up and over

skin surfaces still
grows through
map-points and
hair and scar tissue

your teeth on edge
your feet shake and
your jaw ache said

i am determined this time
i am on fire this time
i am your fire eyes

your hands on head
your lips twist and
your lightning says

i am determined this time
i am on fire this time
i aim your fire eyes
at the moon

and i talk to her
and i will not stop
pulling the skin up
and over your lies
and the wind replies

i am determined this time
you are on fire my child
aim your fire eyes at my sky

open her up my child

pull out the bugs and the flies
drag the windingtwistingtape
up and over your lies

open her up my child

dig down the pulsing bitter lines
dig down into the synapse sighs
dig down and take hold until you know

open her up my child

i will give you your thunderstorm tonight


your head on land
your heart in your hands
your jaw ache said

you're on that road
i'll keep pushing and
your lightning says

open her up my child
the wind replies, open her up my child
the wind replies open her up,
my child
dig down and take hold til you know
