the weight of water

from Blind Sober by Little Big Toe

lyrics

Beach sand runs through fingers like a salamander
Squirming like an infant would in case of danger
Muscle twitching, nervous itching
Wave to land tides
Building bodies, model drawings…the weight of water

Giant man destroys my homeland
Soldier down, an evening wife’s gown worn on days of intense malaise
Even if the Sanskrit wasn’t Greek to me

Magnetically drawn to you like the alphabet on a refrigerator
Drawn on paper as a hologram through the reflection of your cornea

I’ve found a circulatory vessel to travel intravenously
The doctor told me to beware of infections and gave me these pills to drink
Penicillin killing toxins behind the bone debris
Walk backwards through a crowded room without anyone noticing a thing

Lying man makes his fortune poisoning man with his chemical vitamin
Through the hands of unconscious merchants
Even if the Sanskrit wasn’t Greek to me
