lyrics

surely go
sadly went
bodies fixed in lattices
linked in crisscross patterns
there’s no separation now

stories make shadows, too
light narrow through letter holes
gaps in g’s and gaps in o’s
gaps along the well-lit way

hell and all, hullabaloo
lashing at our unlikely arc
bend in bits or break apart
and reel your pieces in

stories make shadows, too
light behind and dark the shapes
the words project on where we’re aimed,
on where we’re pointed now

each with others
ghostly rattlings
shake all your parts and your sub-parts shake too
shake all your parts and your sub-parts shake too
each with others
shake all your parts and your sub-parts shake too
