Life

Add to a playlist More from this artist

(This post is meant to be read out loud along with the above soundtrack)


The straining violin of God's voice.
A tiny light made infinitely bright.
A heave and a sigh.

The manic banging of keys.
An astronaut cut from his lifecord.
A birth. A cry.

The iambic pulse of God's heart.
The stuttered steps of his boyfawn.
A gentle youthsong.

An opera of unknowable words.
A treefrown, a wounding, a lie.
The broken everything.

An opera of unknowable words.
A treefall, a tearing, a pieta.
The broken everything.

An opera of unknowable words.
(...)
(...)

The quiet.
The empty.
Startover.

....
....
....

After this tangled shoestring:
The Milkwhite Peaceriver
Of God's ether.
