lyrics

The lord of scraps of paper
of wax, vapor and dust
of breaths not taken

look at the dirt that packs the floor
look at the sun, angling through the window
high on the wall

look at what surrounds you and count
count to ground yourself
to grind yourself

the bitter decades living
the bitter mornings waking
with what you’ve done

the plow bites the earth
the yoke bites the shoulder
of the one wearing it

does it pass father to son
does it recede
mitochondrial

look at the tiles lining the walls
look at the cracks
look at the age spots on your hands

knuckles knobbed and swollen
plastic wrap skin
folding in and stuck

they’re locked in here with you
worse, you’re locked in here with you
wearing grooves into the floor

look at the leaves
cut through with power lines
look through your blurring lens

you’re here alone
your conscience dissolving
look at the dirt that packs the floor
