All of us Organic greed Overfed All of us Crying out From behind smiles No real words No one cares The lust, the fear All crust and smear Teach us Make us afraid of the familiar Don't work together Can't live apart The polar order No place to start Anxiety separate Issues depend Loving demanding Means to the end Worship the Primate upstart Pretending to be masters Of worlds and gods War on nature Be humble Worship me

Summer Snow 06:58
Wary from the trudge Standing still Souls sinking Watching friends fall Just two talking heads Hair tangled with grass Frozen in the wind Seeking higher places There is no need when drifting away from youth There is no need for a new sensation There is no need between trees and tall prisons There is no need for fear of the wind that blows straight through your ears

Whitebeater 03:19
Festering seeds take root in brain Screaming at the back of sour teeth Fusing with spine Seeping into the arms and legs Animating hate Through the pores Down the cheeks Crawling onto mirror forming Mockery Mocking me Pity hymn Plants a new seed

Sabreteeth 07:50
Outstretched hand Deeper in the river Sinking through teeth To a pale tongued whisper Impressed as a failure Make the journey home Never let it rest Walk the feet off of bones Tie a noose With my frayed rope soul If you can't unravel the knots Cut them out A reversal To become the ground Lost in a reverie Replaying all the memories Kneeling down Repetitions of final sounds Half a life, heartened by hate Crawling up crags that grew faster than me How did I get so close Just to let it take me down Drowning insecurity Bang my head twice For each mistake It makes no difference what I have done Ghost behind The amber eyes Prowling queen Crack bones in your jaws Savor the ego dripping Absorb guilt in your veins Remold me Into a face I've never been
