lyrics

Nautical pit
arms bent back
shibari rigging
masthead Christ
St-Andrew's cross and St-Elmo's fire
Tropic of Cancer
Tropic of Mania
Tropic of Hysteria
hope sinks
despair of flotsam

Prayers sang in fission
Kan-Laon pours molten seed
turns water to sky
turns stone to glass
A hole in the Earth vomits flesh-upon-bone
Ecce homo
plague ships docked
cargo transmission

This flower blooms inside you

The sound of being incinerated by a heatwave. Feels like a concentrated beam of sand hits you in the chest, splattering grains like shrapnel. Amazing record. Fuck you, Adam Lehrer. I bet your podcast blows. phoebe}}}}}}}}}}}}
