lyrics

77 …Was it with penny we clothed the train tracks?
78 My insides aching, longing for tomorrow’s prize:
79 For tonigvht their flesh melts, and insides spill.

80 We watched the nutcracker waltz across the room
81 As the walnuts lost their wings.
82 Side by side we washed our face, longing for sleep.

83 At night a skeleton you were,
84 With skeleton key teeth.
85 Side by side lying in your bed,
86 Owls blew the wind chimes
87 Made of skeleton keys,
88 To ward off the silence.

89 (Sensing dread) From the hope chest,
90 My Grandmother, your lover’s, ghost came,
91 Oracular she told me
92 To “Know Thyself”.{xv} Auricley
93 She pressed her palms against my eyes,
94 Coaxing into silence.
95 That night I lost my baby teeth. Thirty years later
96 My flesh peels off the attics of my spine.

97 Every night I’m a skeleton, a little more,
98 Until the night I die.
99 Within my exoskeleton, my memories leakintg,
100 will it dry until I die...{xv}



(xv) The aphorism, “Know Thyself”, was inscribed on the portico to the Temple of Apollo (Delphi).
(xvi)“7 5 3 1 Prime numbers moving toward an infinite zero! Time is progressively faster as we get older.” –Momoko Morton Å

déCollage Denver, Colorado

If Salvador Dali’s paintings were translated into music, they would sound like déCollage. déCollage is a community of artists and musicians fused together by mad audio scientist, Reed Fuchs. Their shows are known for being theatrical, avant-garde, and free-spirited. déCollage is interested in sounds for their own sake; in this way their music is World, the world of sound, the world’s sound. ... more
