the hive
after we buried all the bodies
under the wilting sun
as the darkness began to rise
we swore we’d live for them
under their monuments
so glorious
but our error ignited
brain scent, broken
all of these planets
not single specimen
and when the moon had all but faded
the graves had disappeared
that oath we made carried us through the haze
past toxic blossomers
under their monuments
so glorious
but our error ignited
brain scent, broken
all of these planets
not single specimen
in a field of them
lest we become
bound for extinction
in the bitter cold
they’ll never know
they call these ghosts burdens
under their monuments
so glorious
so split their head and crawl inside
there’s nowhere left here - uncolonized
take all their trinkets and their rocks
use them all as our building blocks
for their error ignited
brain scent, broken
all of these planets
not single specimen

the banality supreme

the banality supreme
in the drive-thru, melting inspiration
hands stuck to teeth while our face evaporates
is there salt inside the bag?
‘cause there’s a long way home may never make it, but
it’s so nice to see you again.
would you mind smearing that smile back on my face?
sorry, just wanna check there’s no cheese on this shit
‘cause there’s a long way home may never make it,
such a
long way home.

the ogre
who he was when all the days gone by
all those women he’d cannibalized
their echoes all faded, except one refrain
all he could hear was that curse she had made:
“whoa that hunger - shall consume you!
whoa- with every piece - that void will grow!”
he’s a heart breaker
too long a heart breaker
still he broke them, swallowed their remains
with every morsel hallower he became
those bitter moments his lips had stolen
shriveling don juan, wretched decomposer
he’s a heart breaker
too long a heart breaker
long after all his dust is all gone
all those husks he’d thought discarded
day by day they grow whole again
he could never truly break what he never truly had
he’s heart breaker
too long a heart breaker
