Pregnant clouds in the sky raining little grey diamonds
Beating on our backs without rhyming or timing
Conditions being broken, truer words never spoken,
They broke in my hope when they stove in my hymen

They came from the back that had been wet by thick storms
Ice cold destruction that came in so warm
and so playful, they pilfered all of my garbage, power blackouts in their
trail, they don’t fail, they brainwash you through porn

In the night’s rotting darkness the harness is tightened
The red marks on your soft pink flesh are not frightened
They’re way more chill than your cruel, cruel brain
Shooting rain out your eyes, and inside your eyes, and down your

Cheeks
Does it hurt that much?
Do I really need to walk with a diamond crutch?
Is it acting or reacting when I cringe at the touch
Of nature’s little finger?

Does it matter if life is a sick sick joke
Or if my only real friends are water and soap?
I’m me, she’s her
Blankets of fur, forever soaked

I said so much but it was wrong
No less so in this pigeon that I call a song
No more so when my veins sang with me
All night long

But they didn’t even sing when it really would have counted
Flesh falling off, my bones still amounted
to more than I’d hoped, and my new way to cope
Is a ghost of “here we go”, around we

Go
We’re back again
Starting up at the moon at ten
You can cut my hand but the blood within
Doesn’t show, cause it doesn’t flow no more


Oh I asked him to hold me
Because I was cold, see
My hands they were shaking
My land was earthquaking
I did what he told me

I held him in
My arms doing
Nothing doing
No harm but he

Pushed me so far away
Leaving no time to say
“Please don’t, I love you so
I do not want to go
If you say so, okay

He held me in
his arms laughing
Cutting strips from
My flesh flashing

Lights from his giant eyes
Breeding like fireflies
Filling the night with green
Of all the things I’ve seen
Nothing was so serene

I lay back in
the grass, cold and
wet, looking up
at a soaring

Shadow that floated a-
-way up to heaven, it
paused for a moment,
Turned back and withered and
Fell down a thousand feet

Splashed and sank in
The water, I
Took one look and
Went inside and

You were there sleeping I
Curled up beside you and
Burned all my memories in-
side me, and tears sprang out
Greeting your frailness and

We fell deeper
Sleep our owner
Loving deeply
Forever soaked

You are my shadow and
You are my emptiness
You are my blood clot for
You are the blood that will
Never flow away again

Never flow away again
Never flow away again
Never flow away again
Never flow away again
Never flow away again
