sorry no statement |
|
bullet point press release |
so at least two come together |
work the words into the ground |
a growing clash |
wash the brain |
in a war of invisible grime |
withdraw from utopia |
ongoing, immaterial |
we’re in a bloody mess |
invisible chains chaining |
|
teach the angels not to stare |
free-agent catalysis or |
for there’s no outside of violence |
a medieval hospitality |
and the circle becomes |
us, provincial mercenaries |
vicious when it's broken |
suspicious with each stride |
cut it out, let it bleed |
of the body inside out |
|
don’t trust the salesmen |
|
|
We are talking through a previous event |
there will be a joust |
we don’t know what to expect |
the catch is to never connect |
in this ongoing space, in-between |
the world second-hand |
in a tight space |
oh, partner, oh grabbing heart |
And this is all we can offer |
how could I do it alone? |
to the serious captives |
do we consent to our entrapment? |
that counsel our world into shape |
(these are also things we fear) |
