31: Eye Water






Sirens bury the deep in song so sweet iT call our forever sleep
Men cover their eyes, ears, scream terrified of the beauty they fear
a fallen form, releases mortaliTy in corporeal mourn
Where landscapes of mind live long forgotten
and there is no eye, only falling water







Lyrics: “Blackstar” by Nai Palm

“In the villa of omen, in the villa of omen
Lies a solitary candle
At the center of it all, at the center of it all
You arise, you arise
On the day of execution, on the day of execution
All the women kneel and smile
At the center of it all, at the center of it all
You arise, you arise
You arise, you arise”




“The word hurts, the word hurts
The word hurts, the word hurts
In water, in water
In water, in water”




“Material, slowly unwind as I leave feathers behind
For your love, for your lover to find
Warm hands wrapped in blue linen from Torrington
For your love, for your lover to find
Wild rose, Jericho sun, arid as stone
For your love, for your lover to find
Aorta, tattoo the artery with acute artistry
For your love, for your lover to find”




“Breathing, breathing underwater
Breathing, breathing underwater
Breathe you underwater”




“I want you to breathe it in, I want you to breathe it in
I want you to breathe it in, I want you to breathe it in
The word hurts, the word hurts
The word hurts, the word hurts
In water, in water
In water, in water”
