what is our process roam the ruins re/cord the fluids – threading enliven the dead out of work come down here failed, totaled, apart bend pleasure, depart / dig dirt, garden bed until the ground fills the head cyclic buried with the rest until you’re out of this world

Suddenly nerves recite rescind rewrite time bends it grins it always begins Hurtling downwards rewind wound up seeing you alive and well a hand cleaves Fumbling eye a concave cracks bewildered glimpse relax when did you leave? Genuine lines old designs sincere cringe and hear the lies hinge on joy Bearable conscience make a face contagious hate for yourself you little boy Permanent fragment soaked in rain it’s caked in grain forget when morning breaks Happily days collapse a crash a dream collides it aches it will not shake Violent spasm mind derides decides to die ingests the colors I can feel the decline

what're you feeling, mum - pain? in the middle of the night or before you go to bed? is it the same pain that you have during the day? okay, so it's the same pain

Out of my mind subject agape Some part of myself grasps at the shape Of soft angels and a black hole draped Over skin – see myself escape I am alive again and again I am an I friend of a friend I am alive again and again Mode of mind lapse into nothing Heavens and bones veins in the cave echoes in rays trajectory waves Body and home solution crave real-time role-play, no memory saves I am alive again and again I am an I friend of a friend I am alive again and again Mode of mind lapse into nothing I don’t wanna know And die.
