OUR SOLE DELIVERANCE in coal mark fingerprints
sealed up forever–all we have is the floor
Laws and consequence will grow as heaven sent
till field of accidents no plan can afford
River struck from stone colonial rages home.
Old seer shown none but your own face in the sword.
Death dreams deeper than our mines and questions reach:
in state, in corporate, and in why or wherefore.
Sow your seed against the day of recognition, turn the open grave, make peace with our lord
It's too late to be graded, it's too late to be helpless, for sake of the waste for the making of war
The course is set and sent
To Tartarus on our bent backs
Plotted, paid grace, the sky waits
Fury changing hands
Eumenides taming plan tracks through the
Forest laid waste and made safe
Time machine descends from the cloud to the ground
Cyborg steps out, says it’s already right now
But as they’re hopping back in, getting ready to bounce
We’re not convinced or decided
We say thou liest!
Centuries later a steamship heaves into view
Smokestacks all smoking and so are the crew
Passengers dancing under night sky darkest blue
And then the iceberg and the panic
It’s titanic!
I’m coming out of my blackout in the pouring rain
To stand and be judgèd before the chorus in shame
But I lost my glasses so can I truly be blamed
And may I be somewhat forgiven?
Oh it’s a living!
Terrible namelessness, gloved and assumed
Who’s behind us and who’s in pursuit
Pray spur onward, in flesh lives the boot-
heel. Who dances and who calls the tune?
Be reincarnate in carnival state
Sublimation wherein stay the age
Of chained Erinye’s children brought up on stage
In the future which we’ve entertained
Hello murder, hello forever, here I am in rising water
Numb eternal sleepless drive into the storm
