Health Surface |
Places of sickness nurse me cold |
Attendant whiteness glare in dark |
Straighten out the winding sheet |
Twisted round in poorest dreams |
Shattered proofing of the lost |
Splinter shackled, little wounds |
Of cruelty and truth, they tie |
The one way sickness up inside |
Regressive smile, a baby’s laugh |
A learnt contortion of the mouth |
Places of laughter leave me cool |
Hot fire dying down to ash |
Beauty breezes through so swift |
Endless roundabout of grief |
Not much to ask, a rightful place |
Where nothing matters, but can’t touch |
Without a sinking heart, this sigh |
Could be the wind among the leaves |
This pain does not belong to me |
They’ve taken everything away |
To nurse the sicknesses of loss |
Instilled with fear and bleachy guilt |
Impatient winds up in her cloth |
The tired shoes are splitting up |
With weighty promises of love |
Waiting for the last to fall away |
Buckle noose around the strap |
All that separates the flesh |
From green grass or sinking mud |
Stagnating, knowing the delusion |
Clean sheets waiting for a body |
Slapped into life and slowly gutted |
A place of sickness is to die in |
Tired of the cruelty and lying |
Drip-fed tears of the forsaken |
They say, «Well soon have you up and walking» |
Took the prison for a stronghold |
Took the lies for a love-song |
Paid for life on a shoestring |
Waiting for the last to fall away |
Buckle noose around the strap |
All that separates the flesh |
From green grass or sinking mud |
