The depression of sex and lies
Your cadaver comes here, legs before you
Striding forth, heart with the beast
Your body lies, eyes black
Sitting on steps to heaven’s door
Inside we hide, searching the ocean, raw and wild
Look into my dawn, my nights love
Passion juxtaposed in ephemeral slopes
Ride the wind in a caress, strike the stars held in my arms
Beautiful me, I take to damp air
Loose lips drip with heat, melting winter in every gasp
Stalk from limb to limb, stomping little hands
Tears falling to your chest.
The grain of passive skin
Obnoxious with cyanide suicide

Feel me now, please touch what is left
See what I felt, hanging time to dry in stale light
Screams lost in willowing petals
Approach me now, kiss my neck
Choking on the lies that escape my lungs
Hold the bones of these cracking reigns
Crystal euphoric image sculptured in your flesh
Erotic shivers sliver on the second floor
Past the dreams on the first
Hell shrieks as heaven sleeps
I take you home when death turns on the radio
The storms coming on now, we better go fast

Ambience rings in my ears, I take you there
Shameless vice of the shrewd sleeps
Struggling for grace, in the age of today
A child raised in a lion’s den, slumber now
Just wait, soon I will be blind
Sweltering concrete turned to ash
Dust in my smoky mind
Drift with me, I’ll take you home
Feed your loins, your legs before you
Screaming of dreams in cogent white
Angels wept when god twisted towards the stranger
Our bodies lie, with our legs before us
