lyrics

toil is gone sometimes
foil covering pizza in the fridge
tossing the trash

a wait for nothing
beneath the fall of
brick refracted light
on my shoulders outside

it would squeeze me if i let it
i keep it out so nothing can hurt me

but inside, my hot water body
bubbles with excess heat
black
like my teeth
which bleed the very
same tar
that you will find dinosaurs in
locked through time
yes, inside,
the power cords plot against me in their bundle
a corner of the house refuses to get clean

no windex discourse
back and forth with a rag
on this stain will do
and
under the small of my sweaty back
a cool bit of air wipes me too
