choke wanna listen to the sound of you blinking wanna listen to your hands soothe listen to your heart beating listen to the way you move I don’t wanna talk about anything I don’t wanna talk about anything I wanna kiss kiss your eyes again wanna witness your eyes lookin I don’t wanna talk about anyone I don’t wanna talk about anyone I wanna sleep in your car while you’re driving lay in your lap when I’m crying weren’t we the stars in heaven weren’t we the salt in the sea dragon in the new warm mountain didn’t you believe in me? You held me the whole way through but I couldn’t see the words like you I was scared, indigo, but I wanted to I was scared, indigo, but I wanted to I don’t wanna talk about anything I don’t wanna talk about anything I wanna kiss kiss your eyes again wanna witness your eyes lookin I don’t wanna talk about anyone I don’t wanna talk about anyone I wanna sleep in your car while you’re driving lay in your lap when I’m crying
over the dead sea keeping you company, thinking i'm unafraid of you now, I’m unafraid of you now letting my eyes close, shedding my soft clothes wind blows, wind that howls like a hound wind that laughs like a clown mystery of lack stabbing stars through my back forwards, beckon, rebound virtual bedroom rise like a full moon show me pictures that hang in your house pictures that hang in your mouth candescent insects crosses and fishnecks, i have nothing to pray to you now, nothing to say to you now mystery of lack stabbing stars through my back forwards, beckon, rebound pulling your face close, wanting the inmost, show me. I’m not afraid of you now. I’m not afraid of you now. Villain and Violent, infant and innocent, baby both arms cradle you now, both arms mystery of lack stabbing stars through my back forwards, beckon, rebound
cemetery at night and the dog’s in heat the grey owl howls, and you’re probably right believe in better to be leavin’ oh terrifying like a gun, like a gun store the wind road invisible like a blank ghost blanket no trees bent shakey like the first dance shakey like the first time our palms met, in the clam sweat heavy focus, focus set the camera to the flash for a portrait of the spirit only way it’s gonna last to be near it heavy focus, focus focus, focus focus, kiss focus, fokiss
shadow shadow what a show every other strap there’s a crosseyed crow half return, half return Minneapolis, soft white snow 35 bridge, hometown half return, half return standing in the yard dressed like a kid the house is white and the lawn is dead the lawn is dead the lawn is dead Illinois toll road Indiana plain roll the windows down shoot out the change, half return half return honey in your mouth when you gave me my name tears in your eyes when you pull it like a chain half return, half return standing in the yard dressed like a kid the house white and the lawn is dead the lawn is dead the lawn is dead half return, half return rusty swing set, plastic slide, push me up and down take me for a ride standing in the yard, dressed like a kid, the house is white and the lawn is dead the lawn is dead the lawn is dead
come help me die, my daughter walk me beside the river to the beech take a branch with your knife take my left with your right don’t be afraid, my girl, take me into the shore i'm not cold, i'm not cold take my hand take ahold let me lie on your arms i am weightless in the sea up to my ears the salt sits in a circle around me take my life into your life take a branch with your knife come help me die, my daughter
what a dream that was i almost couldn’t wake because i was frozen in bed with a zombie girl vacant as a closed-down fair sleep paralysis, sworn i could’ve felt you there and i almost could’ve kissed your hair but the emptiness withdrew me from any kind of wishful prayer oh, emptiness tell me ‘bout your nature maybe i've been getting you wrong i cover you with questions cover you with explanations cover you with music then the next night dreaming i could feel your skin but the dream escaped so easily and i woke up to the road again how your words ring through something kind of sweet and blue and i knew that you’d been understanding everything that i'd said too about emptiness tell me about your nature maybe i've been getting you wrong i cover you with questions, explanations, music what’s on your mind, what’s on your mind?
