Crumbs + Crumbs

wind me down
kill me with whys
hold my hands
come closer
why are we still here
collecting crumbs
spinning like the fan that
cools us down
my heated paranoia

Lyrics
oh the little hat
with the corners up and brim
feeling fine I can fly
through the night to the ocean swim
in the movement of eyes
there are sand grains wrapped up in
milky folds folded up
I can hear your screaming skin
I’m on the fence
I’m on the floor
I’m on the phone
I wanted more
I can see life through
they don’t take my skin for clothes
I don’t fear the chew
all the meat stays on my bones
in a head canoe
I can float the blue back home
with an old tattoo road map
engraved on a talking stone
I’m on the fence
I’m on the floor
I’m on the phone
I wanted more

Hospital
04:42
|
|||
do you feel like a ghost
when you walk into rooms
do you stare at the sun
to shake off your earthy tombs
you woke up in hospital
you thought that you were back in school
can insects feel the pause
in clamping lizard jaws
do flowers hang their heads
over trampled brothers’ beds
the wedding was sublime
the bride looked like a queen
and you, you woke up in hospital
the same one that you were born into

ANSA
02:37
|
|||
get your birds
set their wings free
they can turn
now they’re so pleased
using up your days
on the silver screen
carving it up to
priest-like calligraphy
I’m not afraid
make a plan
grow your own food
use the land
nature gave you
giving it up to fate
and now you’re no fool
a terminological
inexactitude
I’m not afraid

Mirrors + Mirrors
05:32
|
|||
scared me out of my skin
hear it close but I don’t let it in
the freest fall, the welcome earth
we’ll make it out if we get to them first
the muffled strum of hearts
the relentless drum of a muscle in charge
a rumble sound, the round and round
the push and pull tiny pieces and how
collecting fears like beer caps
I heard a noise did anyone else hear that
the sound that’s flowing smoothly through
my auditory canals
we’re all wrong, we’ve all done wrong

Matisse Palette
03:14
|
|||
we lay at the coast
you in your Matisse palette
me in my borrowed coat
blinking the negatives
scoring the scene
you talk like a old man
decomposed and jabbering
if you’ve nothing nice to say
maybe you should stop
the wave hangs for a moment
then folds in on itself
like it has forever
like it will forever
a temporary fix
there are too many waves
all waving at once
in every direction
to no one
I set my lungs
to the breathing of the water
we breathe in
and out
and in
and out
and in
and out

Safe Flight
03:17
|
|||
follow star lines
hollow empty boxes
down came the tree
a home, a heart
I wish you safe flight
I’ll miss your wings
your beak tapping wood
your tiny house
spun from leaves
come back any time
