The unpurged images of day recede; The Emperor's drunken soldiery are abed; Night resonance recedes, night walkers' song After a great cathedral gong; A starlight or a moonlit dome disdains Before me floats an image, man or shade, Shade more than man, more image than a shade; For Hades' bound in cloth May unwind the winding path; A mouth that has no moisture and no breath Breathless mouths may summon; I hail the superhuman; I call it death-in-life and life-in-death. Midnight on the Emperor's pavement flit; Flames that no faggot feeds, nor steel has lit; Oh don't stop Don't stop Don't stop on my account.

i'm a river in a forest wide i'm a shrivelled pine on a mountain side at least, i have a view i'm stuck on you

Rub Me Raw 02:58
antiquated rasps clamour down the portal into wholly apathetic ears chalk-line silhouettes mark every street a game of freeze-tag played by grown-ups towers topple on either side where does all this lightning come from? dry philosophy, torn and tossed tinder for the poor man's fire greedy fingers paint a fear work the soil instead, my friend revert to see-saw innocence heart and head of equal stone
7.
we inhale sacred perfumes together we make candlelight drinking coffee in porcelain cups good heavens, marry me tonight frightening monsters through attic windows we race greyhounds on our bloodbikes feathered fevers in marble glaze nightly nightly your face glows solomon i wish i were noble i wish i was brave X3 like you under the sun of writing books there is no end (annoint your heads with oil clothe yourselves in white) (annoint your heads with oil clothe yourselves in white)

Pills 04:56
we sail our ship into the bay and dive in twilight waves whales crowned with forests and mountains of villages with candles in the windows it is nighttime the whales are spinning waves in whirpool fashion the bay rushes out to meet its mother and we are bruised on seaweed in the wreckage there are rocking chairs broken dolls, sewing machines rusted cars, rocking horses and bones, ribs and skulls we hold hands because we are afraid we hear the whistling and the rushing again the moon pulls high the ocean's starlings and then down and we drink our death