through your eyes i see the smile you bring to me to your joy i tether not a lot, just forever intertwined, sewn together like the rock bears the weather not a lot, just forever my dog barks wildly to protect my infancy from my ex-believer i try to calm the wolf to remind her i am both still, she tears at my sweater not a lot, just forever intertwined, sewn together as the wren sheds her feather not a lot, just forever your dearest fantasy is to grow a baby in me i could be a good mother and i want to be your wife so i hold you to my knife and i steal your letter not a lot, just forever intertwined sewn together as the rock bears the weather not a lot just forever so, i bash around the house the poison stains my mouth she comes, i let her and we share a paradise (pair of dice) i roll them once or twice can’t get much better not a lot, just forever intertwined sewn together as the rock bears the weather not a lot just forever
freezing at the edge of the bed chewing a cigarette and repeating shadows of words i said i don’t wanna blame you i don’t wanna blame stars bloom in the warm summer night they have a clear view without the bedroom light they don’t wanna name you they don’t want a name dragons have silent eyes cracked eggshells, fireflies i don’t wanna tame you i don’t wanna tame when the hot sand burns my feet you have cool hands, you are sweet i don’t wanna change you i don’t wanna change carnations into the case unfold your clothes, out of the case i just want a place with you i just want a place as the coastline is shaped by the wind as we make love and you’re on my skin you are changing me, you are changing stars bloom on a warm summer night they have a clear view without the bedroom light i just want a place with you i just want a place
step over the edge too far open my hands to catch a wall nothing to hear but my very own cry far below the rock and sky my angel my angel strange as she appears to be, (she is my) oldest friend invisibly she brushes my hair with a physical hand, lowers my body down to the land my angel my angel beneath the ledge in the morning mist she kisses my eyelids and my wrists wake to the bleeding of the blade of the sun returning to my oxygen my angel my angel

abysskiss
warm so warm screaming in the field as i was born worm, will you return me to the robin’s beak? i’ll be a bird terminal we both know let the rest of me go see my death become a trail and the trail leads to a flower i will blossom in your sail every dreamed and waking hour woman, woman hold me in your heat till i remember terminal we both know let me rest, let me go see my death become a trail and the trail leads to a flower i will blossom in your sail every dreamed and waking hour
no one can be my man be my man be my man be my man be my man be my man no one can be my woman be my woman be my woman one ear to the ground one dog at my neck one tongue to my tongue wanting to protect me from no one can be my man be my man be my man be my man be my man be my man be my man no one can be my woman be my woman be my woman one ear to the floor my dog barking loud couldn’t tell for sure where the screaming sound was coming from one ear to your womb puppy on the floor baby's coming soon wonder if she’ll know where she's come from
seven wide years and there’s soil to till when you thread your fingers through i feel quite well we could be the riptide or two mountains growing still when the eye gets heavy in the womb dripping your tears like a precious warm spring my heart will always find you when your heart freely sings mine would never bind you with a diamond or a word when the eye gets heavy in the womb when the eye gets heavy in the womb woman, mighty woman you’re a friend i need when you hold me to your breast you’re bleeding as i bleed please reveal the question to me let the answers leave when the eye gets heavy in the womb when the eye gets heavy in the womb when the eye gets heavy in the womb when the eye gets heavy in the womb
it cannot be explained like a single membrane same old dream from the pillow laugh along with her laugh lying when she’s lying she gets angry i feel so is it any wonder i get lonesome for you? get out of your mind demons are the dragons she is not a dragon but i’m afraid of her fire my heart is a wagon my heart is a wagon but i can’t push her desire is it any wonder i get lonesome for you? get out of your mind annie, my love pulls the trigger on you get out of your mind and into my arms
cradle more the hours reel cradle more how you feel baby you’re still too proud to come down maybe i’m still too loud to hear all the waves ascend and disappear like a storm, the air you steal glacial form the icy heel baby you’re still too proud to come down maybe i’m still too loud to hear all the waves ascend and disappear earth is born to wound and heal cradle more the hours reel baby you’re still too proud to come down maybe i’m still too loud to hear all the waves ascend and disappear
fly make flea make haste make waste eight makes infinity times i’ve tried to make breaks, embrace for the enemy meet my face to face time try to find the diamond counting time as time counts me, the river to the island do you not do you not tell that smile always makes me well do you see circling through? that’s how one returns from two the symbol of your love is time the symbol of your love is time
blue and red horses on the run i think the angel is jumping the gun little red lantern watching my son maybe the angel is jumping the gun i’m a lot of boy, with a lot of nerve do you wanna toy with me? little red flower on your wrist maybe the angel fired and missed little red flower on your wrist maybe the angel fired and missed i’m a lot of boy with a lot of nerve do you wanna toy with me? little red forest in your room i hope the angel is getting here soon little red forest in your room i hope the angel is getting here soon i’m a lot of boy with a lot of nerve do you wanna toy with me?
try and get some rest i’ll do the rest think to what the roses find with the arms of passion this is how we fashion war’s worried mind in the hour i loved you like it dream it was true in the base of my pine wilderness, vast abyss, will we ever kiss? in her mother's fortress she was brushing horses manes and tails flicking flies naked as the window baby if it’s real, so no need to apologize wilderness, vast abyss, will we ever kiss? love is on her shoulder, love is on the boulder in the eyes, in the eye love never leaves, love is the leaves in the sky in the sky
what can you say to remind me how to be loved by you? wave to the winding river it’s a view of you for the long grass growing in silence there’s an equal knowing inside us calmly showing for to guide us pray you can find me i’ve been busy turning into more transparent i could look a lot like you for the sharp glass cutting of the cold wind the sharp glass loosing of your best friend the story bruising as it’s written rain in your bedroom this is how i love you back to follow the red moon follow her and never look back there’s a star that’s glowing on your eyelash and the wet light moaning as we rehash oh my darling what can you say to remind me how to be loved by you?
to die in your arms your words forming again we kiss very hard and wild to rise in the dark like birds praying on skin we pray with our oxygen Jo, nothing is real we still have that feel you’re closing up the bar i’m warming up the car ten miles away two children of ours they came twirling in we laughed very hard for a while they’ve grown very far and tall how we miss them, though happy they’re traveling Jo, nothing is real but we still have that feel you’re closing up the bar i’m warming up the car ten miles away we set no alarm eyes wide, six a.m. wake up on the farm slowly walk to the barn horse feed you take the yarn i’ll read, i’ll read Jo, nothing is real but we still have that feel you’re closing up the bar i’m warming up the car ten miles away to die in your arms, your words forming again
