about

A poem about death to a peppy drumbeat (I think it is the "Amen Break"). Explored near a roller coaster, for some inexplicable reason.

lyrics

Death

Death is become malicious
Creeping
Across pockmarked land
Erupted with smokey fire-flue flame
'Neath burnt skies
To devour
(Rancid-breathed from the rot of the loved)
Another
And how can I not fear?
How can I not fear?

It comes for me, too
Eating its way down the timelane
Zeno-biting my ass
Digesting my eternity
For eternity

Love feels exactly like fear; had you noticed?
Heartrush, breath, breath, flush
As if faced
(fight or flight (or fuck))
With Death;
Fear, of loss
Of self
Of you
Of all, of all

I face fear by hiding
I face fear by running
I face fear by buying a ticket and waiting in line,
Clutching your hand
Popcorn and frybread
Lying heavy in my stomach
Rattle-clatter screaming
Comes to a stop, and we move forward in line
And soon we will ride
All the way
All the way
