about

Hymn of intergenerational curses being broken over the collective knee of the revolutionary

lyrics

The ancient echo of blood
dries like it bleeds through
the pages of time
the mass death implied by mixed tones
and forgotten tongues

Atrophiied social organs
at the fringes of the dying empire
called to what once was before
a sacred duty
to those who will come to be
patterns of life must once again
become etchings in the flesh
roadmaps of the waterways
as rituals of war
become the oars thru the streams of life

communal cleansing
the flesh and the hearthfire
preparation of the home
where the ancestors are interred
within the walls

Laying into the grooves
left by the tank treads of ritual
blood-sprinkled papers
burn gold and illuminate
visions in the copal resin smoke

gazing into the hollowed sockets
of the inevitable and accepting what
will be as lifetimes of toil dissipate with the illusions of what once seemed so real

All returns to breath
inverted trees drawing life
from the air with or without
the conscious mind

individualist delusion mistakes the fruit for the tree
disregarding the mystery that causes both to be
the slow grope for eternity, the accumulating complexity
of the material forms return once more to the void
from whence they came, only to be released
again, like a breath slightly held, or curse broken,
whos caster has long ago died
