lyrics

among the sunken concrete, encaved
as an eye-socket, among the
giant looming shadows of my
accent, I am crawling,
ephemerally, eternally,
questioning self-pity and pride,
questioning anything made of words.
don't teach me how to walk, don't!

I never asked for privacy.
I lost it, no,
released it, into the galloping lake
gaping open like a desperate mouth, like
my desperate mouth, like my
desperate.

my excrement
is as gorgeous
as a storm.
I'm praying for you with my laughter;
my palms wonder if you
will even kneel.
do you think walls between stalls
make us any less close?

giant
looming
shadows!
giant looming shadows!
do not ask for my breath.
I lost it long ago.

it's not like I planned it all out.
I became comfortable with the vast
not-knowingness of it all, some devil's
constant doubt of my powers,
the lack!
