Stand back
precious one!
Perhaps you cannot see,
but covered I lie
in fleshless wounds

Painfully reopened
with each touch.
Full of an ooze
toxic and caustic
to porcelain skin.

Though you've never
heard my cries in the night
be thankful!
For the constant ring
from the words I sing
deafens and collapses
all meanings and senses

Tell me about
what you want to forget
That I may become.
Constant reminder.
Lay down before me
all fears and regrets
dragged out down the line.

Hesitation cramps these hands
cracks my voice
and at times it seems
pleasure,
relaxation,
elation, eludes every moment,
Dim lights in the fog of past.

Since you seem intent to share
my unbearable sufferings,
I'd only be so happy to oblige.
For I too was born under a bad sign.
Butterfly knives in my belly.
Uncertainty.
Anxiety.
closest friends.

Let's learn to live as one,
to awaken with the new dawn.
Never to stand alone,
but by choice or conviction.

Together, let's awaken calamity's dawn.

Our lifetime
seals the fate of all lifelines.
Less than two centuries
self fullfillment of prophecy.

Still we're ready
to turn and face
ancient debts,
tidal shadows,
rising screams.
For then we'll know
from beginning to end
what happened

Buried together,
beneath ancient debts,
finally paid
though repossessed.
