incorrectly identifying the arias of mario lanza due to the sheer volume of the voices in our heads

my heart it beats an island - a rivulet of iron blood

that pulses below the sand with questions

 

like my place among the stars

like the pressure

how it builds-

on carbon

 

 then release! release! release!

 

like diamonds

like teeth

like father

 

like a place to cut the wildfire from our minds

while in the womb of the great, black dragon

you ask me what it is to see our lord

◄ become something frail

my pain and sadness is more sad and painful than yours ►

..maybe incorrectly identifying most everything due to the sheer volume...

There are some things which make themselves apparent that cannot be identified by complete sentences, but by only jutting words and phrases--this is one of those things and it is magnificent.

Hope you're well Stu,

Another poem of yours to read while listening to Godspeed You Black Emperor.

Love it!
