1.
stutter
stutter
change core
there are
these dreams
which come to me
more truth
than fiction
that my tragedy
tore portrait
to shreds
ignite tempest
in garden
sleep
sing to spectres
blindness cure
believe
immutable fact
born
in shallow grave
amongst wildflowers
flood comes
storm begins
sing to spectres
2.
tear apart torso
of this & that
animal or beast
3.
shoot depth
into depth
locked in luminescence
breathe branches
broken
twigs
palpitations pierce
& ignite
4.
pretend to stay
silent & still
watch carefully how
dawn rots
5.
fury silent
as scream
centred in stomach
circumstances cruel
concise
begin
to be beast
burn
sheets of skin
secret to stone
6.
créatures come
patient
prudent
birds
fly over flesh
fields
turn wing
towards
totem
7.
deliberate
divine
in manner
matter burns
weave wings
now
under stress
suspend silhouettes
sewn with skin
knot's
night
8.
ring bells
until it breaks
heart
9.
do
job of job
sort
stones in sorrow
there is
no
other
way of weeping
10.
memory
collides with stars
altering axis
of abyss
simple truth
come after storm
set facts straight
straight to hell
hear heartbeat
gouges
dance
from flesh's
frame
exploration unnameable
method
no consolation
