1.
You sink seven lances in the sand but your fowl strut murmuring where they please and there are foxes and those foxes are you and me. Where the ocean meets the stone, keep your eyes open: watch the shadows emerge from the pines and know those shadows are you and me. Overturn my cup. Hang me by my knees. Overturn me.
2.
These memories are easy to drink to a standstill but it's these dreams and the feeling they leave that ain't so easy to shake. And I want this grave dust to blow away, not because it's too much, but because it's become not nearly enough. You tell me that I'm not a specter as you pass straight through me. And you tell me that I'm not a spider as you bat me with a broom. I kneel in this changing water and I wet my hands and I wet my hair and I wet my teeth and I wet my eyes and everything changes. Yeah, everything but me. I can never not be me. Yeah, who might he be?
3.

about

A self-fulfilling prophesy laid down in hand-worn cards. The scorched-fuse tedium of always remembering versus one's impossible attempt to ever forget. Whether you stand where the ocean thrashes against the crippled roots of the pines or in the city's spot-lit night streets. Where your own body is your enemy. Where the concrete holds the heat.
