This is a story about a girl
who attempts to defy a series
of "scientific"
understandings
which to all but trained professionals seem like
something everybody knows.
The watching eyes and open mouths and open ears say:
All the worlds a stage - take a bow.
So what do we expect?
We see: someone walking forward
slowly but indefinitely towards
something incomprehensible,
not understandable,
illogical
or just harder.
maybe just harder

Gotham City

She is the wind cooled down - all the way cold.
Blue is the blood of power. Black are the dusted bones.
and I would've fallen for her, she is dispairs cold flower.
Pulled at the strings above her - run with lust of power.
She is deaths ice charm , lonelinesses slow song.
She is the watchers eye to her own requiem:
And I would've fallen for her - she is the hangmans moon.
White is the face that draws us - black is the edge of ruin.

The Factory

Here in the steel-mill we are forming
farming the templates of facade.
Barbed and explicit, they are anchors
weighing the measure of the stars.
Spitting the sparks of ultimatum
turning the wheel like a blade
calling the ironman and his daughter
lie in the maiden that we've made.
cos they are and they are and they are
Combing hte gutters of compliance
reaping the fallout of the raized
welding the steel of redemption
walk on the ladder when you've paid
cos they are and they are and they are

Sunset = CMYK
high tide is the pull
of the moons gravity.
Birdsong = key: harmonic minor
outgrowth is the product
of air over water
Death is a lost competition
(and pitiful)
My hate and my love
is chemical.

Part II
06:02
|
|

So what if I'm bored
and ordinary?
With mysteries' hands
you tear the winter
I miss the strange skies
and broken weather
In strong enough arms
the carriers are leaving
and rain will fall
with silence waiting

Not Because
03:52
|
|

Not because you are
so weird and
not because you are
bored, but
when you said you were well
we heard you
and it's not because you are,
but you are what you are
Not because you are
so deluded
not because you are so
much more
but when we found you were well
god help you
and it's not because you are
but you are what you are

The Sentence

Here in the coolroom -well you: you wont,
lie to the stone cold - and you: you wont,
fold with the air -and you: you wont,
walk with the dead -and you: you wont,
Talk.
Lie in the bed, boy - and you: you wont,
bleed like a martyr child - and you: you wont,
sing with breeze - and you: you wont,
call to the hail light - and you: you wont,
Talk
Cold in the dim shade - you: you wont,
stretch to the sunlight - and you: you wont
Talk

The Trend

The golden child smiles discontinued dreams
with words that flow too easily to hear.
The swimmers dive and try to catch the waves -
their laughter flows like honey coated razor blades.
And she is just some little girl who likes to pick the flowers
and show them how to make the grade
She rides the crest of manufactured waves and says that
she's become what she herself has made:
And someone used to say the tide would turn.
And when it does, be where you want to be.
The winds of change blow singing with her tears :
and pulled her out and drowned her instead of me
I am higher, I am higher.
Holier than you
Holier.
