lyrics

I’m confounded by the stuffed veins and down here there is hope trails and your feet are walking blind disturbing the sublime dust printing the weight of the rupture between the slapped and the slapper. Feet in the sewers, hands long thick walls, head in the smog, your powdered arms touch me as your howls touch the birds, the strings hurt, I’m too precarious / printing the weight of the rupture. I will stay off your heart, hands long, thick walls shade, totally blind. Strings hurt like rain and the rhythm kisses the thunder stuffed veins.
