A Tributary In Servitude 18 Cypress Of Cyrus

my belly's mark betrays the path I have taken on earth's threshing floor.

My songs are not entirely mine

the melody belongs to someone else— I'm only a hitman for the plot.

I'm emptying my weaknesses into the sea— I want my strength renewed from source; time rises and falls on mind's beach-sands

man-d.a.m.ners undoing themselves.

Again, my father thunders in the deep the mountains rise; the valleys sink mountains are damsels jingling the bell

The valleys sit mourning the miner who can neither
