Rockhorn

Onyx glimmers on the Rockhorn's breath.
Two hundred tons of solid granite.
Shaped by the sand. Nobody's hands.
Cut from the earth, grounded by dirt.
Stone goats, take back the night.
Arise, arise ancient ones.
Shake the ages from Southern horns.
Calcified strata, bones of the ocean, hot breath and wet stone.

I'll be goddamned if my obituary reads
“Here lies an invasive species. He never swam upstream.”
And if I return home as a hero,
Will they fill my gills with flowers,
Or rub my belly with spices
And roast my soul upon a fire?
A faithful servant of evolution.
A patient insurgent.

Goddamn It
02:02
|

There's a plague of frogs inside my skull,
stripping copper from the walls. God damn it.
Acetone in exhausted veins. Erosion has the final say.
Stripped, scatted and spayed. Fed to the snakes.
Dumped in the lake. Relieved of faith.
Craving sulfur instead of water – heart, skin, body, liver – god damn it.
The stink of earth is on my breath. Sucking air through a hole in my chest.

Sucking mud from the mouth of the delta.
Growing fat on the byproducts – non-essential nutrients, water corrosion.
Swollen with poison. Old as the ocean.
Internally salted – rusted to all hell.
Everybody's got their reasons to sit on the bottom, gathering moss.
Drink to the end. Carry the weight of a cirrhosis shell.

Gas Giant
01:55
|

Faces glowing under hideous sunsets.
Broken hands holding on for dear life.
I'm not ashamed to admit I hope only one of us survives.
A force, a compulsion, like hunger or gravity.
This cloud of gas and dust ain't big enough for both of us.
There are storms underneath the surface that can kill for twenty years after.
This cloud of gas and dust ain't big enough for both of us.

Suffocated by Hutts
01:00
|
|||
Huff sand and Bantha crap.
A mass of sweat and fat.
Feel that spine snap.
Suffocated by Hutts.

Sky Burial
01:21
|
|||
Bound to the ground for fear of fire
Giver of alms, salt of the earth,
Averting their eyes for fear of the light
Feeder of birds, cells of the earth.
Sloughed off the surface,
Back inside the coil.
Bones broken against frozen soil.
