oh the air was shining

shining like a wedding ring

barbed like sex

i felt 10,000 volts

my chest was full of eels

pushing through my usual skin

i opened up new wounds

pouting, shouting



oh love - like liquid falling

falling in cascades

oh love-lorn victims laughing

laughing in cascades



the sun was rich

rich with a song of sin

my breath melted my words

into strange alphabets

tormenting my tongue

pouting, shouting



the heartbeats were echoing

echoing the revolver

emptying into my mouth

i pulled a face from my pocket

and smiled a leper's grin

i felt somebody close

pouting, shouting
