The holes in your hands,
And the blood on your brow,
They mean nothing,
At all.
Supreme masochist.
All the feet that you kissed,
It changed nothing,
At all
When we come, we drink,
we form, we hate,
we doubt, we call,
We become
When we cry, we walk,
we serve, we feel,
we write, we feed,
We become
When we end, we turn,
we have, we see,
we start, we need,
We become
When we stumble, produce,
diminish, compete,
abandon, unlock
We become
In the cold, in the dark,
In the pain, in the scars,
When alone with what’s ours
We become
In the cold, in the dark,
When it all falls apart
Alone with our holes
We become
And I’ll stab my eyes in the sight of my god.
And I’ll flay my skin in the sight of my god.
And I’ll burn my hair in the sight of my god.
And I’ll break my fingers in the sight of my god.

Abhorrent love retains a festive air
in hindsight’s shadowed glow. But once the glare
intrudes too far to ever be concealed,
a second skin of wisdom can get sealed
too tightly, unless penances are made.
In essence, memory becomes a trade-
off in this exchange of dreams: Cheating death,
while keeping their psyches crossed, their twinned breath
discharges fragrant spoor into the ground.
Rain whips the conjoined lovers; a hell hound
growls nearby. The music of the spheres turns
dissonant, as the vessel slowly burns:
Tracing this mystery back to its sources
requires tact, and a knowledge of corpses.
