lyrics

1

There’s something there
Where ?
Love is a prayer,
our bodies:
prayers beads
Remembering god
in our gardens,
skin and soul

Gaze shuffling
strange places
Sacred geometry
"fuck faces"

Sucking out the poison,
our nightly rejoicing

Crumbling at her altar
altered states
Labial consonance
heavens gates

2

Trembling on the
citronella plateau
Clouds engulfing peaks,
starry skies they obscure
Leaving traces on
eucalyptus leaves,

brimming with
moonlight
Fluttering alluvial quiescence,
midnight

Children of the equinoxes
aching to express destiny
undoing themselves in
entropic lapses

Everyday the sunsets
but somewhere
another star collapses
