Broken Flowers
04:44
|
|||
I wrote a suicide letter
but just for fun
told you were my Hiroshima
a broken flower in a wheelchair
who just happened to fly away
Now wrists peeled
as bananas open
dive the tub
no promises broken

GHOSTS
03:44
|

As you walked behind the corner
only amity and misgivings stayed
Really assigned for absence
and still sometimes
in the float of the night
you make your way back
from somewhere
behind the supermarket
and creep
into my seething heart, again
Wondering for ghosts
melting bland fingers
on the glass boards of life
and suddenly it's summer,
juice and fun

Ritual 1
03:57
|
|||
Walking into a room filled
with scent of needles
eating teeth, some tongue
then falling in love with a dentist
ripping together some marbles
of golden splashed future
waking up 10 years after
in a city filled with umbrellas
drive sixty U-turns
to plant them to the ground and wait
for an unknown pool to dry
Now walking around with head
full of mist and washing tablets
getting this idea like a bright
white lava-lamp dropped into
empty aquarium to steal
a million matches
soke them with water and ties
asking directions
to the city filled
with umbrellas

Black Hawk's Ride
04:32
|
|||
This journey
one must make
beautiful blasphemy
in re-fillable icons to take
Carrying a gun
in case of encounter:
childhood
white mooses or both
|

In the waters
something dreaming
in the waters
something passing
High tides, pressures of the deep
ropes attached, plastic in your feet
revealing bleached beauty onto me
Such a bizarre posture
in a way you fleet
almost as if
you weren’t meant to bleed
Longing to take you
back behind the artificial lights
longing to take you back
where 90 minutes
just flies
